Exhaust Filter Change Indicator - Miele S 500 Operating Instructions Manual

Maintenance and care

Exhaust filter change indicator

Some models are equipped with an ex-
haust filter change indicator (Re-set
button 7) which is designed for the
change cycle of an ACTIVE air clean or
an ACTIVE HEPA filter. The indicator
lights up after approx. 50 hours of oper-
ation which is equivalent to about a
year of average use.
The vacuum cleaner can still be used
with the exhaust filter indicator lit up.
However, the suction power will be re-
duced as will the effectiveness of the fil-
ter if it is not replaced in good time.
The filter change indicator light will
have no significance if a SUPER air
clean filter (a) has been fitted, but
should still be re-set.
Re-setting the filter change indicator
The filter change indicator (Re-set but-
ton 7), needs to be re-set each time
the filter is replaced. To do this the vac-
uum cleaner must be connected to the
electricity supply.
^ Press on the filter change indicator
light until it goes out. The display is
now back in the starting position
again.
