The Miele filter system consists of the following three components.
–Dustbag
–Exhaust filter
–Dust compartment filter
Each of these components must be changed periodically to maintain the vacuum cleaner’s efficiency.
Only use Miele dustbags, filters and accessories with the "Original Miele" logo. Only then can the suction power of the vacuum cleaner reach its optimum potential creating the best possible cleaning results.
13
Miele Manuals free download from ManualBirds
en
The use of dustbags made of paper or a similar material, or dustbags with a cardboard retaining plate can lead to serious damage to the vacuum cleaner and possibly voiding the warranty, just as with the use of dustbags without the "Original Miele" logo.
Purchasing new dustbags and filters
Original Miele dustbags and filters can be purchased from an authorized Miele vacuum dealer or by visiting the Miele store at www.mieleusa.com.
Which dustbags and filters are the right ones?
This vacuum cleaner uses Original Miele dustbags Type F/J/M and an Original Miele filters, the "Original Miele" Logo will appear on the packaging or directly on the dustbag.
An "Air clean" exhaust filter and a dust compartment filter are supplied with every box of Miele dustbags.
If you would like to purchase additional Miele filters separately, contact your vacuum dealer or Miele, please quote the model number of your Miele vacuum cleaner to ensure correct parts are ordered. These parts are also available to order from the online Miele store.
14
The exhaust filter supplied with the vacuum cleaner can be exchanged with another type of Original Miele filter (see "Exchanging exhaust filters").
When to change the dustbag (see fig. 27)
Change the dustbag when the colored marker in the airflow indicator fills the display.
Miele dustbags are disposable and made to be used only once. Do not attempt to reuse.
Checking the airflow indicator
Attach the standard floor brush (depending on model) to the vacuum cleaner. Perform this test with the standard floor brush only, since other attachments can affect the function of the airflow indicator.
Turn the vacuum cleaner on and select the highest power setting.
Lift the floor brush slightly off the floor. If the marker completely fills the indicator window, the dustbag needs to be changed.
How the airflow indicator works
The airflow indicator is designed to show when the bag is full of common household dust and measures the amount of air flow through the dustbag. Normal household dust is a mixture of dust, hair, carpet fluff, threads, sand, etc.
Miele Manuals free download from ManualBirds
en
However, if fine dust, such as drill dust, sand, plaster or flour is vacuumed, the pores of the dustbag may become blocked. The marker will indicate that the bag is "full" even when it is not. The dustbag should be changed as the suction power is greatly reduced.
If the bag is bulging with pet fur, hair, carpet fluff, etc. the indicator may not register "full". This is because the air flow of the dustbag may still be high enough not to activate the marker to show maximum. The dustbag should still be changed.
Replacing the dustbag (see fig. 28 + 29)
Open the dust compartment lid and raise until it clicks into place
(see fig. 11).
The dustbag has a closing flap which closes automatically when the dust compartment lid is raised to prevent any dust from escaping.
Grasp the finger grip and pull the dustbag out of the holder.
Insert the new dust bag as far as it will go into the dustbag holder. Do not unfold the dustbag when taking it out of the box.
Unfold the dustbag in the dust compartment.
Close the dust compartment lid until it clicks into place. Take care not to catch the dust bag in the lid.
A empty-operation-barrier will block the dust compartment lid from closing if no dustbag is inserted. Do Not Use Force!
When to change the dust compartment filter (motor protection)
Replace the dust compartment filter every time you start a new box of dustbags. A dust compartment filter is supplied with each box of Miele dustbags.

Seuls des sacs à poussière, des filtres et des accessoires portant le logo "Original Miele" doivent être utilisés avec cet aspirateur.
Ceux-ci permettent de maximiser la puissance d'aspiration de l'aspirateur et de produire des résultats de nettoyage optimaux.
L'UTILISATION DE COMPOSANTES D'UNE AUTRE MARQUE POURRAIT INVALIDER LA GARANTIE.
Tout comme l'utilisation de sacs à poussière n'arborant pas le logo "Original Miele", l'utilisation de sacs à poussière faits de papier ou de matériau similaire, ou de sacs à poussière munis d'une plaque de retenue en carton, peut endommager gravement l'aspirateur et risquer d'en annuler la garantie.
Le logo "Original Miele" se trouve sur l'emballage ou directement sur le sac à poussière.
Vous pouvez vous procurer des sacs à poussière et des filtres
Miele d'origine auprès d'un détaillant autorisé d'aspirateurs Miele ou à notre magasin Miele en ligne, à www.miele.ca.

fr - INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANTES SUR LA SÉCURITÉ
Lorsque vous utilisez un appareil électrique, respectez toujours les consignes de sécurité élémentaires :
LISEZ ATTENTIVEMENT TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D'UTILISER L'APPAREIL
AVERTISSEMENT -
Pour diminuer le risque d'incendie, de choc électrique ou de blessure, respectez les instructions suivantes :
Avant la première utilisation :
Vérifiez la capacité en voltage de l'aspirateur avant de brancher le cordon d'alimentation dans une prise électrique. La tension de votre source d'alimentation doit correspondre à la capacité en voltage indiquée sur la plaque signalétique située sous l'aspirateur. Utilisez uniquement des prises de courant alternatif. N'utilisez jamais des prises de courant continu. Consultez un électricien qualifié si vous n'êtes pas sûr de connaître la capacité en voltage de votre système électrique. Si vous branchez votre aspirateur à une source d'alimentation de tension supérieure à celle indiquée dans les présentes instructions, vous pourriez endommager l'appareil ou vous blesser.
Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique, l’aspirateur est muni d’une fiche polarisée (l’une des broches est plus large que l’autre). Cette fiche peut être insérée dans une prise polarisée d’une seule manière. Si la fiche ne peut être entièrement insérée dans la prise, re- tournez-la. S’il est encore impossible de l’insérer, faites appel à un électricien qualifié qui peut installer une prise appropriée. Ne modifiez aucunement la fiche.
Un appareil endommagé présente des risques. Vérifiez l'emballage, l'appareil et ses accessoires afin de détecter tout signe de dommages. N'utilisez pas un appareil endommagé.
N'utilisez pas l'appareil avec un cordon ou une prise endommagé. Si l'appareil ne fonctionne pas correctement, s'il est tombé, endommagé, a été laissé à l'extérieur ou immergé dans l'eau, ap- portez-le à un centre de services.
La prise électrique doit être équipée d'un fusible de 15 ampères.
