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 filter bag change
indicator and inspect all filters regularly.
For best performance, the filter bag
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 filter bags are disposable and
intended to be used only once. Do not
attempt to reuse. An over stuffed filter
bag will reduce the efficiency of the
vacuum cleaner.
~
Only use genuine Miele filter bags
with the Miele quality signet and
original Miele filters and accessories.
Only then will the manufacturer
guarantee its safety.
