G Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
This Electrobrush conforms to current safety requirements. Incorrect use can, however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage. To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the vacuum cleaner and to the brush please read these operating instructions, as well as the instructions supplied with the vacuum cleaner, before using this appliance for the first time. Keep these instructions in a safe place, and make them available to future users.
Correct use
The Miele Electrobrush is a motor
driven accessory appliance for use only with Miele vacuum cleaners. It must not be used with vacuum cleaners produced by other manufacturers.
The Electrobrush must only be
used for household purposes to vacuum and brush dry floor surfaces. Do not use on people or animals. Any other use, modification or alteration to the brush is at the owner’s risk and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from improper or incorrect use of the appliance.
Before using the Electrobrush
for the first time, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. It is essential that they match to avoid damage to the appliance.
Do not use the Electrobrush if it
shows any sign of damage. A damaged appliance could be dangerous.
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the mains supply when you have finished using it as well as for maintenance work and cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug.
Do not let the appliance get wet.
Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the mains supply. If moisture gets into the appliance there is the risk of an electric shock.
Safety with children
Do not let children play with the
appliance or its controls. Supervise its use by older children and the elderly or infirm.

G Warning and Safety instructions
Use
Never touch the roller brush while it is rotating. Danger of injury.
Do not use the Turbobrush at head
level. Long hair, ties, scarves etc. could be vacuumed in and become entangled in the roller brush.
Keep the Electrobrush away from
curtains, clothing etc, as these could be vacuumed in and become entangled in the roller and possibly get damaged.
Do not vacuum up items which are
heavy, hard or have sharp edges. They could block the Electrobrush and the vacuum cleaner and cause damage.
Do not vacuum up ashes or coal,
whether glowing or apparently extinguished. The Electrobrush and the vacuum cleaner might catch fire.
Do not vacuum up any inflammable
or combustible liquids or gases and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are stored. Danger of explosion.
Do not vacuum up any water, liquid
or damp dirt. This will cause major faults and could seriously impair the functioning and electrical safety of the vacuum cleaner and the Electrobrush. Danger of electric shock! Wait until any freshly cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor coverings are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.
Blocked roller warning light
The indicator light on the Electrobrush has two functions.
The light is
green when the Electrobrush is
switched on. red, if the roller brush is blocked
(blocked roller warning light), for example, when a large object has been vacuumed up.
Disconnect the vacuum cleaner from
^
the electricity supply immediately the red light comes on. Switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug.
^ Remove the cause of the obstruction,
see "Cleaning and care".
Then wait for about two minutes, before switching the cleaner back on again. This allows the blocked roller warning indicator to re-set itself.
Disposing of an old appliance
When disposing of an old Electrobrush first make it unusable.
Make appropriate arrangements for its safe disposal.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Operating instructions
These operating instructions are for Electrobrush models:
1. SEB 217 for hand-held vacuum
cleaners and
2. SEB 215 / SEB 216 for cylinder
vacuum cleaners.
The illustrations referred to in the text are shown at the end of the operating instructions.
Using the Electrobrush
The following should not be vacuumed using the Electrobrush:
Floor surfaces with a variable or
uneven profile. The brush might come into contact with the floor and cause damage.
Carpets such as saxony with very
long-pile, berber and sheepskin rugs, and valuable hand-knotted carpets, e.g. Persian and similar. There is a danger of the threads being pulled out. If in doubt, contact the carpet manufacturer/retailer.
The Electrobrush is particularly suitable for intensive vacuuming of carpets which are subject to hard wear. It is very effective at removing deep seated dirt and preventing areas of frequent use being trodden into a path.
A separate motor drives the Electrobrush roller brush and four rollers maintain the brush 1.5 mm away from the floor. The normal floorhead or one of the Miele floorbrushes should be used for cleaning hard floors, such as tiled or parquet floors.
It is also important to observe the flooring manufacturer’s cleaning and care instructions.
Using the Electrobrush
^ To achieve the best effect, pass the
Electrobrush slowly backwards and forwards over the carpet or floor covering. For carpets with fringes, always draw the Electrobrush from the carpet across the fringe towards the rest of the floor.

Connecting the Electrobrush to the vacuum cleaner
Connect the Electrobrush to the vacuum cleaner as shown in the illustrations at the end of the operating instructions.
Hand-held vacuum cleaner - see illustration a
Cylinder vacuum cleaner - see illustration b This illustration shows connection to an S 300 / S 400 series vacuum cleaner as an example.
The position of the socket for connec­ting the Electrobrush will depend on the vacuum cleaner model.
For S 500 / S 600 / S 700 / S 800 and S 5000 vacuum cleaners the
protective cap must be removed from the socket: see illustration c and d.
Cable
When the Electrobrush is connected to a cylinder vacuum cleaner, the cable must be secured to the telescopic tube and to the suction hose. Nine clips are supplied for this:
two for securing the cable to the
telescopic tube (already in position) seven for running the cable along the
suction hose (these can be adjusted)
Fit the clips to the suction hose
^
leaving approximately the same distance between each clip.
Switching on and off
The Electrobrush is operated in conjunction with the vacuum cleaner.
Some models, however, are fitted with a switch which allows the Electrobrush to be switched on and off separately.
For SEB 216-3 (see illustration d)
This Electrobrush is easily removed enabling one of the other accessories to be used.
^
Press the release button and pull the suction tube with plug connector out of the Electrobrush.
The cable will remain on the suction tube.
Warning light
The warning light on the Electrobrush is green when the Electrobrush is switched on.
If the warning light on the Electrobrush is red, there is a blockage in the roller, see "Warning and Safety instructions, Blocked roller warning light".

G Cleaning and care
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for maintenance work and cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug.
Removing threads and hairs (illustrations e, f and g)
Cut any threads or hairs that have
^
become entangled on the roller brush with a pair of scissors. Then run the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up the bits.
For more obstinate tangles or blockages inside the Electrobrush, the cover can be opened.
^ Loosen the two locking screws on the
underside of the brush with a small coin, and take off the roller cover.
Put the roller cover back on and
^
close it, (see illustration i). Tighten the locking screws. If the
^
bristles are totally worn out, a replacement roller brush can be purchased through your Miele Dealer or the Spare Parts Dept.
Replacing the drive belt (illustrations j and k)
The housing must be opened to fit a new drive belt.
Remove roller cover a (as already
^
described) and lift roller brush b off its supports.
^ Unscrew fixing screws c from the
brush base section d, and separate the base section from top section e.
^ Fit a new drive belt.
The roller brush can now be taken out of its supports and cleaned. The compartment interior can also be cleaned.
When re-fitting the roller brush please note the following (see illustration h)
There are notches on the supports. With a new roller brush: Fit the supports so that the single points towards the roller cover, (see left hand illustration). The bristles protrude approx. 2 mm. This is important for the brushing effect. When the bristles are slightly worn out:
^
Fit the supports so that two point towards the roller cover, (see right hand illustration).
