How the FilterBag change indicator
works
The FilterBag change indicator is set for
normal household dust. This generally
contains a mixture of dust, hair,
threads, carpet lint, grit, etc.
However, if the cleaner has been used
to vacuum up fine dust, such as plaster,
brick dust, cement or flour, the pores of
the FilterBag will become blocked very
quickly.
This affects the air permeability of the
bag, and the marker will indicate that
the bag is "full" even when it is not. If
this happens you must still change the
FilterBag because suction power will be
greatly reduced by blocked pores in the
FilterBag.
If, on the other hand, a large amount of
hair and carpet lint which typically con-
tains a lot of air is vacuumed up, the in-
dicator may fail to react even though
the bag is full. You should still change it.
Both these extremes can occur.

How to replace the FilterBag

(Fig. 29 + 30)
 Press the release catches at the side
of the hose connector, and remove
the hose from the socket (Fig. 02).
 Press the release button on the re-
cessed grip and raise the dust com-
partment lid as far as it will go (Fig.
09).
The FilterBag has a flap which closes
automatically when the dust compart-
ment lid is raised to prevent any dust
escaping.
 Pull the FilterBag out by the grip on
the collar.

 Fit the new FilterBag into the red
holder as far as it will go. Leave it
folded up when you take it out of the
box.
 Close the dust compartment lid se-
curely, making sure it clicks into posi-
tion. Take care not to trap the Fil-
terBag when doing so.
An empty operation lock prevents
the dust compartment lid from clos-
ing without a FilterBag in place. Do
not use force!
 Insert the hose connector into the
suction socket on the vacuum
cleaner until it clicks into position. To
do this, line up the guides on the two
pieces (Fig. 01).
When to change the motor protection
filter
Replace this filter every time you start a
new packet of filter bags.
Every packet of original Miele filter bags
contains a motor protection filter. Multi-
packs contain four motor protection fil-
ters.
How to change the motor protection
filter (Fig. 31)
 Open the dust compartment lid.
 Pull the filter bag out by the grip on
the collar.
 Lift up the filter frame until it clicks
and remove the old motor protection
filter. Hold by the clean, unsoiled sec-
tion to remove it.
 Replace with a new motor protection
filter.
 Close the filter frame.
