Frequently Asked Questions - Compact C1 Young Style MIELE

How to replace the dust bag?
Press the release button to open the dust compartment cover. The bag closes automatically thanks to the hygiene closure. Remove the bag by the handle and insert a new Original Miele bag until it stops. Close the cover, making sure not to pinch the bag.
When to replace the motor filter?
It is advisable to replace the motor filter each time you open a new pack of Miele dust bags (approximately every 4 bags). Follow the instructions in the manual to remove and replace it.
How to replace the exhaust filter?
Open the dust compartment, remove the used filter by the square hygiene corner. Insert the new AirClean filter or the corresponding type (Active AirClean 50 or HEPA AirClean 50). Close the grille and the cover.
What to do if the vacuum cleaner suddenly stops?
A temperature limiter stops the vacuum cleaner in case of overheating. This may be due to a blocked hose, a full bag, or dirty filters. Unplug the appliance, eliminate the cause and wait 20-30 minutes before restarting.
How to use the Ideal Pause system for a break?
For a break, insert the brush using the tab into the Ideal Pause holder located on the vacuum cleaner. This allows you to fix the tube and brush during the interruption.
How to adjust the suction power?
Use the rotary dial on the vacuum cleaner to adapt the power to the floor type. The positions are indicated by symbols (curtains, furniture, carpet, etc.). Reduce the power if the brush is difficult to push.
Which dust bags to use?
Use exclusively dust bags bearing the Original Miele logo, type F/J/M. Unsuitable bags may burst and damage the appliance.

This vacuum cleaner complies with statutory safety requirements. Improper use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the vacuum cleaner, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, operation and maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner.

Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains supply when you have finished using it, before changing over accessories, as well as for maintenance work and cleaning. Switch the vacuum cleaner off at the wall socket and unplug it.

Correct application

This vacuum cleaner is intended for cleaning flooring in domestic households and similar residential environments.
This vacuum cleaner is intended for daily cleaning of carpets, rugs and robust hard flooring.
This vacuum cleaner is not intended for outdoor use.

The vacuum cleaner must only be used to vacuum dry floor surfaces. Do not use on people or animals. Any other usage, modification or alteration is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.
This vacuum cleaner can only be used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequences of incorrect operation.

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the vacuum cleaner unless they are constantly supervised.
Children 8 years and older may only use the vacuum cleaner unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the vacuum cleaner unsupervised.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the vacuum cleaner and do not let them play with it.

Technical safety

Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories, check for any visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

Ensure that the connection data on the data plate of the vacuum cleaner (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply exactly.

The mains electrical plug must be fitted with a 13 A fuse (UK).

While the vacuum cleaner is under guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guarantee 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 appliance must not be used if any of these have suffered damage.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the cable is damaged. If the cable is damaged it must be replaced together with a complete cable rewind. For safety reasons this work must be done by the Miele Service Department or a Miele authorised service technician.

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 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.
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

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.
Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or is still glowing e.g. cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether glowing or apparently extinguished.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up any water, liquid or damp dirt. Wait until any freshly cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor coverings are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.

  • Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust. Toner, such as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
  • Do not vacuum up any inflammable or combustible liquids or gases and do not vacuum in areas where such substances are stored.
    Floor attachments, accessories and tubes must not be used at head level to avoid the risk of injury, e.g. to eyes and ears.

Accessories

To avoid the risk of injury when vacuuming with a Miele Turbobrush, do not touch the rotating roller brush.
It is not advisable to vacuum directly with the handle, i.e. without an accessory attached as the rim could get damaged and you could hurt yourself on sharp edges.
Only use genuine dustbags, filters and accessories with the "Original Miele" logo on them. Otherwise the manufacturer cannot guarantee the safety of the product.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect use or operation or by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Disposal of packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum cleaner from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.

Disposing of the dustbag and filters

These are made from environmentally friendly materials. The filters can be disposed of with the normal household waste. The dustbag can also be disposed of in this way if it has been used exclusively for general household dust.

Disposing of your old appliance

Before disposing of your old appliance remove the dustbag and all the filters and dispose of them with your normal household waste.

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

AirTeQ floorhead (dia. 9)

If the suction power of the AirTeQ floorhead seems too high, reduce the suction until the floorhead is easier to manoeuvre (see "Use - To regulate the suction power").

To activate the exhaust filter change indicator

Depending on model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters (dia. 10):

a AirClean
b Active AirClean 50 (black)
c HEPA AirClean 50 (white)

If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with filter b or c, you need to activate the exhaust filter change indicator.

    Press the rewind foot switch. The cable will rewind automatically.

To switch on and off (dia. 21)

Press the On/Off foot control ①.

To regulate the suction power (dia. 22)

The suction power can be regulated to suit the type of flooring being cleaned. Reducing the suction power reduces the amount of effort required to manoeuvre the floorhead.

The vacuum cleaner has symbols on the controls which indicate the type of use the settings are suitable for.

-curtains, fabric
- upholstery, cushions
- thick pile carpets, rugs and runners
- for energy-saving vacuuming (this setting is also very quiet)

When using the AirTeQ 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. 23)

It is easy to reduce the suction power for a short time, e.g. to prevent rugs or other objects being sucked into the vacuum cleaner.
- Open the air inlet valve on the handle far enough to reduce the suction power.

The floorhead will be easier to manoeuvre. Close the valve when you are ready to use full power again.

During vacuuming (dia. 24)

  • When vacuuming, pull the cleaner behind you on its wheels. You can stand it upright for vacuuming stairs and curtains etc.

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 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.

Setting down, transportation and storage

Park system for pauses whilst vacuuming (dia. 25)

The Park system allows you to conveniently park the suction tube and floorhead during pauses.

Slot the floorhead into the parking attachment at the back of the vacuum cleaner.

If your vacuum cleaner is on a sloping surface, e.g. a ramp, - retract the telescopic tube fully - do not use the park system if your vacuum cleaner has an EasyLock suction tube.

Park system for storage (dia. 26 + 27)

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.

If your vacuum cleaner has an EasyLock suction tube you can separate the two sections for storage purposes.

Press the release button on the lower section and pull the top section out.
Push the connection piece attached to the upper tube into the lower tube.
- Stand the vacuum cleaner upright.

If your vacuum cleaner has a telescopic tube, retract the tubes fully so that it takes up less room for storage.

Slot the floorhead downwards into the parking attachment on the side of the vacuum cleaner.

This makes the vacuum cleaner easier to carry or store.

Maintenance

Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for maintenance work and for cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and unplug it.

The Miele filtration system consists of three filters.

Dustbag
- Dust compartment filter (for motor protection)
- Exhaust filter

These will need to be replaced from time to time to ensure that your vacuum cleaner performs efficiently.

Only use genuine dustbags, filters and accessories with the "Original Miele" logo on them. This will ensure that the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is maintained, giving the best possible cleaning results.

The use of dustbags made from paper or paper-based materials, or dustbags with a cardboard collar, or dustbags that do not carry the "Original Miele" logo, can seriously damage the vacuum cleaner and invalidate the warranty.

Purchasing new dustbags and filters

Original Miele dustbags and filters can be ordered from Miele, your Miele dealer or online at:

MIELE Compact C1 Young Style - Purchasing new dustbags and filters - 1

www.miele-shop.com

Ordering the correct dustbags and filters

Only use original Miele F/J/M dustbags with a red collar and original Miele filters. These are identified by the "Original Miele" logo on the packaging or directly on the dustbag.

MIELE Compact C1 Young Style - Ordering the correct dustbags and filters - 1

MIELE Compact C1 Young Style - Ordering the correct dustbags and filters - 2

An AirClean filter and a dust compartment filter are supplied with every packet of Miele dustbags.

These can also be purchased separately from your Miele Dealer, from Miele or from the online shop. Please quote the model number of your vacuum cleaner when ordering to make sure you get the correct filter.

When to change the dustbag (dia. 28)

Change the dustbag when the colour marker in the dustbag change indicator turns red, or sooner if it is no longer effective (see possible reasons for this below).

Miele dustbags are disposable and designed for single use only. Dispose of the dustbag when full. Do not attempt to reuse. Blocked pores in used dustbags will reduce the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

To check the dustbag change indicator

  • Attach the standard floorhead to the suction tube.
  • Switch the vacuum cleaner on and select the highest power setting.
  • Lift the floorhead off the floor a little.

How the dustbag change indicator works

The dustbag change indicator is set for normal household dust. This generally contains a mixture of dust, hair, threads, carpet fluff, grit etc.

However, if the cleaner has been used to vacuum up fine dust, such as plaster, brick dust, cement or flour, the pores of the dustbag will become blocked very quickly. This affects the air permeability of the bag, and the marker will indicate that the bag is "full" even when it is not. If this happens you must still change the dustbag because suction power will be greatly reduced by blocked pores in the dustbag.

If, on the other hand, a large amount of hair and carpet fluff which typically contains a lot of air is vacuumed up, the indicator may fail to react even though the bag is full. You should still change it. Both these extremes can occur.

How to replace the dustbag (dia. 29 + 30)

Press the release catch for the dust compartment lid and raise the lid as far as it will go (dia. 11).

The dustbag has a closing flap which closes automatically when the dust compartment lid is raised to prevent any dust escaping.

Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the collar.
Fit the new dustbag into the holder as far as it will go. Leave it folded up when you take it out of the box.
It should be unfolded as far as possible in the dust compartment.
- Close the dust compartment lid securely, making sure it clicks into position. Take care not to trap the dustbag when doing so.

The lid will not close without a dustbag in place. Do not force it!

When to change the dust compartment filter (for motor protection)

Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of dustbags. A dust compartment filter is supplied with every packet of Miele dustbags.

How to change the dust compartment filter (dia. 31)

  • Open the dust compartment lid.
    Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the collar.
  • Lift up the filter frame until it clicks and remove the old filter. Hold by the clean, unsoiled section to remove it.
  • Replace with a new dust compartment filter.
  • Close the filter frame.

Fit the dustbag into the holder as far as it will go.
- Close the dust compartment lid.

When to replace the exhaust filter

Depending on model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters (dia. 10):

a AirClean

Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of Miele dustbags. An AirClean exhaust filter is supplied with every packet of Miele dustbags.

b Active AirClean 50 (black)
c HEPA AirClean 50 (white)

Replace if the display for the exhaust filter change indicator is completely filled with red (dia. 15).

This occurs after approx. 50 hours of operation which is equivalent to about a year of average use. The vacuum cleaner can still be used. However, the suction power will be reduced as will the effectiveness of the filter if it is not replaced in good time.

How to replace the AirClean filter (dia. 32 + 33

Do not use more than one exhaust filter at a time.

  • Open the dust compartment lid.
    Open the filter grille.
  • Grasp the used AirClean filter by one of the clean, unsoiled sections and take it out.
    Replace it with a new AirClean filter.

If you wish to fit an Active AirClean 50 filter or a HEPA AirClean 50 filter please see "Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another".

  • Close the filter grille.
  • Close the dust compartment lid.

How to replace an Active AirClean 50 filter or a HEPA AirClean 50 filter (dia. 34 + 35

Do not use more than one exhaust filter at a time.

  • Open the dust compartment lid.
  • Lift the exhaust filter and remove it.
    Insert a new exhaust filter making it sure it goes in properly, then push it down into position.
    Press the exhaust filter change indicator (dia. 13).
    After approx. 10 - 15 seconds a thin red stripe will appear in the left hand side of the display (dia. 14).

If you wish to fit an AirClean filter, see "Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another".

  • Close the dust compartment lid.

Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another

Depending on model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters (dia. 10):

a AirClean
b Active AirClean 50 (black)
c HEPA AirClean 50 (white)

When changing the filter please note:

  1. If you wish to replace exhaust filter a with filter b or c, it is essential that you remove the filter grille before fitting the new type of filter (dia. 35). You will also need to press the exhaust filter change indicator (dia. 13).
  2. If you wish to replace exhaust filter b or c with filter a, it is essential that you also fit the filter grille * (dia. 33).

  3. Filter grille - see "Optional accessories".

Do not use more than one exhaust filter at a time.

When to change the thread lifters

The thread lifters on the suction inlet to the floorhead can be replaced.

Check them from time to time and replace them if the pile has worn down.

How to replace the thread lifters (dia. 36)

Use a suitable screwdriver to remove the thread lifters from the slots.
Fit new thread lifters.

Replacement parts are available from your Miele Dealer or from Miele (see end of booklet for contact details).

Cleaning and care

Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for maintenance work and for cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and unplug it.

Vacuum cleaner and accessories

The vacuum cleaner and all plastic accessories can be cleaned with a dry or a slightly damp cloth, or with a proprietary cleaner suitable for plastic.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, glass cleaning agents, all-purpose cleaners or oil-based conditioning agents.

Dust compartment

The dust compartment can, if necessary, be cleaned using a dry duster, brush or, if available, a second vacuum cleaner to vacuum the dust out.

Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. If moisture gets into the appliance, there is a risk of electric shock.

Problem solving guide

The vacuum cleaner switches off automatically.

A temperature limiter switches the vacuum cleaner off automatically if it gets too hot.

This can occur if, for instance, large articles block the suction tube or when the dustbag is full or contains particles of fine dust. A heavily soiled exhaust or dust compartment filter can also be the cause of overheating. Switch the vacuum cleaner off immediately using the On/Off foot control ①. Disconnect from the electrical supply. Switch off at the wall socket and unplug it.

After removing the cause, wait for approximately 20 - 30 minutes to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool down. It can then be switched on again.
