Maintenance For The Beater Bar - Miele S176i Operating Instructions Manual

IMPORTANT NOTE: Before replacing any part always,
DISCONNECT THE CLEANER FROM THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
BLOCKAGES

is still empty, a blockage may have occurred.
To remove the obstruction, proceed as follow:
Remove the hose from the suction inlet by turning the hose to the right and pulling it out (Fig. 1). Clear any
obstruction from the hose and/or suction inlet using a blunt instrument, taking care not to damage the hose.
If the obstruction occurs in the suction pipe, it can be removed with care as shown in Fig. 2.
