When using an electrical appliance, always observe basic safety precautions,
including the following:
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE USING THIS
ACCESSORY FOR THE FIRST TIME.
KEEP THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Intended Use
The powerbrush is a motorized
accessory, only for use with a Miele
vacuum cleaner. Do not connect the
powerbrush to a non-Miele vacuum.
The powerbrush must only be used
for household purposes to vacuum
and brush dry floor surfaces. Do not
use on people or animals. The
manufacturer cannot accept
responsibility for damage caused when
the appliance is not used according to
the instructions, or for uses other than
those for which it was intended.
Technical safety
Ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage and
frequency) match your power supply.
This data must correspond to prevent
injury and machine damage.
Do not use the powerbrush, the
electro-suction hose or the
telescopic wand if damaged. Damaged
parts are a safety risk.
Turn the vacuum off after each use
and before every cleaning /
maintenance. Unplug the vacuum from
the outlet.
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get
wet. Clean only with a dry or
slightly damp cloth when disconnected
from the power supply. If moisture gets
into the appliance, there is the risk of an
electric shock.
The electro-suction hose and the
telescopic wand contain electrical
wires. The plug connectors must not
come in contact with water. These items
may only be cleaned with a dry cloth,
no moisture must touch them. Danger
of electric shock.
Do not open the powerbrush.
Electrical parts inside could cause
an electric shock.
Repairs may only be carried out by
a suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with national and
local safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for
unauthorized work.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Child safety
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near
children.
Use
Never touch the roller brush while it
is rotating. Injuries could result.
The powerbrush should not be
used at head level. Long hair, ties,
scarves, etc. could be sucked in and
become entangled in the roller brush.
Do not vacuum up items which are
heavy, hard or have sharp edges.
They could cause a blockage and
damage the appliance.
Do not vacuum up ashes or coal,
whether glowing or apparently
extinguished. The powerbrush and the
vacuum could catch fire.

surfaces.
Always turn off this appliance
before connecting or
disconnecting either the hose or the
motorized nozzle.
For household use only.
Do not vacuum up liquids or damp
dirt. This will cause damage and
seriously impair the functioning and
electrical safety of the vacuum cleaner.
The electric shock protection can be
damaged. Wait until freshly cleaned or
shampooed carpets or floor coverings
are completely dry before attempting to
vacuum.
Disposal of a powerbrush
An old powerbrush should be
made unusable.
When disposing of an old
powerbrush, unplug and cut the
cable off the appliance as close as
possible. The plug cut from the cord
should be rendered useless and then

Using the powerbrush
^
To achieve the best results, slowly
pass the powerbrush back and forth
over the carpet.
When vacuuming rug fringes, place the
powerbrush on the rug and pull it over
the fringe onto the floor. Never push the
powerbrush over fringes, as they may
become entangled in the roller brush.
On/Off switch at the handle
(depending on model)
The electrical hoses (SES) have a
switch at the handle to turn the
powerbrush separately on and off.
This gives the option of using the
"vacuum only" instead of brushing the
carpet. This function is useful when
moving from hard floors to Berber or
other delicate carpeting.
