IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, always observe basic safety precautions, including the following:
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE USING THESE ACCESSORIES FOR THE FIRST TIME.
KEEP THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
These accessories are intended for household use with a Miele vacuum cleaner only. Do not use them on people or animals.
The manufacturer cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by improper use of these accessories, or if the accessories are used for purposes other than those for which they were designed. This includes connecting them to a non-Miele vacuum cleaner. Use the accessories only as described in this manual.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:
Do not use the vacuum outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Check the voltage rating of the powerbrush before connecting it to
the vacuum cleaner. Your power supply should correspond to the voltage rating listed on the data plate of both the powerbrush and the vacuum cleaner. Use only AC outlets. Connecting the vacuum or powerbrush to a higher voltage than indicated on the data plate will damage the powerbrush and may result in personal injury.
Do not leave the appliance unattended when plugged in. Unplug it
from the outlet when not in use and before servicing.
The accessories are designed for direct connection to Miele vacuum
cleaners ONLY. Do not use extension cords, modify the plugs, or attempt to connect any of the accessories to a non-Miele vacuum cleaner. Doing so could damage the powerbrush or other accessories and cause personal injury.
Only dry surfaces should be vacuumed with these accessories.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The powerbrush, electric wands and electric hoses are not toys. Do
not allow children to play with them, and pay close attention if they are used near children.
If the appliances are not working correctly, have been dropped,
damaged, left outdoors, or immersed in water, do not use them. Bring them to your Miele dealer for servicing.
Do not run the powerbrush over the vacuum cleaner cord or extension
cords, and keep it away from heated surfaces.
Do not handle the appliance with wet hands.
Turn off all controls before un-plug- ging the vacuum or powerbrush.
Do not use the powerbrush to vacuum anything that may damage the
rollers. Nails, safety pins, buttons, etc. should not be vacuumed.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of the body away from
any openings or moving parts, and never touch a rotating roller brush.
Use extra care when vacuuming while on stairs.
Do not use the vacuum to pick up flammable or combustible liquids,
such as gasoline, or use it in areas where fumes may be present.
Do not use the vacuum or power-brush to pick up liquids.
This also applies to freshly shampooed carpets or rugs. Wait until they are dry before vacuuming.
Do not pick up items that are burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
The vacuum and accessories should only be cleaned when dis-
connected from the power supply. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth ONLY. Never submerge the vacuum or accessories in water or use a dripping wet rag.
The powerbrush will shut off automatically if the rollers are pre-
vented from turning; for example if a large object has been vacuumed. Should this occur, unplug the vacuum cleaner before correcting the problem. Allow 2 - 3 minutes for this safety feature to reset itself before restarting the vacuum.
Use only Miele attachments and accessories. Use of non-Miele de-
signed items will decrease the efficiency of your machine and may be dangerous.
Do not attempt any repairs other than those listed in the “Maintenance and care section. Any other re-
quired service should be performed by an Authorized Miele Service Agent.
Always unplug the machine before connecting or disconnecting any
accessories from the vacuum cleaner.
