Features of the Electrobrush

The roller brush in the Electrobrush is motor-driven.

The Electrobrush removes deep-seated dirt and prevents areas of frequent use from becoming a path.

Two of the four rollers are height-ad- justable, allowing you to adjust the gap between the Electrobrush and the floor.

Recommended use

Please note that the Electrobrush should not be used to vacuum deeppile rugs and carpets or valuable hand-knotted rugs and carpets, e.g., Persian and oriental rugs, etc. or long piled rugs and carpets. There is a risk of the threads being pulled out.

The SEB 228 Electro Plus is particularly suitable for intensive vacuuming of carpets which are subject to hard wear.

The SEB 228 Electro SC Soft Carpet is especially designed for cleaning particularly soft carpeting.

The standard floorhead or one of the Miele floorbrushes should be used for cleaning hard floors.

It is also important to observe the flooring manufacturer's cleaning and care instructions.

Special features of Electrobrush SEB 228 SC Soft Carpet

Select the middle distance setting “SC” for cleaning particularly soft carpeting.

Select the vacuum power setting “SC Soft Carpet” on your vacuum cleaner when cleaning particularly soft carpeting.

If your vacuum cleaner does not have the vacuum power setting “SC Soft Carpet,” select a middle vacuum power setting to clean particularly soft carpeting.

For carpets with a face weight of around 70 oz, which is the most common face weight of soft carpeting, we recommend the Soft Carpet setting. The setting on the Electro Brush SEB 228 should be set at SC.

If you feel the vacuum is still difficult to push please adjust the setting on the Electro Brush SEB 228 to setting 4 or SC+.

For carpets with a face weight of around or higher than 100 oz, which is the heaviest face weight of soft carpeting, we recommend the Soft Carpet setting. The setting on the Electro Brush SEB 228 should be set at SC+.

Please note that the higher the setting on the Electro Brush or the lower setting of the suction power of the motor, this could affect the cleaning performance of the vacuum on your carpeting.
