Setting Down And Storing The Vacuum Cleaner - Miele HS12 Manual

It is easy to reduce the suction power
for a short time, e.g. to prevent rugs or
other objects being sucked into the va-
cuum cleaner.
 Open the air inlet valve on the handle
far enough to reduce the suction
power.
The floorhead will be easier to man-
oeuvre. Close the valve when you are
ready to use full power again.

Park System for pauses during vacu-
uming
The Park System allows you to conveni-
ently park the suction tube and floor-
head during pauses.
 Slot the floorhead into the slot in the
parking attachment.
If your vacuum cleaner is on a slop-
ing surface, e.g. a ramp,
- retract the telescopic suction tube
fully
- do not use the park system if your
vacuum cleaner has an EasyLock
suction tube.
Park System for storage

Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the electrical supply
when you have finished using it.
Switch it off at the wall socket and
unplug it.
 Stand the vacuum cleaner upright.
If your vacuum cleaner has a tele-
scopic suction tube, retract the tubes
fully so that it takes up less room for
storage.
 Slot the floorhead downwards into
the parking attachment.
If your vacuum cleaner has an Easy-
Lock suction tube you can separate the
two sections for storage purposes.
