Correct use
~
To avoid the risk of injury when
vacuuming with a Miele Electrobrush or
Turbobrush, do not touch the rotating
roller brush.
~
To avoid the risk of damage, do not
use the vacuum cleaner without the
dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter in place.
~
If a dustbag is not inserted, the dust
compartment cover does not normally
close. Do not force it.
~
Do not vacuum up anything which
has been burning or is still glowing e.g.
cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether
glowing or apparently extinguished.
The cleaner might catch fire.
~
Do not vacuum up any water, liquid
or damp dirt. This will cause major
faults and could seriously impair the
functioning and electrical safety of the
appliance. Wait until any freshly
cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor
coverings are completely dry before
attempting to vacuum.
~
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
The filter system in the vacuum cleaner
may not filter it completely, causing the
toner to be blown back into the room by
the fan.
~
Do not vacuum up any inflammable
or combustible liquids or gases and do
not vacuum in areas where such
substances are stored. The cleaner
might explode.
~
Do not vacuum up items which are
heavy, hard or have sharp edges. The
vacuum cleaner and electro suction
hose can become blocked and
damaged.
~
Floor attachments, accessories and
tubes must not be used at head level to
avoid the risk of injury, e.g. to eyes and
ears.
~
Monitor the change dustbag
indicator and change the dustbag if
necessary. Check the exhaust and dust
compartment filters at the same time
and change them too if necessary. A
full bag or blocked filter will reduce the
suction power of the cleaner. A
temperature limiter switches the
vacuum cleaner off automatically if it
gets too hot. See "Problem solving
guide".
