Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the cable is damaged.

If the cable is damaged it must be replaced together with a
complete cable rewind. For safety reasons this must only
be done by Miele Service or a Miele authorised service
technician.
Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable,

and be careful not to damage the cable when withdrawing
the plug from the socket. Keep the cable away from sharp
edges and do not let it get squashed, for example, under a
door. Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
This could damage the cable, plug or socket. The appli-
ance must not be used if any of these have suffered dam-
age.
Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorised

service technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons can cause considerable danger to users.
Cleaning
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a

dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from
the mains supply.
Correct use
To avoid the risk of damage, do not use the vacuum

cleaner without the dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter in place.
The dust compartment cover will not close without a

dustbag fitted. Do not force it.
