Warning and Safety instructions
~
The wall socket must be protected against short
circuit by a delay fuse 16 A or 10 A.
~
Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele
authorised service technician. Repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be dangerous and will
invalidate the warranty. The manufacturer cannot be
held liable for unauthorised work.
~
Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable
and be careful not to damage the cable when with-
drawing the plug from the socket. Keep the cable away
from sharp edges and do not let it be squashed, for
example, under a door.
Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
This could damage the cable, plug or socket and pose
a safety hazard.
~
Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the mains cable is
damaged. If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced
together with a complete cable rewind. For safety
reasons, this must only be done by the Miele Service
Department or by a Miele authorised service technician.
~
There is a metal inlay underneath the handle which is
designed to avoid the unpleasant effects of electrostatic
discharges. Please make sure that you keep your hand in
constant contact with this metal strip during vacuuming.
