Disposal of packing material

The transport and protective packing

material has been selected from materi-

als which are environmentally friendly

for disposal and can normally be recy-

cled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,

bags etc. are disposed safely and kept

out of the reach of babies and young

children. Danger of suffocation!

Rather than just throwing these materi-

als away, please ensure they are of-

fered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances may contain materials

which can be reclaimed or recycled.

Please contact your dealer, your local

waste collection centre or scrap mer-

chant about potential recycling

schemes.

Before disposing of an old appliance

first make it unusable. Disconnect it

from the mains, cut the cable off the ap-

pliance as close to the cleaner as pos-

sible and cut the plug off. The plug cut

from the cable should be rendered use-

less and then disposed of and on no

account be inserted into any socket

elsewhere in the house (electric shock

hazard).

Make appropriate arrangements for its

safe disposal and make sure that the

appliance presents no danger to chil-

dren while being stored for disposal.

Disposing of the dustbag and

filters

These are made from environmentally

friendly materials and can be disposed

of with the normal household waste.

The dustbag should only be disposed

of in this way if it has been used exclu-

sively for general household dust.

Caring for the environment

The illustration shows the maximum number of features available on these Miele

vacuum cleaners.

Some models are supplied with a Miele Electrobrush or Turbobrush as standard

(not illustrated). Separate operating instructions are supplied for these brushes.

Description of the appliance

This appliance meets statutory

safety requirements. Inappropriate

use can however lead to personal

injury and damage to property.

Read the operating instructions

carefully before starting to use this

appliance. They give important infor-

mation on the safety, operation and

care of the appliance. This way you

will prevent the risk of accidents or

damage to the appliance. Please

keep these operating instructions in

a safe place for reference, and pass

them on to any future users.

Correct usage

This vacuum cleaner must only be

used in a domestic household situ-

ation to vacuum dry floor surfaces. Do

not use on people or animals.

Any other usage is at the owner’s risk

and could be dangerous.

The manufacturer cannot be held re-

sponsible for damage resulting from im-

proper or incorrect use of the appli-

ance.

Children

Do not let small children play with

the appliance or operate it. Please

supervise its use by older children and

the elderly or infirm.

Before using for the first time

A damaged vacuum cleaner can

be dangerous. Check the packag-

ing, the vacuum cleaner and accesso-

ries for any signs of damage. Do not

use a damaged appliance.

Ensure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and fre-

quency) match the mains electricity

supply. It is essential that they match to

avoid damage to the appliance.

The plug must be fitted with a 13A

fuse (UK).

Daily use

It important to switch the vacuum

cleaner off before changing over

accessories and floor heads, especially

a turbo or electro brush.

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 dis-

charges. Please make sure that you

keep your hand in constant contact with

this metal strip during vacuuming. This

way any build-up of electrostatic

charge will be rendered ineffective.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not vacuum up liquids or damp

dirt. This will cause major faults

and could seriously impair the function-

ing and electrical safety of the appli-

ance. Wait until any freshly cleaned or

shampooed carpets or floor coverings

are completely dry before attempting to

vacuum.

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 and so the

toner could be blown back into the at-

mosphere 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 items which are

heavy, hard or have sharp edges.

They could cause a blockage and dam-

age the appliance.

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 pull or carry the appliance

by the cable. When disconnecting

from the mains socket pull by the plug

and not by the cable.

- Keep the cable away from sharp

edges and do not let it be squashed,

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 indi-

cator 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 hamper the

suction power of the cleaner. A temper-

ature limiter switches the vacuum

cleaner off automatically if it gets too

hot, see section "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.

Warning and Safety instructions

Using accessories

The socket on the vacuum cleaner

(depending on model) must only

be used for the Miele Electrobrush

specified for use with this appliance.

To avoid the risk of injury when

vacuuming with a Miele Electro- or

Turbobrush do not touch the rotating

roller brush.

It is not advisable to vacuum di-

rectly with the handle, i.e. without

an accessory attached as the rim could

get damaged and you could hurt your-

self on sharp edges. Danger of injury.

Miele vacuum cleaner bags are

disposable and intended to be

used only once. Do not attempt to

re-use. Blocked pores reduce the effi-

ciency of the cleaner.

Use only genuine Miele dustbags,

filters and accessories. This en-

sures optimum performance of the vac-

uum cleaner throughout its life.

Cleaning, maintenance and re-

pairs

Always disconnect the vacuum

cleaner from the mains supply for

maintenance work and for cleaning.

Switch off at the wall socket and re-

move the plug. Pull on the plug and not

the cable.

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.

Repairs may 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.

If the cable is damaged it should

be replaced together with a com-

plete cable rewind by a Miele service

technician.

Disposing of an old appliance

When disposing of an old appli-

ance cut the cable off the appli-

ance as close to the cleaner as possi-

ble and cut the plug off. The plug cut

from the cord should be rendered use-

less and then disposed of and on no

account be inserted into any socket

elsewhere in the house (electric shock

hazard). See section "Disposal of your

old appliance" earlier in this booklet for

further advice.

The manufacturer cannot be held lia-

ble for damage caused by non-com-

pliance with these Warning and

Safety instructions.

Warning and Safety instructions

Attaching the suction hose

(depending on model).

The dust compartment shutter is de-

signed for hygienic handling and pre-

vents dust and odours escaping.

fore putting the cleaner away (e.g. in a

cupboard).

tion tube

(depending on model)

One part of the telescopic tube is

packed inside the other and can be ad-

justed to suit your height for comfort-

able vacuum cleaning.

^Press the telescopic tube release

button (see arrow) to release the

tubes. Draw out or push in the inner

tube to adjust to the required height,

then release the button. The tube is

locked in position.

reached its maximum length. Do not

force it beyond this length!
