Technical safety

Charge the robot vacuum cleaner at an ambient temperature
between 10 °C and 45 °C.

The battery and the base station are designed for use with this
Miele robot vacuum cleaner. For safety reasons, the robot vacuum
cleaner must not be used with a battery or base station produced by
another manufacturer.

Only use the parts supplied for charging the robot vacuum cleaner
(base station, power supply unit, power adapter).

Reliable and safe operation of this robot vacuum cleaner can only
be assured if the base station has been connected to the mains
electricity supply.

Do not attach any adhesive labels to the front of the base station
as this conceals an infrared transmitter. Do not place any items in
front of it.

Stop using the rechargeable battery immediately if you notice an
unusual smell from it, if liquid is leaking from it, if it is significantly
overheating or if it is discoloured or deformed. Dispose of the battery
immediately (see safety note “Disposing of the battery” at the end of
this section as well as “Caring for the environment” – “Disposing of
old batteries”).

Batteries and rechargeable batteries will deplete over time. They
can then leak corrosive fluids. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
In the event of contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical
advice.

AUS/NZ: To deal with leaking batteries, refer to the Safety Data
Sheet (contact Miele to request a copy).
