Adjusting the suction
You can adjust the suction power to suit
the type of flooring. By reducing the
suction power the floor brush can be
pushed easier.
The symbols on the controls indicate the
type of use the settings are suitable for:
#
curtains, lightweight fabrics
$
upholstery, cushions
%
thick pile carpets, rugs and
runners
*
energy saving, daily vacuuming
with low noise level
(
low pile carpets
)
hard flooring and intensive
cleaning of carpets
When using the AirTeQ Combination
Floor Tool, if the suction seems too
high, reduce the suction until the
tool is easier to move across the
floor.
Opening the air inlet valve (see fig. 25)
(depending on model)
The air inlet valve can be opened to
quickly reduce the suction power of the
tool being used, e.g. when moving from
a carpet to an area rug.
^
Open the air inlet valve far enough to
reduce the suction power.
Opening the air inlet valve reduces the
power to the tool being used.
Park-System (see fig. 26)
(cannot be used with Powerbrush
SEB 228 / EB03 and SEB 236 / EB01)
The Park system allows you to
conveniently park the wand and floor
brush on the vacuum cleaner during
brief pauses.
^
Insert the lower clip on the floor brush
into the slot on the end of the vacuum
cleaner from above.
When vacuuming on a sloping
surface, e.g. on a ramp, push all
telescopic tubing parts completely
together.
Maintenance and care
,
Turn off and unplug the vacuum
cleaner before performing any
maintenance work.
The Miele filter system consists of the
following three components.
– Dustbag
– Exhaust filter
– Dust compartment filter
Each of these components must be
changed periodically to maintain the
vacuum cleaner’s efficiency.
Only use Miele dustbags, filters and
accessories with the "Original Miele"
logo. Only then can the suction
power of the vacuum cleaner reach
its optimum potential creating the
best possible cleaning results.
