Notes on Delegated Regulation
(EU) No. 665/2013 and
666/2013
This vacuum cleaner is a domestic va-
cuum cleaner and is classified as a uni-
versal vacuum cleaner in accordance
with the above-mentioned regulations.
These operating instructions, the EU
data sheet and the online energy effi-
ciency label for this vacuum cleaner are
available to download from the Miele
website at www.miele.com.
The annual energy consumption stated
on the data sheet and on the energy ef-
ficiency label describes the indicative
annual energy consumption (kWh per
year), based on 50 cleaning cycles. Ac-
tual energy consumption depends on
how the vacuum cleaner is used.
All tests and calculations were carried
out according to the following harmon-
ised standards applicable at the time in
due consideration of the published reg-
ulation guidelines of the European
Commission from September 2014:
a) EN 60312-1 Vacuum cleaners for
household use - Part 1: Dry vacuum
cleaners - Methods for measuring the
performance.
b) EN 60704-2-1 Household and similar
electrical appliances - Test code for the
determination of airborne acoustical
noise - Part 2-1: Particular requirements
for vacuum cleaners.
c) EN 60335-2-2 Household and similar
electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-2:
Particular requirements for vacuum
cleaner and water suction appliances.
Not all floorheads and accessories sup-
plied with the vacuum cleaner are inten-
ded for intensive cleaning of carpets or
hard floors as described in the regula-
tions. The following floorheads and set-
tings were used to determine the val-
ues:
For energy consumption and cleaning
class on carpet and hard floors and
sound power level on carpet the univer-
sal floorhead was used in the carpet
position (press the footswitch).
If your vacuum cleaner is supplied as
standard with the SRD hard floorbrush,
this is designed for intensive vacuuming
of hard floors with gaps and crevices
and will have been used to determine
the above values on hard floors.
The values on the EU data sheet and
the energy efficiency label refer exclus-
ively to the combinations and settings
of floorheads on the different floor sur-
faces described here.
Only original Miele dustbags, motor
protection filters and exhaust filters
were used for all measurements.
