~
Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the cable is damaged. If the
cable is damaged the complete cable unit must be replaced. For
safety reasons this work must be done by the Miele Service
Department or a Miele authorised service technician.
~
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains supply
when you have finished using it, before changing over accessories,
as well as for maintenance work and cleaning. Switch the vacuum
cleaner off at the wall socket and unplug it.
~
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a dry cloth
or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the mains supply.
Correct use
~
Never touch the roller brush while it is rotating.
~
Do not use the Electrobrush at head level.
~
Do not use the suction hose or telescopic tube at head level to
avoid the risk of injury, e.g. to eyes and ears.
~
To avoid the risk of damage, do not use the vacuum cleaner
without the dustbag, dust compartment filter and exhaust filter in
place.
~
If the dustbag is not fitted correctly, the dust compartment cover
does not normally close. Do not force it.
~
Do not vacuum up any water, liquid or damp dirt. Wait until any
freshly cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor coverings are
completely dry before attempting to vacuum.
~
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner, such as that used in printers
and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
~
Do not vacuum up any inflammable or combustible matter or
gases and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are
stored.
