Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near
children.
Do not pull or carry by the cord,
use the cord as a handle, close a
door on the cord, or pull the cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not
run the appliance over the cord. Keep
the cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug by pulling on the
cord. To unplug, grasp the plug,
not the cord.
Do not handle the plug or vacuum
with wet hands.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers
and all parts of the body away from
openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before unplug-
ging.
Use extra care when cleaning on
stairs.
Floor attachments, accessories
and wands must not be used at
head level to avoid injury to eyes and
ears.
Do not use to pick up flammable or
combustible liquids, such as
gasoline, or use in areas where they
may be present.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to
pick up liquids, as this could impair
the electrical safety of the vacuum
cleaner. Wait for freshly shampooed
carpets to dry.
Do not pick up anything that is
burning or smoking, such as
cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers can conduct electricity.
Always turn off the vacuum before
connecting or disconnecting the
Electrobrush, Turbobrush or an
accessory.
Do not use without dustbag and
filters in place.
Do not turn on or attempt to operate the
vacuum cleaner unless a dustbag, dust
compartment filter and exhaust filter are
in place. Only use genuine Miele
double-layer dustbags and filters (see
“Vacuum care” for instructions on how
to insert the dustbag and filters.) If a
dustbag has not been inserted, the
dust compartment cover will not close.
Do not use force!
To aid the vacuum in dissipating
heat during extended operation
(longer than 1 hour), the power cord
should be unwound from the cable reel
at least two thirds of the way.
A temperature limiter automatically
switches off the vacuum cleaner if
it gets too hot, see “Frequently asked
questions.”
On the underside of the vacuum
hand piece is a metal insert
designed to absorb electrostatic
charge. Please make certain that your
hand remains around this metal insert.
