When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed,

including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

USING THIS APPLIANCE

WARNING-

To reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock or injury:

Before using

Check the voltage rating of the

vacuum cleaner before connecting

the power cord to an electrical outlet.

Your power source should correspond

with the voltage rating plate located on

the underside of the vacuum. Use only

household AC outlets. Never use DC

power sources. If you are not sure of

your home’s voltage supply, consult a

qualified electrician. Connecting the

vacuum cleaner to a higher voltage

than indicated in these instructions may

result in damage to the vacuum cleaner

or injury.

To reduce the risk of electric shock,

this appliance has a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other.) This

plug will only fit in a polarized outlet one

way. If the plug does not fit fully in the

outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does

not fit, contact a qualified electrician to

install the proper outlet. Do not alter the

plug in any way.

A damaged vacuum cleaner can

be dangerous. Check the

packaging, the vacuum cleaner and

accessories for any signs of damage.

Do not use a damaged appliance.

Do not use with a damaged cord or

plug. If the appliance is not

working as it should, has been

dropped, damaged, left outdoors or

submerged in water, bring it to a

service center.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use

Do not use the vacuum on people

or animals.

Do not use outdoors or on wet

surfaces. Only dry surfaces should

be vacuumed.

Only use the vacuum as described

in this manual. Use only Miele

recommended accessories.

The manufacturer cannot be held

responsible for damage caused by

non-compliance with these "Important

Safety Instructions". This appliance is

intended strictly for household use only.

This vacuum should not be used to

entrap or retain any hazardous

materials.

Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to

be used as a toy. Close attention is

necessary when used by or near

children.

Do not pull or carry by the cord,

use the cord as a handle, close a

door on the cord, or pull the cord

around sharp edges or corners. Do not

run the appliance over the cord. Keep

the cord away from heated surfaces.

Do not unplug by pulling on the

cord. To unplug, grasp the plug not

the cord.

Do not handle the plug or vacuum

with wet hands.

Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers

and all parts of the body away from

openings and moving parts.

Turn off all controls before

unplugging.

Use extra care when cleaning on

stairs.

Floor attachments, accessories

and wands must not be used at

head level to avoid injury to eyes and

ears.

Do not use to pick up flammable or

combustible liquids, such as

gasoline, or use in areas where they

may be present.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner to

pick up liquids, this could impair

the electrical safety of the vacuum

cleaner. Wait for freshly shampooed

carpets to dry.

Do not pick up anything that is

burning or smoking, such as

cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.

Do not vacuum up items which are

heavy, hard or have sharp edges.

They could cause a blockage and

damage the appliance.

Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,

such as that used in printers and

photocopiers, can conduct electricity.

connecting or disconnecting the

Electrobrush, Turbobrush or an

accessory.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Do not use without dustbag and

filters in place. Do not turn on or

attempt to operate the vacuum cleaner

unless the dustbag, dust compartment

filter and exhaust filter are in place.

Only use genuine Miele double-layer

dustbags and filters (see "Maintenance

and care" for instructions on how to

insert the dustbag and filters). If a

dustbag has not been inserted

properly, the dust compartment cover

will not close. Do not use force!

Unwind the cable completely to aid

the vacuum in dissipating heat.

A temperature limiter automatically

switches off the vacuum cleaner if

it gets too hot (see "Frequently asked

questions.").

On the underside of the vacuum

handpiece is a metal insert

designed to absorb electrostatic

charge. Please make certain that your

hand remains around this metal insert.

Accessory use

The Miele Electrobrush is a motor

driven accessory for use only with

Miele vacuum cleaners. It must not be

used with vacuum cleaners produced

by another manufacturer.

When vacuuming with the Miele

Electrobrush or Turbobrush, do not

touch the rotating brush.

When using the vacuum with an

Electrobrush and current-carrying

hose use caution. The hose contains

electrical wires. Do not use if damaged,

cut or punctured. Avoid picking up

sharp objects.

The socket on the vacuum cleaner

(depending on model) must only

be used with the Miele Electrobrush

specified for use with this appliance.

Only use attachments specified by

Miele. Do not use the blower to

operate paint sprayers or similar

devices that emit volatile or toxic

vapors.

Monitor the dustbag change

indicator and inspect all filters

regularly. To ensure efficient suction,

clean or replace them when necessary

according to the operating instructions.

To guarantee safety, only use genuine

Miele dustbags, filters and accessories.

disposable and are only to be used

once. Do not attempt to reuse.

Do not use the vacuum without an

accessory attached. The rim could

be damaged and injuries could result

from sharp edges.
