E) HANDLE HEIGHT AND BEATER BAR ADJUSTMENT

To lower the body of the cleaner, step on the foot pedal at the bottom left corner of the vacuum cleaner. Once the body is reclined, the brush will automatically start to rotate.

If you wish to stop the beater bar, simple return the cleaner into the upright position. In case you want to stop the beater bar while the cleaner is in the reclined position, push the beater bar stop pedal located on the left side of the cleaning head, just above the foot pedal.

1. Upright position

The body should be in an upright position when cleaning tools are used.

2. Middle position

For normal cleaning, press the foot pedal and pull back the handle to a comfortable angle. Release the pedal to lower the cleaning head.

3. Low position

For cleaning under furniture, press the pedal a second time and lower the handle down to the floor as shown.

F) AUTOMATIC HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Your Miele vacuum cleaner has an Automatic Height Adjustment, feature which adjusts the cleaning head to the proper height of any carpet pile.

This system allows you to move from one carpeted area to another, without having to make manual adjustments.

G) FLOOR SCRATCH PREVENTION

To prevent scratching floors while using the vacuum cleaner on tiled or polished floors, two small wheels are built into the base plate.

These two wheels also make it easy to slide the vacuum cleaner across carpeted floors.
