The dustbag has a closing flap which
closes automatically when the dust
compartment lid is raised to prevent
any dust escaping.

Fit the new dustbag into the holder as
far as it will go. Leave it folded up
when you take it out of the box.

It should be unfolded as far as pos-
sible in the dust compartment.
 Close the dust compartment lid se-
curely, making sure it clicks into posi-
tion. Take care not to trap the dust-
bag when doing so. The dustbag is
then automatically guided into posi-
tion for vacuuming.

The lid will not close without a
dustbag in place. Do not force it!

of original Miele dustbags contains one
AirClean exhaust filter. Multipacks con-
tain four AirClean filters.
