Adjusting The Suction Power - Miele S 6210 Operating Instructions Manual

Correct use
Vacuuming
^ When vacuuming, pull the cleaner
behind you on its wheels. You can
stand it upright for vacuuming stairs
and curtains etc.
Warning: When vacuuming
especially fine dust, e.g. sawdust,
sand, plaster, flour, talcum powder
etc., electrostatic charges build up
naturally. Under certain conditions
these charges will be released. To
avoid the unpleasant effects of these
discharges, a metal inlay has been
incorporated into the underside of
the handle. Please make sure that
you keep your hand in constant
contact with this metal strip during
vacuuming.
Rotary selector
^ Turn the suction power selector
manually to the suction power setting
you require.

Adjusting the suction power

The suction power can be regulated to
suit the type of flooring. The higher the
setting the more powerful the suction.
Reducing the suction power reduces
the amount of effort required to
manoeuvre the floorhead.
Some models also have symbols on the
controls. The symbols indicate the type
of use the settings are suitable for:
# - curtains, lightweight fabrics
$ - upholstery, cushions
% - thick pile carpets, rugs and
runners
* - for daily energy-saving vacuuming
(this setting is also very quiet)
( - loop-pile carpets
) - heavily soiled hard flooring and for
intensive cleaning of carpets
