Warning and Safety instructions
Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or is still glowing e.g. cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether
glowing or apparently extinguished. The cleaner might catch fire.
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner, such as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
The filter system in the vacuum cleaner may not filter it completely, causing the toner to be blown back into the room by the fan.
Do not vacuum up any inflammable or combustible liquids or gases
and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are stored. The cleaner might explode.
Do not vacuum up any
suction hose can become blocked and damaged.
Floor attachments, accessories and tubes must not be used at head level to avoid the risk of injury,
e.g. to eyes and ears.
Do not carry the appliance by the cable.
-Keep the cable away from sharp edges and do not let it be squashed at all, for example, under a door.
-Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
A damaged cable, plug or socket is a safety hazard. The appliance must not be used if any of these have suffered damage.
Monitor the change dustbag indicator and change the dustbag
if necessary. Check the exhaust and dust compartment filters at the same time and change them too if necessary. A full bag or blocked filter will reduce the suction power of the cleaner. A temperature limiter switches the vacuum cleaner off automatically if it gets too hot. See "Problem solving guide".
Do not use aroma capsules if your cleaner is fitted with an Active
HEPA filter or an Active Air Clean filter. The active charcoal layer in the filter will absorb the aroma from the capsules rendering them ineffective.
Using accessories
To avoid the risk of injury when vacuuming with a Miele
Electrobrush or Turbobrush, do not touch the rotating roller brush.
The socket on the vacuum cleaner must only be used for the Miele
Electrobrush specified for use with this appliance.
The Miele Electrobrush is a motor driven accessory for use only with
Miele vacuum cleaners. The cleaner must not be used with an electrobrush produced by another manufacturer.
It is not advisable to vacuum directly with the handle, i.e. without
an accessory attached as the rim could get damaged and you could hurt yourself on sharp edges.
