Warning and Safety instructions

Miele vacuum cleaner bags are disposable and intended to be

used only once. Do not attempt to re-use. Blocked pores reduce the efficiency of the cleaner.

Use only Miele approved dustbags, filters and accessories.

This will ensure optimum performance of the appliance throughout its life.

Cleaning, maintenance and repairs

Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains supply when

you have finished using it, as well as for maintenance work and cleaning. Switch it off at the wall socket and unplug it.

Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the mains supply. If moisture gets into the appliance there is the risk of an

electric shock.

The electro suction hose and the electro telescopic tube contain

electrical wires. The plug connectors must not come in contact with water. Do not attempt to clean them with a damp cloth. Danger of electric shock.

Repairs should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and

competent person in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

If the cable is damaged it should be replaced together with a

complete cable rewind by a Miele ser- vice technician.

Disposing of an old appliance

When disposing of an old appliance, cut the cable off the

appliance as close to the cleaner as possible and cut the plug off. The plug cut from the cable should be rendered useless and then disposed of and on no account be inserted into any socket elsewhere in the house (electric shock hazard). Dispose of the appliance in a responsible manner.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
