Disposal of packing material

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for disposal

and can normally be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic, wrappings,

bags etc. are disposed of safely and

kept out of the reach of babies and

young children. Danger of suffocation.

Rather than just throwing these

materials away, please recycle them.

Disposing of the dustbag and

filters

These are made from environmentally

friendly materials, and can be disposed

of with the normal household waste, as

long as they have been used

exclusively for general household dust.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances

often contain materials which, if

handled or disposed of incorrectly,

could be potentially hazardous to

human health and to the environment.

They are, however, essential for the

correct functioning of your appliance.

Please do not therefore dispose of it

with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre and ensure that it presents no

danger to children while being stored

for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected

from the mains electricity supply by a

competent person. The plug must be

rendered useless and the cable cut off

directly behind it to prevent misuse.

See the "Warning and Safety" section of

this booklet for further details.

Description of the appliance

This appliance meets statutory

safety requirements. To avoid the

risk of personal injury or damage to

the appliance you should read these

operating instructions carefully

before using it for the first time. They

give important information on the

safety, operation and care of the

appliance. Please keep these

operating instructions in a safe

place for reference, and pass them

on to any future users.

Correct use

This vacuum cleaner must only be

used for domestic household

purposes to vacuum dry floor surfaces.

Do not use on people or animals.

Any other usage, modification or

alteration is at the owner's risk and

could be dangerous.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable

for damage resulting from improper or

incorrect use of the appliance.

Safety with children

This appliance is not a toy! To

avoid the risk of injury do not allow

children to play on or near it, or to play

with the controls. Supervise its use by

older children and the elderly or infirm.

Before using for the first time

Check the packaging, the vacuum

cleaner and accessories for any

signs of damage. Do not use a

damaged appliance: it could be

dangerous.

Ensure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and

frequency) match the mains electricity

supply. It is essential that they match to

avoid damage to the appliance.

The plug must be fitted with a 13 A

fuse (UK).

Use

The electro suction hose and the

electro telescopic tube contain

electrical wires. Do not use the vacuum

cleaner if these parts show any sign of

damage. Danger of electric shock.

It important to switch the vacuum

cleaner off before changing over

accessories and floorheads, especially

an Electro- or Turbobrush.

To avoid the risk of damage, do not

use the vacuum cleaner without the

dustbag, dust compartment filter and

exhaust filter in place.

If a dustbag is not inserted, the

dust compartment cover does not

normally close. Do not force it.

There is a metal inlay underneath

the handle which is designed to

protect the user from electrostatic

discharges. Please make sure that you

keep your hand in constant contact with

this metal strip during vacuuming.

Do not vacuum up any water, liquid

or damp dirt. This will cause major

faults and could seriously impair the

functioning and electrical safety of the

appliance. Wait until any freshly

cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor

coverings are completely dry before

attempting to vacuum.

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

sharp-edged objects. The electro

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.

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.
