Setting Down, Transportation And Storage - Miele COMPACT C2 Operating Instructions Manual

When using the adjustable floorhead,
if the suction seems too high, reduce
the suction until the floorhead is
easier to manoeuvre.
 Turn the suction power selector
manually to the suction power setting
you require.
To open the air inlet valve (dia. 22)
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.
During vacuuming
 When vacuuming, pull the cleaner be-
hind you on its wheels. You can stand
it upright for vacuuming stairs and
curtains etc.

When vacuuming, in particular
fine dust, e.g. sawdust, sand, plaster,
flour, talcum powder etc., electro-
static charges build up naturally. Un-
der certain conditions these charges
will be released. To avoid the un-
pleasant 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 (dia.
23).
Setting down, transportation
and storage
Park System for pauses during
vacuuming (dia. 24)
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 tube fully.
Park system for storage (dia. 25)

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.
Retract the telescopic tube fully so
that the vacuum cleaner takes up less
room for storage.
 Slot the floorhead downwards into
one of the parking attachments on
the side of the vacuum cleaner.
This makes the vacuum cleaner easier
to carry or store.
If your vacuum cleaner has an XXL
handle, you can detach this so that the
vacuum cleaner requires less storage
space (dia. 26).
 Detach the XXL handle from the re-
tracted telescopic suction tube.
