Canister vacuum accessories

By attaching a hose to the extension
tube of the vacuum, the upright vacuum
can be used as a canister vacuum.

This allows easy cleaning of taller items
such as bookshelves, furniture, blinds,
etc. Vacuuming inside closets or under
beds is also made easier.

Important

When buying canister accessories for
your vacuum, be sure to tell your autho-
rized Miele vacuum dealer the correct
model number of your upright so that
you may purchase the correct accesso-
ries.
