Miele TX2070 Operating Instructions Manual page 27

When vacuuming fine dust, e.g. sawdust, sand, plaster,

flour, talcum powder etc., electrostatic charges build up
naturally. Under certain conditions these charges will be
released. To avoid the unpleasant effects of these dis‐
charges, 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. If your vacuum cleaner is equipped with an
EcoComfort handle, please make sure that you keep your
hand on the top bowed part of the handle all the time. This
part of the handle has special static reduction in it.
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a

dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from
the mains supply.
Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorised

service technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons can cause considerable danger to users.
Correct use
Floor attachments, accessories and tubes must not be

used at head level.
To avoid the risk of damage, do not use the vacuum

cleaner without the dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter in place.
The dust compartment cover will not close without a

dustbag fitted. Do not force it.
