
Ensure that the connection data on the data plate of the
vacuum cleaner (voltage and frequency) match the mains
electricity supply exactly. The vacuum cleaner is suitable
for use with 50 Hz or 60 Hz without modification.

The mains electrical plug must be fitted with an appro-
priate fuse.

Reliable and safe operation of this vacuum cleaner can
only be assured if it has been connected to the mains elec-
tricity supply.

While the vacuum cleaner is under warranty, repairs
should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service
technician. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.

Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable,
and be careful not to damage the cable when withdrawing
the plug from the socket. Keep the cable away from sharp
edges and do not let it get squashed, for example, under a
door. Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
This could damage the cable, plug or socket. The appli-
ance must not be used if any of these have suffered dam-
age.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the mains cable is
damaged. If the mains cable is damaged it must be re-
placed with an original cable. For safety reasons this must
only be done by Miele Service or a Miele authorised ser-
vice technician.
