When to change the exhaust
filter
Depending on model, your vacuum
cleaner will be fitted as standard with
one of the following exhaust filters:
a Air Clean
Replace this filter every time you start a
new packet of Miele dustbags. An Air
Clean exhaust filter and a dust
compartment filter are supplied with
every packet of Miele dustbags.
b Active Air Clean SF-AAC 50 (black)
A special active charcoal filter, which
removes odours coming from the dirt in
the dustbag, keeping unpleasant smells
to a minimum. There is no difference in
the fine dust filtration levels between the
Active Air Clean filter and the Super Air
Clean filter.
c Active HEPA SF-AH 50 (blue)
A combination filter which complies
with the requirements of EN 1822 HEPA
classification 12. It is able to filter out
very fine particles and
micro-organisms. The active charcoal
layer absorbs odours from the dust
collected in the dustbag. Vacuum
cleaners equipped with this exhaust
filter are particularly suitable for allergy
sufferers and those concerned with a
high level of hygiene.
Change filter types b and c
approx. once a year.
Make a note of the date on the filter.
