Preparing for use

Using the standard floorhead

(standard or optional accessory de-

pending on model)

The floorhead can be used for all nor-

mal cleaning of carpets and rugs. It can

also be used with the brush protruding

to vacuum hard flooring which is not

susceptible to scratching. For hard

flooring, such as stone and floors which

are susceptible to scratching, e.g. par-

quet, we recommend using one of the

special Miele floor brushes (see "Ac-

cessories available as optional extras").

It is also important to observe the

flooring manufacturer's cleaning and

care instructions.

Fitting the standard floorhead

^ Push the suction tube into the

floorhead and turn it clockwise or

anti-

clockwise until it clicks into position.

^ To release the floorhead from the suc-

tion tube press the locking button

(see arrow) and pull the suction tube

away from the floorhead.

To carry the vacuum cleaner by the

handle and for storage purposes fit

adapter a to the standard floorhead,

turbobrush or floorbrush and then fit the

suction tube to the adapter. The clips

on the standard floorhead, turbobrush

or floorbrush can then be fitted securely

into the two point holder on the side of

the cleaner (see "Description of the ap-

pliance", illustration point 12).
