Using the standard floorhead
Important: please observe the
flooring manufacturer's cleaning and
care instructions.
The floorhead can be used for all
normal cleaning of carpets and rugs. It
can also be used with the brush
protruding to vacuum hard flooring. For
hard flooring, such as stone and
parquet, we recommend using one of
the special Miele floor brushes (see
"Optional accessories").
Connecting the
electro-telescopic suction tube
and the standard floorhead
^ Fit the electro-telescopic suction tube
into the standard floorhead, and turn
clockwise or anti-clockwise until they
lock together with a click.
^ To release the floorhead from the
suction tube, press the locking button
(see arrow) and pull the suction tube
away from the suction tube.
Adjusting the standard
floorhead

brush retracted:
^ Press the foot control until the

susceptible to scratching with the brush
