Warning and Safety instructions
6
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only
be replaced with genuine Miele replacement parts.
The packaging material protects the vacuum cleaner from trans-
port damage. We recommend you keep the packaging for transport
purposes.
Cleaning
Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner or any accessories supplied
with it in water.
Clean the vacuum cleaner and accessories only with a dry cloth or
slightly damp cloth and mild washing-up liquid.
Exception for fine dust filter:
if the dust filter is heavily soiled, you can rinse the pleated side of the
filter and the filter mat under cold running water.
Do not use washing-up liquid or cleaning brushes. Do not use sharp
or pointed objects. After cleaning, allow the fine dust filter and the fil-
ter mat to dry in a well ventilated room for a minimum of 24 hours,
placing the filter with the pleated side facing up.
Correct use
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust container, fine
dust filter with filter mat, filter frame, pre-filter, dust compartment
seal and exhaust filter.
Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or is still
glowing e.g. cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether glowing or apparently
extinguished.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up any water, liquid or
damp dirt. Wait until any freshly cleaned or shampooed rugs or car-
pets are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust. Toner, such
as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
