Miele HS19 Operating Instructions Manual page 13

Do not allow the AP01 / AP02 / AP03 battery to come

into contact with liquids.
Disposing of the AP01 / AP02 / AP03 battery: remove

the AP01 / AP02 / AP03 battery from the vacuum cleaner.
Insulate the metal contacts with adhesive tape to prevent
short circuits. Dispose of the AP01 / AP02 / AP03 battery
in a municipal recycling facility. Do not dispose of the
AP01 / AP02 / AP02 battery with your household waste.
Cleaning
Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner or any accessories

supplied with it in water.
The Multi Floor XXL Electrobrush (included as standard),

the Electro Compact handheld brush (optional accessory),
the PowerUnit, the suction tube, and the Comfort handle
all contain electrical wires. The plug connectors must not
come into contact with water – damp cleaning of these
items is therefore not permitted.
Clean the vacuum cleaner and accessories only with a

dry or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the
power supply.
Exception:
Dust container: empty the dust container and remove the
pre-filter. Clean the dust container using a mild solution of
water and liquid dish soap only. Then dry the dust container
carefully. Replace the pre-filter in the dust container.
