When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USING THIS APPLIANCE
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future user.
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 fit in a polarized outlet only 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,
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.
~The electrical outlet must be fitted
with a 15 A fuse.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use
~Do not use on people or animals.
~Do not use outdoors or on wet
surfaces. Only dry surfaces should be
vacuumed.
~Use only as described in this
manual. Use only Miele recommended
accessories.
~Do not alter or modify the vacuum
cleaner.
~This appliance is intended for
household use only.
~Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used near children.
~Never use the vacuum cleaner
without the dustbag or filters in place.
Otherwise it could be damaged.
~If a dustbag is not inserted, the dust
compartment lid will not close. Do not
force it shut.
~Do not leave the vacuum plugged
in. Unplug it from the outlet when not in
use and before servicing.
~On the underside of the vacuum
handpiece is a metal insert designed to
absorb static electricity. Please make
certain that your hand remains around
this metal insert when vacuuming.
~Persons which lack physical,
sensory or mental abilities or
experience with the machine should not
use it without supervision or instruction
by a responsible person.
~Unwind the cord completely to aid
the vacuum cleaner in dissipating heat.
~This vacuum should not be used to
entrap or retain any hazardous
materials.
~Do not use the vacuum cleaner to
pick up liquids or damp dirt. This could
impair the electrical safety of the
vacuum cleaner. Wait for freshly
shampooed carpets to dry.
~Do not vacuum anything that is
burning or smoking such as cigarettes,
matches or hot ashes. The vacuum
cleaner could catch fire.
~Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers can conduct electricity.
~Do not use to pick up any flammable
or combustible liquids, such as
gasoline, or use in areas where they
may be present. The vacuum cleaner
could explode.
~Do not vacuum up items which are
heavy, hard or have sharp edges. They
could cause a blockage and damage
the appliance.
~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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~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 the power cord, hair, loose
clothing, fingers and all parts of the
body away from openings and moving
parts.
~Do not place anything into the
openings of the vacuum cleaner. Do
not use if any openings are blocked;
keep them free of dust, lint, hair, or
anything that may reduce air flow.
~This appliance is equipped with a
power cord reel. Hold plug when
rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow
plug to whip when rewinding.
~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.
~Monitor the dustbag change
indicator and inspect all filters regularly.
For best performance, the dustbag
and filters should be replaced when
necessary. A full bag or blocked filter
will reduce the vacuum cleaner’s
suction power. A temperature limiter
automatically switches the vacuum
cleaner off if it gets too hot, see
"Frequently asked questions".
Using accessories
~The hose and the telescopic wand
contain electrical wires. Do not use the
vacuum cleaner if these parts are
damaged, cut or punctured. Avoid
picking up sharp objects. Danger of
electric shock!
~Unplug the vacuum when changing
accessories, especially the Hose,
Telescopic wand, Turbobrush and
Powerbrush.
~To avoid the risk of injury when
vacuuming with a Miele Power or
Turbobrush do not touch the rotating
roller brush. Danger of injury.
~The socket on the vacuum cleaner
(depending on model) must only be
used for the Miele Powerbrush
specified for use with this appliance.
~Danger of injury. The Miele
Powerbrush is a motor driven
accessory for use only with Miele
vacuum cleaners. The vacuum cleaner
must not be used with another
manufacturer’s powerbrush.
~Do not use the vacuum cleaner
without an accessory attached. The rim
could be damaged and injuries could
result from sharp edges.
~Miele dustbags are disposable and
intended to be used only once. Do not
attempt to reuse. An over stuffed
dustbag will reduce the efficiency of the
vacuum cleaner.
~Only use genuine Miele dustbags
with the Miele quality signet and
original Miele filters and accessories.
Only then will the manufacturer
guarantee its safety.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Cleaning, maintenance and
repairs
~Turn the vacuum cleaner off after
each use and before every cleaning /
maintenance. Pull the plug from the
outlet.
~Never submerge the vacuum
cleaner in water. Clean only with a dry
cloth or slightly damp cloth when
disconnected from the mains supply. If
moisture gets into the appliance there
is a risk of electric shock.
~The electro-suction hose and the
telescopic wand contain electrical
wires. The plug connectors must not
come in contact with water. These
items may only be cleaned with a dry
cloth, no moisture can touch them.
Danger of electric shock.
~Repairs must only be performed by
an authorized service agent in
accordance with national and local
safety regulations. Unauthorized repairs
could cause injury or machine damage.
~If the power cord is damaged it
should be replaced along with a new
cable reel by Miele Technical Service.
Disposing of an old appliance
~Before discarding an old vacuum
cleaner, please cut off the power cord
and render the plug useless. Ensure
the appliance presents no danger to
children while being stored for
disposal.
