Miele S 300i - S 318i Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
Do not use without dustbag and
filters in place. Do not turn on or
attempt to operate the vacuum cleaner
unless the dustbag, dust compartment
filter and exhaust filter are in place.
Only use genuine Miele double-layer
dustbags and filters (see "Maintenance
and care" for instructions on how to
insert the dustbag and filters). If a
dustbag has not been inserted
properly, 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
handpiece is a metal insert
designed to absorb electrostatic
charge. Please make certain that your
hand remains around this metal insert.
Accessory use
The Miele Electrobrush is a motor
driven accessory for use only with
Miele vacuum cleaners. It must not be
used with vacuum cleaners produced
by another manufacturer.
When vacuuming with the Miele
Electrobrush or Turbobrush, do not
touch the rotating brush.
When using the vacuum with an
Electrobrush and current-carrying
hose use caution. The hose contains
electrical wires. Do not use if damaged,
cut or punctured. Avoid picking up
sharp objects.
The socket on the vacuum cleaner
(depending on model) must only
be used with the Miele Electrobrush
specified for use with this appliance.
Only use attachments specified by
Miele. Do not use the blower to
operate paint sprayers or similar
devices that emit volatile or toxic
vapors.
Monitor the dustbag change
indicator and inspect all filters
regularly. To ensure efficient suction,
clean or replace them when necessary
according to the operating instructions.
To guarantee safety, only use genuine
Miele dustbags, filters and accessories.
Miele vacuum cleaner bags are
disposable and are only to be used
once. Do not attempt to reuse.
Do not use the vacuum without an
accessory attached. The rim could
be damaged and injuries could result
from sharp edges.
