IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed,  
including the following:  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE  
USING THIS APPLIANCE  
WARNING-  
A damaged vacuum cleaner can  
be dangerous. Check the  
packaging, the vacuum cleaner and  
accessories for any signs of damage.  
Do not use a damaged appliance.  
To reduce the risk of fire, electric  
shock or injury:  
Check the voltage rating of the  
vacuum cleaner before connecting  
the power cord to an electrical outlet.  
Your power source should correspond  
with the voltage rating plate located on  
the underside of the vacuum. Use only  
household AC outlets. Never use DC  
power sources. If you are not sure of  
your home’s voltage supply, consult a  
qualified electrician. Connecting the  
vacuum cleaner to a higher voltage  
than indicated in these instructions may  
result in damage to the vacuum cleaner  
or injury.  
Do not use with a damaged cord or  
plug. If the appliance is not  
working as it should, has been  
dropped, damaged, left outdoors or  
immersed in water, bring it to a service  
center.  
Do not use on people or on  
animals.  
Do not use outdoors or on wet  
surfaces. Only dry surfaces should  
be vacuumed.  
Only use the vacuum as described  
in this manual. Use only Miele  
recommended accessories.  
To reduce the the risk of electric  
shock, this appliance has a  
polarized plug (one blade is wider than  
the other.) This plug will fit in a  
polarized outlet only one way. If the  
plug does not fit fully in the outlet,  
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,  
contact a qualified electrician to install  
the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug  
in any way.

a Dustbag  
b Dust compartment filter (motor  
protection)  
c Exhaust filter *  
* Depending on the vacuum cleaner  
model, one of the following exhaust  
filters is included:  
a SUPER air clean filter: An  
electrostatically charged, multi-ply filter.  
The filter can be used as long as 5  
dustbags and is supplied with every  
box of Miele dustbags.  
b ACTIVE air clean filter: An active  
charcoal filter that absorbs odors in the  
dustbag. The filter can be used up to  
one year with normal use.  
c HEPA filter: An odor absorbing filter  
that traps respirable particles and  
allergens. Vacuum cleaners equipped  
with this exhaust filter are particularly  
suitable for allergy sufferers and those  
concerned with a high level of hygiene.  
The filter can be used up to one year  
with normal use.

be purchased from your local Miele  
Dealer.  
Which dustbags and filters are  
the right ones?

dust compartment filters, please quote  
the model number of your vacuum to  
your dealer when ordering.

Maintenance  
How the dustbag change indicator  
works  
The indicator is designed to show when  
the bag is full of dust by measuring the  
air permeability of the dustbag. Normal  
household dust is a mixture of dust,  
hair, carpet fluff, threads, grit, etc.  
However, if an amount of fine dust,  
such as plaster, brick dust, cement or  
flour is vacuumed, the pores of the  
dustbag become blocked very quickly.  
The marker will indicate that the bag is  
"full", even when it is not. In this  
instance, the dustbag must be  
changed as suction power is reduced.  
If, on the other hand, a large quantity of  
hair, wool or carpet fluff is vacuumed,  
the dustbag indicator may not register  
"full" until the bag is absolutely bulging.  
This is because the air permeability of  
the dustbag may still be high enough  
not to activate the marker to show the  
bag is full. The dustbag should still be  
changed. Check the dustbag change  
indicator regularly.  
Checking the dustbag change  
indicator  
^ Turn the vacuum cleaner on.  
^ Tilt the floor tool from the floor while  
the body wand is locked. If the red  
marker fills the indicator window,  
change the dustbag, even if it is not  
completely filled.

Maintenance  
Replacing the dustbag  
^ Open the dust compartment lid by  
pressing the release.  
^ Grasp the card collar tabs and pull  
the dustbag out from the dustbag  
holder. The dustbag has a flap which  
closes automatically to prevent dust  
from escaping when the dustbag is  
removed.  
^ Dispose of the dustbag with normal  
household waste, provided it  
contains only normal household dust.  
^ Insert the new dustbag into the  
dustbag holder. Close the dust  
compartment lid firmly until it clicks  
into place. Do not jam the dustbag in  
the lid. The dustbag will automatically  
set into the intake socket.  
An empty-operation-barrier blocks  
the dust compartment lid from  
closing if no dustbag is inserted or if  
it is not inserted all the way.  
Do Not Use Force!
