Illustrations The illustrations referred to in the text are shown on the fold-out pages at the end of these operating instruc‐ tions. Turbobrush features The Turbobrush is operated by the suc‐ tion power of the vacuum cleaner. It has a rotating roller brush which is very effective at picking up thread, hairs and fluff. Four rollers maintain the brush 1.5 mm away from the floor. Recommended use The Turbobrush should not be used for vacuuming deep-pile rugs and carpets or valuable hand-knot‐ ted rugs and carpets, e.g. Persian and oriental rugs etc. There is a dan‐ ger of the threads being pulled out. Do not use the Turbobrush to clean highly textured or uneven floors. The brush might come into contact with the floor and cause damage. The Turbobrush is particularly suitable for vacuuming thread and hair from cut pile carpeting. The standard floorhead or one of the Miele floorbrushes should be used for cleaning hard floors. It is also important to observe the flooring manufacturer's cleaning and care instructions. Using the Turbobrush To achieve the best effect, pass the Turbobrush slowly backwards and forwards over the carpet or floor co‐ vering. For carpets with fringes always draw the Turbobrush from the carpet across the fringe towards the rest of the floor. Fitting the Turbobrush Model STB 205 (dia. 01) This Turbobrush is intended for use with Miele vacuum cleaners. Instead of the usual floor attachment, fit the Turbobrush to the suction tube by twisting it to the left and right. En‐ sure that the locking device engages. Model STB 201 Vario (dia. 02) This Turbobrush has an adjustable con‐ nector. It can be used on any suction tube with a diameter of between 30 and 38 mm. The Turbobrush should, howev‐ er, only be used with the vacuum clean‐ er set to its highest power setting. Open the air inlet valve (dia. 03) The brush is operated by the suction power of the vacuum cleaner. With deeper, dense pile carpets the roller brush may rotate more slowly. This is caused by the carpet pile creating a seal around the mouth of the Turbo‐ brush and hindering the flow of air. This will affect how well the carpet is brush‐ ed. To increase the airflow, open the air inlet valve (left hand illustration).en

In all other situations the air inlet valve should be closed, to benefit from the full suction power. Close the air inlet valve (right hand il‐ lustration). Maintenance Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for cleaning and maintenance work on the Turbobrush. Switch off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Removing threads and hairs (dia. 04 - 06) Cut any threads or hairs that have become entangled on the roller brush with a pair of scissors (dia. 04). Then run the vacuum cleaner to vac‐ uum up the bits. For more obstinate tangles or block‐ ages inside the Turbobrush, the cover can be opened. Any large particles can then be easily removed. Using a coin undo the roller cover on both sides and then remove the co‐ ver (dia. 05). Remove any dirt in the brush com‐ partment interior and from the roller brush. Replace the cover and secure it (dia. 06).nl - Veiligheidsinstructies en waarschuwingen
