Cleaning The Filter Frame; Cleaning The Fine Dust Filter; Starting The Comfortclean Self-Cleaning Function Manually - Miele HS16 Operating Instructions Manual

 Dry the dust container thoroughly.

Cleaning the filter frame

A removable filter frame is located in the
dust container. This should be cleaned
if it is obviously dirty.
 Place the emptied and open dust
container on its front.
 Release the filter frame and remove it.
 Empty the filter frame and rinse it un-
der cold running water.

Risk of damage caused by incor-
rect cleaning.
The filter frame can become dam-
aged and be less effective as a res-
ult.
Do not use washing-up liquid or any
pointed or sharp-edged objects to
clean the filter. Dry the filter frame
carefully after cleaning.
 Replace the dry filter frame in the
dust container so that it audibly clicks
into place.

Cleaning the fine dust filter

The fine dust filter is equipped with a
self-cleaning function. When a specified
degree of soiling is reached, the va-
cuum cleaner switches off automatically
for approx. 20 seconds and carries out
a cleaning process. You will hear this
process running.
The ComfortClean button on the va-
cuum cleaner lights up yellow.
Starting the ComfortClean self-clean-
ing function manually
If you vacuum a large amount of dust in
one go, you should start the Comfort-
Clean self-cleaning function manually
either during a vacuuming pause or im-
mediately afterwards. This enables the
vacuum cleaner to achieve the very
best cleaning performance again
straight away.
