Miele SEB 228 Electro Plus Operating Instructions Manual page 13

On/off switch on the handle
The electro hoses (SES) have an on/off
switch on the handle which can be
used to switch the Electrobrush on and
off independently.
This means that you can switch the
Electrobrush off during vacuuming and
the vacuum cleaner will continue to op-
erate using suction only. This is useful
when moving from vacuuming a fitted
carpet to a rug, for example.
Problem solving
The Electrobrush switches itself off.
The overheating protection mechanism
has been activated due to overheating
or a blockage.
 Disconnect the vacuum cleaner from
the electrical supply immediately.
Switch off at the wall socket and un-
plug it.
 Check the vacuum cleaner for any
blockages and check all the filters in
the vacuum cleaner.
The Electrobrush has to cool down. To
speed this up:
 Reconnect the vacuum cleaner to the
mains supply and switch it back on.
The Electrobrush will be ready for use
again after about ten minutes.
Maintenance

Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the power supply for
maintenance work and for cleaning.
Switch off at the wall socket and un-
plug it.
Removing threads and hairs (dia. 5)
 Use scissors to cut any threads or
hairs which have wound around the
roller brush. There is a groove on the
roller to guide you.
Then run the vacuum cleaner to va-
cuum up the bits.
