While the vacuum cleaner is under warranty, repairs
should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service
technician. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorised
service technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons can cause considerable danger to users.
Cleaning
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a
dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from
the mains supply.
Correct use
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the vacuum
cleaner bag, motor protection filter and exhaust filter in
place.
It is not possible to close the dust compartment lid if the
vacuum cleaner bag is not inserted. Do not force it.
Before closing the dust compartment lid, always make
sure that the vacuum cleaner bag has been inserted far
enough and has clearly clicked into position.
Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or is
still glowing e.g. cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether glowing
or apparently extinguished.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust.
Toner, such as that used in printers and photocopiers, can
conduct electricity.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up any water,
liquid or damp dirt. Wait until any freshly cleaned or sham-
pooed rugs or carpets are completely dry before attempting
to vacuum.
Do not vacuum up any inflammable or combustible li-
quids or gases and do not vacuum in areas where such
substances are stored.
