en - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the power
cord, and be careful not to damage the cord when with-
drawing the plug from the socket. Keep the cord away
from sharp edges and do not let it get pinched, for exam-
ple, under a door. Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over
the cord. This could damage the cord, plug or socket. The
appliance must not be used if any of these have suffered
damage.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the power cord is
damaged. If the power cord is damaged it must be re-
placed together with the cord reel. For safety reasons this
must only be done by Miele Technical Service or a Miele
authorized service technician.

When vacuuming fine dust, e.g., sawdust, sand, plaster,
flour, talcum powder, etc., electrostatic charges build up
naturally. Under certain conditions these charges will be
released. To avoid the unpleasant effects of these dis-
charges, a metal inlay has been incorporated into the un-
derside of the handle. Please make sure that you keep
your hand in constant contact with this metal strip during
vacuuming.

Do not allow the vacuum cleaner or Electrobrush, elec-
tric wand or electric hose to get wet. Clean only with a dry
or slightly damp cloth. If any moisture gets into the appli-
ance, danger of electric shock.

The Electrobrush, electric wand and electric hose con-
tain power cords. The plug connectors must not come in
contact with water. Danger of electric shock. They should
only be cleaned with a dry cloth.
