IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This vacuum cleaner complies with current safety requirements.

Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and dam-

age to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the vacuum cleaner,

please read the operating instructions carefully before using it for

the first time. They contain important information on its safety, op-

eration and maintenance.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them

on to any future user.

Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the power supply

when you have finished using it, before changing any accessories,

as well as for maintenance work and cleaning. Turn the vacuum

cleaner off and unplug it.

Correct use

 This vacuum cleaner is intended for cleaning flooring in domestic

households and similar residential environments.

 This vacuum cleaner can be used for all normal cleaning of car-

pets, rugs and hard flooring.

 This vacuum cleaner is not intended for outdoor use.

 This vacuum cleaner is intended for use at altitudes of up to

1300ft (4000m) above sea level.

 The vacuum cleaner must only be used to vacuum dry floor sur-

faces. Do not use on people and animals. Any other usage, modifi-

cation or alteration is not supported by the manufacturer and could

be dangerous.

 Persons which lack physical, sensory or mental abilities or experi-

ence with the machine should not use it without supervision or in-

struction by a responsible person.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety with children

 Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags,

etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children.

 Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy. Close atten-

tion is necessary when used near children.

Technical safety

 Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories, check for

any visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

 Ensure that the connection data on the data plate of the vacuum

cleaner (voltage and frequency) match the household power supply.

Without modifications, the vacuum cleaner is suited for 50Hz or

60Hz.

 The electrical outlet must be fitted with a 15 A fuse.

 Reliable and safe operation of this vacuum cleaner can only be

assured if it has been connected to the electricity supply.

 Repairs must only be performed by an authorized service agent in

accordance with national and local safety regulations. Unauthorized

repairs could cause injury or machine damage. Otherwise the war-

ranty will be void.

 Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the power cord, and

be careful not to damage the cord when withdrawing the plug from

the socket. Keep the cord away from sharp edges and do not let it

get pinched, for example, under a door. Avoid running the vacuum

cleaner over the cord. This could damage the cord, plug or socket.

The appliance must not be used if any of these have suffered dam-

age.

 Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the power cord is damaged. If

the power cord is damaged it must be replaced together with the

cord reel. For safety reasons this must only be done by Miele Techni-

cal Service or a Miele authorized service technician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 When vacuuming, in particular fine dust, e.g. sawdust, sand, plas-

ter, flour, talcum powder etc., electrostatic charges build up naturally.

Under certain conditions these charges will be released. To avoid the

unpleasant effects of these discharges, a metal inlay has been incor-

porated into the underside of the handle. Please make sure that you

keep your hand in constant contact with this metal strip during vacu-

uming.

 Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a dry cloth

or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the electrical supply.

 Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele-authorized service

technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons can cause

considerable danger to users.

 Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts

only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the

safety of the appliance.

Proper use

 To avoid the risk of damage, do not use the vacuum cleaner with-

out the FilterBag, dust compartment filter and exhaust filter in place.

 The dust compartment cover will not close without a FilterBag in-

serted. Do not force it.

 Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or smoking,

e.g., cigarettes, ashes or hot ash, whether glowing or apparently ex-

tinguished.

 Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up any water, liquid or

damp dirt. Wait until any freshly cleaned or shampooed rugs or car-

pets are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.

 Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust. Toner, such

as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.

 Do not vacuum up any flammable or combustible liquids or gases

and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are stored.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Do not vacuum at head height and do not let the suction get any-

where near a person's head.

Accessories

 To avoid the risk of injury when vacuuming with a Miele turbo-

brush, do not touch the rotating roller brush.

 It is not advisable to vacuum directly with the handle, i.e., without

an accessory attached, as the rim could get damaged and you could

hurt yourself on sharp edges.

 Only use genuine FilterBags, filters and accessories with the

"Original Miele" logo on them. Otherwise the manufacturer cannot

guarantee the safety of the product.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mate-

rial

The cardboard box and packing materi-

als protect the appliance during ship-

ping. They have been designed to be

biodegradable and recyclable.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,

bags, etc. are disposed of safely and

kept out of the reach of children. Dan-

ger of suffocation!

Disposing of the FilterBags

and filters

Filterbags and filters are made from en-

vironmentally friendly materials, and can

be disposed of with the normal house-

hold waste, as long as they have been

used exclusively for general household

dust.

Disposing of your old appli-

ance

Before disposing of your old appliance

remove the FilterBag and filters and dis-

pose of them with your household

waste.

Electronic and electrical appliances

contain many valuable materials. They

also contain certain materials, com-

pounds and components which were

essential for their correct functioning

and safety. These could be hazardous

to your health and to the environment if

disposed of with general waste or if

handled incorrectly. Please do not,

therefore, dispose of your old appliance

with general waste.

Instead, please make use of officially

designated collection and disposal

points to dispose of and recycle electri-

cal and electronic appliances. By law,

you are solely responsible for deleting

any personal data from the appliance

prior to disposal. Please ensure that

your old appliance poses no risk to chil-

dren while being stored for disposal.
