Disposal of the packing mater- ial The packaging is designed to protect the appliance 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 manufactur- ing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Disposing of the dustbag and filters Dustbags and filters are made from en- vironmentally friendly materials, and can be disposed of with the normal house- hold waste, as long as they have been used exclusively for general household dust. Disposing of your old appli- ance Before disposing of your old appliance remove the dustbag and filters and dis- pose of them with your household waste. Electrical and electronic appliances of- ten contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, com- pounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to hu- man health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste. Please dispose of it at your local com- munity waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic ap- pliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also respons- ible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appli- ance poses no risk to children while be- ing stored prior to disposal.en - Guide to the appliance

Preparing for use Assembling the vacuum cleaner (dia. 01) Raise the vacuum cleaner into the vertical position. Insert the handle into the vacuum cleaner until it clicks into position. Activating the exhaust filter timestrip® change indicator on the exhaust filter Depending on model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters (dia. 02). a AirClean b Active AirClean 30 (black) c HEPA AirClean 30 (white) If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with fil- ter b or c, you need to activate the ex- haust filter timestrip® change indicator. Open the lid of the exhaust filter com- partment and pull the exhaust filter a little way out of the holder (dia. 03). Remove the label, then put the ex- haust filter back in again (dia. 04). Press the exhaust filter timestrip® change indicator (dia. 05). After approx. 10 - 15 seconds, a thin red line will appear in the left hand side of the display (dia. 06). Close the exhaust filter compartment lid. How the exhaust filter timestrip® works The exhaust filter timestrip® indicator shows the remaining functional life of the exhaust filter. After approx. 50 oper- ating hours, or approx. one year of av- erage use, the display will be com- pletely filled with red (dia. 07). Use Unwind the mains cable (dia. 08) The lower cable hook swivels. Turn it upwards to release the cable. Winding up the mains cable (dia. 09) When the vacuum cleaner is not in use, the cable can be wound around the two cable hooks. Secure the mains cable by clamping the plug to the cable (see detail). Mains cable whilst vacuuming (dia. 10) Whilst vacuuming, the mains cable can be fed through the guide at the side of the upper cable hook. This way the mains cable will not get in the way during vacuuming. This also protects the cable from becoming kinked. To release the vacuum cleaner (dia. 11) Step on the foot release briefly and tilt the vacuum cleaner to a comfort- able position for vacuuming.en

Switching on and off (dia. 12) Please observe the flooring manu- facturer's cleaning and care instruc- tions. Press the I button on the handle. The vacuum cleaner will switch on. The vacuum cleaner in-operation indic- ator light on the control unit will light up yellow. To regulate the suction power 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 man- oeuvre the floorhead. Rotary selector (dia. 13) Turn the suction power selector manually to the suction power setting you require. Obstacles (dia. 14) Obstacles and variations in floor height, for instance when vacuuming over thresholds and the edges of rugs, are easy to cope with. Briefly press the foot release and lift the front of the vacuum cleaner over the obstacle. Vacuuming using the suction hose Do not vacuum with the suction hose handle at head level to avoid the risk of injury. Be careful when vacuuming dir- ectly with the handle of the suction hose, without an accessory at- tached, that the handle is not dam- aged. Danger of injury. To prevent the risk of injury when vacuuming the stairs, ensure the va- cuum cleaner is placed on a lower step. Raise the vacuum cleaner into the vertical position. Press the release button on the tele- scopic tube to detach the suction hose handle (dia. 15). To increase stability turn the elbow joint at the bottom of the hose down- wards as illustrated until it clicks into position above the retainer (dia. 16). During normal vacuuming, the suc- tion hose handle should be securely connected to the telescopic tube. Make sure the handle is correctly hooked into its holder on the vacuum cleaner (dia. 15). Vacuuming using the telescopic suc- tion tube Do not vacuum with the tele- scopic suction tube at head level to avoid the risk of injury. To prevent the risk of injury when vacuuming the stairs, ensure the va- cuum cleaner is placed on a lower step. Raise the vacuum cleaner into the vertical position.en

Lift the handle out of its holder to ac- cess the telescopic suction tube (dia. 17). To increase stability turn the elbow joint at the bottom of the hose down- wards as illustrated until it clicks into position above the retainer (dia. 16). One part of the telescopic suction tube is packed inside the other, and it can be adjusted to suit your height for comfort- able vacuuming. Press the release button and adjust the telescopic suction tube to the de- sired height (dia. 18). For normal vacuum cleaning, the parts of the telescopic tube must be pushed back together and hooked back into position. Make sure the handle is correctly hooked into its holder on the vacuum cleaner (dia. 17). Using the Electrobrush Recommended use Please observe the flooring manu- facturer's cleaning and care instruc- tions. The Electrobrush is particularly suitable for intensive vacuuming of carpets which are subject to hard wear. It is very effective at removing deep seated dirt and preventing areas of frequent use being trodden into a path. Please note that the Electrobrush should not be used for vacuuming deep-pile rugs and carpets or valu- able hand-knotted rugs, e.g. Persian and oriental rugs etc. There is a danger of the threads being pulled out. If in doubt, contact the carpet manufacturer/retailer. Do not use the Electrobrush to clean highly variable or uneven floors. The brush might come into contact with the floor and cause damage. Switching the Electrobrush on and off (dia. 19) To use the Electrobrush, you need to switch it on in addition to the vacuum cleaner with the button on the handle. The Electrobrush indicator light on the control unit will light up yellow. This button also enables you to switch off the Electrobrush during vacuuming. The Electrobrush will switch itself off automatically as soon as the vacuum cleaner is raised to its upright posi- tion. How to use the Electrobrush To achieve the best results, pass the Electrobrush slowly backwards and forwards over the carpet or floor. For rugs with fringes always draw the Electrobrush from the middle of the rug across the fringe towards the floor.en

Using the accessories supplied (dia. 20) The following accessories are stowed at the rear of the vacuum cleaner. Upholstery nozzle Crevice nozzle, 300mm Dusting brush with natural bristles (only available in selected coun- tries) Attach the accessory required onto the suction hose handle or onto the telescopic suction tube. Maintenance Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for maintenance work and for cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and un- plug it. The Miele filtration system consists of three components: – Original Miele dustbag – Motor protection filter – Original Miele exhaust filter These will need to be replaced from time to time to ensure that your vacuum cleaner performs efficiently. We recommend only using genuine dustbags, filters and accessories with the “ORIGINAL Miele” logo on them. This will ensure that the suc- tion power of the vacuum cleaner is maintained, giving the best possible cleaning results. Dustbags with the “ORIGINAL Miele” logo on them are not made from pa- per or paper-based materials and nor do they have a cardboard collar. This is why our dustbags are particularly long-lasting and reliable. Please note that appliance faults and damage originating from the use of accessories which do not carry the “ORIGINAL Miele” logo will not be covered by the appliance guarantee. Purchasing new dustbags and filters Original Miele dustbags and filters are available from the Miele webshop, the Miele Spare Parts Department and your Miele dealer. Ordering the correct dustbags and filters Only use original Miele Udustbags with a green collar and original Miele filters. These are identified by the “ORIGINAL Miele” logo on the packaging. Every packet of original Miele dustbags contains four dustbags, one AirClean exhaust filter and one motor protectionen

filter. Original Miele multipacks contain 16 dustbags, four AirClean exhaust fil- ters and four motor protection filters. Original Miele exhaust filters can also be purchased separately from your Miele dealer or from the Miele Spare Parts Dept. Please quote the model number of your vacuum cleaner when ordering to make sure you get the cor- rect filter. You can also order all ac- cessories via the Miele webshop. When to change the dustbag (dia. 21) Change the dustbag when the colour marker in the dustbag change indicator turns red, or sooner if it is no longer ef- fective (see possible reasons for this below). Miele dustbags are disposable and designed for single use only. Dispose of the dustbag when full. Do not at- tempt to reuse. Blocked pores in used dustbags will reduce the suc- tion power of the vacuum cleaner. To check the dustbag change indic- ator Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is in the vertical position. Switch the vacuum cleaner on with the I button on the handle and select highest power setting. Tilt the vacuum cleaner until you can see the colour marker in the dustbag change indicator easily. The front of the Electrobrush will lift up as you do this. If the marker completely fills the dust- bag change indicator, you should re- place the dustbag with a new one. 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 con- tains a lot of air is vacuumed up, the in- dicator may fail to react even though the bag is full. For this reason, you should check the dustbag regularly and change it if necessary. Both these ex- tremes can occur. How to replace the dustbag (dia. 22, 23 + 24) Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is in the vertical position. Raise the release button and open the lid to its resting position. Pull the tab on the collar and swing the bag up away from the suction socket before taking it out of its holder.en

The dustbag has a closing flap which closes automatically when the dust compartment lid is raised to prevent any dust escaping. 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 pos- sible in the dust compartment. Close the dust compartment lid se- curely, making sure it clicks into posi- tion. Take care not to trap the dust- bag when doing so. The dustbag is then automatically guided into posi- tion for vacuuming. The lid will not close without a dustbag in place. Do not force it! When to change the motor protection filter Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of dustbags. Every packet of original Miele dustbags contains a motor protection filter. Mul- tipacks contain four motor protection filters (only available in selected coun- tries). How to change the dust compart- ment filter (dia. 25) Open the dust compartment lid. Remove the dustbag. Unclip the filter frame in the dust compartment and remove the old fil- ter. Hold by the clean, unsoiled sec- tion to remove it. Replace with a new dust compart- ment filter. Close the filter frame. Fit the dustbag into the holder as far as it will go. Close the dust compartment lid se- curely, making sure it clicks into posi- tion. Take care not to trap the dust- bag when doing so. When to replace the exhaust filter Depending on the model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters (dia. 02). a AirClean Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of dustbags. Every packet of original Miele dustbags contains one AirClean exhaust filter. Multipacks con- tain four AirClean filters. b Active AirClean 30 (black) c HEPA AirClean 30 (white) Replace this filter when the exhaust fil- ter timestrip® change indicator is com- pletely red (dia. 07). The indicator lights up after approximately 50 hours of op- eration, which is equivalent to about a year of average use. You can continue vacuuming when the light comes on. However, the suction power will be re- duced as will the effectiveness of the fil- ter if it is not replaced in good time. How to replace the AirClean exhaust filter (dia. 26, 27 + 28) Do not use more than one exhaust fil- ter at a time. Open the exhaust filter compartment lid. Remove the filter grille.en

Open the filter grille and remove the used AirClean filter by one of the clean, unsoiled sections. Replace it with a new AirClean filter. If you wish to fit an Active AirClean30 or a HEPA AirClean30, see “Maintenance - Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another”. Secure the catch on the filter grille and replace it inside the exhaust filter compartment. Close the exhaust filter compartment lid. Replacing the Active AirClean 30 and HEPA AirClean 30 exhaust filters (dia. 29) Do not use more than one exhaust fil- ter at a time. Open the exhaust filter compartment lid. Remove the exhaust filter. Insert the new exhaust filter and press the exhaust filter timestrip® change indicator (dia. 05). After approx. 10 - 15 seconds, a thin red line will appear in the left hand side of the display (dia. 06). If you wish to fit an AirClean filter, see “Maintenance - Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another”. Close the exhaust filter compartment lid. Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another (dia. 02) Depending on model, your vacuum cleaner will be fitted as standard with one of the following exhaust filters: a AirClean b Active AirClean 30 (black) c HEPA AirClean 30 (white) Do not use more than one exhaust fil- ter at a time. 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 you fit the new exhaust filter. You must also activate the exhaust filter timestrip® change indicator (dia. 05).

2. If you wish to replace exhaust filter b

or c with filter a, you must insert the new filter into a filter grille * before in- stalling (dia. 27).

• Filter grille - see “Optional ac- cessories” How to remove threads and hair from the Electrobrush Switch the Electrobrush and the va- cuum cleaner off, switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Release the vacuum cleaner (dia. 11) and place it flat on the floor. Turn the vacuum cleaner over.en

Use scissors to cut any threads or hairs which have wound around the roller brush. There is a groove on the roller to guide you (dia. 30). Then run the vacuum cleaner to va- cuum up the bits. The bottom of the suction hose can be accessed to remove any heavy soiling or blockages. Any large particles inside it can then be easily removed. Raise the vacuum cleaner into the vertical position. Press the release button on the tele- scopic tube to detach the suction hose handle (dia. 15). To increase stability turn the elbow joint at the bottom of the hose down- wards as illustrated until it clicks into position above the retainer (dia. 16). Unlock the hose connector by turn- ing it in the direction of the arrow (dia. 31). Now remove the hose connector from the elbow by pulling it (dia. 31). Remove any debris or blockages. Replace the connector making sure it goes on straight. Lock it into position. If you have not been able to reach all of the soiling, you could also try the fol- lowing. Unlock the panel at the back of the va- cuum cleaner as follows (dia. 32). Using a coin turn the two screws as far as they will go. Lever off the panel. Remove any debris or blockages. Replace the panel and lock it with the screws. Cleaning and care Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply be- fore cleaning it. Switch off at the wall socket and unplug it. Vacuum cleaner and accessories The vacuum cleaner and all plastic ac- cessories can be cleaned with a propri- etary cleaner suitable for plastic. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, glass cleaning agents, all- purpose cleaners or oil-based condi- tioning agents. Dust compartment The dust compartment can, if neces- sary, 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 ap- pliance, there is a risk of electric shock.en

Problem solving guide Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be needed. The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault, and to correct it. Problem Cause and remedy The vacuum cleaner switches off automatic- ally. The overheating protection mechanism has been ac- tivated due to overheating or a blockage. The vacuum cleaner in-operation indicator light will light up red. Switch the Electrobrush and the vacuum cleaner off, switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Check the vacuum cleaner for any blockages and check all the filters in the vacuum cleaner. Once the blockage has been removed, do not use the vacuum cleaner for about 20 - 30 minutes to allow it to cool down. The Electrobrush switches itself off. The Electrobrush indicator light is lit up red. The red light indicates a blockage in the roller; for ex- ample, due to a large item being vacuumed up. Switch the Electrobrush and the vacuum cleaner off, switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Remove the blockage. The vacuum cleaner can then be used again.en

Problem Cause and remedy The Electrobrush switches itself off. The Electrobrush indicator light will continue to light up yellow. The overheating protection mechanism has been ac- tivated due to overheating or a blockage, for example. Switch the Electrobrush and the vacuum cleaner off, switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Check the vacuum cleaner for any blockages and check all the filters in the vacuum cleaner. The Electrobrush has to cool down. To speed this up: Reconnect the vacuum cleaner to the mains sup- ply and switch it back on. Vacuum for approx. 10 minutes without switching the Electrobrush on. This will cool the Electrobrush down so that it can then be used again as normal.en
