Replacing The Dustbag - Miele s5981 Operating Instrucctions

Maintenance and care

Replacing the dustbag

^ Push up the release button for the
dust compartment lid and raise the
lid as far as it will go.
The dustbag has a closing flap which
closes automatically when the dust
compartment lid is raised to prevent
any dust escaping.
^ Pull the dustbag out by the grip next
to the self-closing flap on the collar.
^ Fit the new dustbag into the holder as
far as it will go. Leave it folded up
when you take it out of the box.
^ It should be unfolded in the dust
compartment.
^ Close the dust compartment lid
securely, making sure it clicks into
position. Take care not to trap the
dustbag when doing so.
,
The lid will not close without a
dustbag in place. Do not force it.
