Disposal of packing material
The packing material protects the
vacuum cleaner from transport
damage. The transport and protective
packing has been selected from
materials which are environmentally
friendly for disposal and can normally
be recycled.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling. Sort packing
materials for disposal according to the
type of material (e.g. plastics or
cardboard).
Disposing of the dustbag and
filters
These are made from environmentally
friendly materials, and can be disposed
of with the normal household waste, as
long as they have been used
exclusively for general household dust.
Disposing of your old vacuum
cleaner
Before disposing of your old vacuum
cleaner, remove the dustbag and filters
and dispose of them with the normal
household waste.
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your vacuum
cleaner. Please do not dispose of your
old vacuum cleaner with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre.
Ensure that your old vacuum cleaner
presents no danger to children while
being stored for disposal.

This vacuum cleaner complies with statutory safety requirements.
Improper use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage
to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the vacuum
cleaner, please read these instructions carefully before using it
for the first time. They contain important information on its safety,
operation and maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users
are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner.
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains supply
when you have finished using it, before changing over
accessories, as well as for maintenance work and cleaning.
Switch the vacuum cleaner off at the wall socket and unplug it.
Correct application
~This vacuum cleaner is designed for domestic use and for use in
similar environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed &
breakfasts and other typical living quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels,
motels or bed & breakfasts.
~This vacuum cleaner can be used for all normal cleaning of
carpets, rugs and robust hard flooring.
~This appliance is not suitable for outdoor use.
~This vacuum cleaner must only be used to vacuum dry floor
surfaces. Do not use on people or animals. Any other usage,
modification or alteration is at the owner's risk and could be
dangerous.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
~This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
Safety with children
~Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
~Older children may only use the appliance when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
~Cleaning of the vacuum cleaner may only be carried out by older
children under the supervision of an adult.
~Supervise children whilst you are using the vacuum cleaner. This
vacuum cleaner is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, do not allow
children to play with it or to use the controls.
Technical safety
~Ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and
frequency) matches the mains electricity supply. This data must
correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance.
~The wall socket must be protected against short circuit by a delay
fuse 16 A or 10 A.
~Check the vacuum cleaner, the electro suction hose, the electro
telescopic wand and the ElectroBrush for damage before using. Do
not use any part if it is damaged.
~The socket on the vacuum cleaner must only be used for Miele
ElectroBrushes specified for use with this appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
~The Miele ElectroBrush is a motor driven accessory for use only
with Miele vacuum cleaners. The vacuum cleaner must not be used
with an ElectroBrush produced by another manufacturer.
~Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorised service
technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous and will void the warranty. Miele cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
~Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the mains cable is damaged. If
the cable is damaged, it must be replaced together with a complete
cable rewind. For safety reasons, this must only be done by a Miele
authorised service technician.
~Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable and be
careful not to damage the cable when withdrawing the plug from the
socket.
Keep the cable away from sharp edges and do not let it be
squashed, for example, under a door.
Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
This could damage the cable, plug or socket and pose a safety
hazard.
~When vacuuming especially fine dust, 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 incorporated into the underside of the handle.
Please make sure that you keep your hand in constant contact with
this metal strip during vacuuming.
~Do not let the vacuum cleaner, the electro suction hose, the
electro telescopic wand or the ElectroBrush get wet. Clean all parts
with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
~The electro suction hose and the electro telescopic wand contain
electrical wires. The plug connectors must not come in contact with
water. Danger of electric shock! They should only be cleaned with a
dry cloth.
Warning and Safety instructions
8
~Repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician
authorised by Miele. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for unauthorised
work.
~Caution: The vacuum cleaner handle, hose and ElectroBrush
contain electrical connections. The handle, hose and ElectroBrush
are not parts which can be serviced by the user.
~The hose should be checked regularly for signs of damage. Do
not use the hose if it is damaged.
Correct use
~To avoid the risk of injury when vacuuming with a Miele
ElectroBrush or TurboBrush, do not touch the rotating roller brush.
~Floor attachments, accessories and tubes must not be used at
head level to avoid the risk of injury, e.g. to eyes and ears.
~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 cannot
be closed. Do not force it.
~Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning e.g.
cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether still glowing or if apparently
extinguished.
~Do not vacuum up any liquids or damp dirt. 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.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
~Do not vacuum up any inflammable or combustible liquids or
gases and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are
stored.
Accessories
~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 Miele approved dustbags, filters and
accessories. This will ensure optimum performance of the appliance
throughout its life and will guarantee the safety of the vacuum
cleaner.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect use
or operation or by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety
instructions.
