Only Miele FilterBags, filters and accessories with
the "Original Miele" logo can be used with this
vacuum. Only then can the suction power of the
vacuum cleaner reach its optimum potential creating
the best possible cleaning results.
USE OF NON-MIELE COMPONENTS MAY VOID
THE WARRANTY.
The use of FilterBags made of paper or a similar
,
material, or FilterBags with a cardboard retaining
plate can lead to serious damage to the vacuum
cleaner and may void the warranty, just as with the
use of FilterBags without the "Original Miele" logo.
The "Original Miele" Logo will appear on the
packaging or directly on the FilterBag.
Purchasing new FilterBags and filters
Original Miele FilterBags and filters can be purchased
from an authorized Miele vacuum dealer or by visiting the
Miele store at www.mieleusa.com.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USING THIS APPLIANCE
WARNING-
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or injury:
Before using
Check the voltage rating of the
~
vacuum cleaner before connecting the
power cord to an electrical outlet. The
power source should correspond with
the voltage rating plate of the vacuum
cleaner. 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 voltage may result in damage 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 polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse 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.
The electrical outlet must be fitted
~
with a 15 A fuse.
A damaged vacuum cleaner can be
~
dangerous. Check the packaging,
vacuum cleaner and accessories for
any signs of damage. Do not use a
damaged appliance.
Do not use with a damaged cord or
~
plug. If the appliance is not working as
it should, has been dropped, damaged,
left outdoors or submerged in water,
bring it to a service center.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use
Do not use on people or animals.
~
Do not use outdoors or on wet
~
surfaces. Only dry surfaces should be
vacuumed.
Use only as described in this
~
manual with Miele recommended
accessories.
This appliance is intended for
~
household use only.
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
~
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used near children.
Be aware, the cord clip can become
~
loose over time. Do not allow children to
come in contact with this small part.
Choking hazard.
Never use the vacuum cleaner
~
without the dustbag or filters in place. It
may cause damage.
If a dustbag is not inserted, the dust
~
compartment lid will not close. Do not
force it shut.
Do not leave the vacuum cleaner
~
plugged in. Unplug it from the outlet
when not in use and before servicing.
This vacuum cleaner should not be
~
used to entrap or retain any hazardous
materials.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to
~
pick up liquids or damp dirt. This could
impair the electrical safety of the
vacuum cleaner. Wait for freshly
shampooed carpets to dry.
Do not vacuum anything that is
~
burning or smoking such as cigarettes,
matches or hot ashes. The vacuum
cleaner could catch fire.
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
~
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
Do not vacuum flammable or
~
combustible liquids, such as gasoline,
or use in areas where they may be
present.
Do not vacuum items which are
~
heavy, hard or have sharp edges. They
could cause a blockage and damage
the appliance.
Do not pull or carry by the cord, use
~
the cord as a handle, close a door on
the cord, or pull the cord around sharp
edges or corners. Do not run the
appliance over the cord. Keep the cord
away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug the vacuum cleaner
~
by pulling on the cord. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle the plug or vacuum
~
cleaner with wet hands.
Keep the power cord, hair, loose
~
clothing, fingers and other parts of the
body away from openings and moving
parts.
Do not place anything into the
~
openings of the vacuum cleaner. Do
not use if any openings are blocked;
keep them free of dust, lint, hair, or
anything that may reduce air flow.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Turn off all controls before
~
unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on
~
stairs.
The hose, wand and accessories
~
must not be used at head level to avoid
injury to eyes and ears.
Monitor the airflow indicator and
~
inspect all filters regularly. For best
performance, the FilterBags and filters
should be replaced when necessary. A
full bag or blocked filter will reduce the
vacuum cleaner’s suction power. A
temperature limiter automatically
switches the vacuum cleaner off if it
gets too hot, see "Frequently asked
questions".
Using accessories
Unplug the vacuum cleaner when
~
changing accessories.
To avoid the risk of injury when
~
vacuuming do not touch the beater bar.
Danger of injury.
Do not use the vacuum hose or
~
telescopic wand without an accessory
attached. The rim could be damaged
and injuries could result from sharp
edges.
Miele FilterBags are disposable and
~
intended to be used only once. Do not
attempt to reuse them. An over stuffed
FilterBag will reduce the efficiency of
the vacuum cleaner.
Cleaning, maintenance and
repairs
Turn the vacuum cleaner off after
~
each use and before every cleaning/
maintenance. Pull the plug from the
outlet.
Never submerge the vacuum
~
cleaner in water. Clean only with a dry
or slightly damp cloth when
disconnected from the mains supply. If
moisture gets into the appliance there
is a risk of electric shock.
Repairs must only be performed by
~
an authorized service agent in
accordance with national and local
safety regulations. Repairs by
unqualified persons could be
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for unauthorized
work.
If the power cord is damaged it
~
should be replaced with a genuine
Miele cord by Technical Service.
Disposing of an old appliance
Before discarding an old vacuum
~
cleaner, please cut off the power cord
and render the plug useless. Ensure
the appliance presents no danger to
children while being stored for
disposal.
SAVE THESE
Only use genuine Miele FilterBags
~
with the Miele quality signet and
original Miele filter and accessories.
Only then can the manufacturer
guarantee its safety.
