IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLI-

ANCE

This vacuum cleaner complies with all current local and national

safety requirements. Improper use can lead to personal injury and

damage to property.

Please read the operating instructions before using the vacuum

cleaner for the first time. They contain important information on the

safety, use, and maintenance of the vacuum cleaner. This prevents

both personal injury and damage to the appliance.

Miele expressly and strongly advises that you read and follow the

instructions in the “Connection” chapter as well as the IMPOR-

TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non-

compliance with these instructions.

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, cleaning, and troubleshooting.

Remove the plug from the electrical socket.

Correct use

 This vacuum cleaner is intended for cleaning flooring in domestic

households and similar residential environments. This vacuum

cleaner is not suitable for use on construction sites.

 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

13000ft (4000m) above sea level.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

faces. Do not vacuum people or animals. Any other types of use,

modifications, or alterations are not permitted.

 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.

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.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:

 Check the voltage rating of the vacuum cleaner before connecting

the power cord to an electrical outlet. Your power source should cor-

respond with the voltage rating plate located on the underside of the

vacuum. Use only household AC outlets. Never use DC power

sources. If you are not sure of your home’s voltage supply, consult a

qualified electrician. Connecting the vacuum cleaner to a higher volt-

age than indicated in these instructions may result in damage to the

vacuum cleaner or injury.

 To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized

plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polar-

ized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, re-

verse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to

install the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.

Technical safety

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

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Compare the connection data on the data plate of the vacuum

cleaner (voltage and frequency) with that of the electricity supply.

This data must match exactly. Without modifications, the vacuum

cleaner is suited for 50Hz or 60Hz.

 The electrical outlet must be rated at 15Amps.

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

assured if it has been connected to the electricity supply.

 Repairs should only be performed by an authorized service agent

in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Unautho-

rized repairs could cause injury or machine damage. Otherwise the

warranty may 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 Service

or a Miele authorized service technician.

 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.

 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when gen-

uine Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components should

only be replaced with genuine Miele parts.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

 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 FilterBags, filters, and accessories bearing the “ORIGI-

NAL Miele” logo on the packaging. The manufacturer cannot other-

wise guarantee the safety of the product.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Caring for the environment

Disposing of sales packaging

The packaging material protects the

vacuum cleaner from transport damage.

The packaging materials used are se-

lected from materials which are environ-

mentally friendly for disposal and can

therefore be recycled.

Recycling the packaging material re-

duces the use of raw materials in the

manufacturing process and also re-

duces the amount of waste in landfill

sites. Make sure the packaging is dis-

posed of in the proper manner for your

area.

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.
