Use
Do not use on people or on
animals.
Do not use outdoors or on wet
surfaces. Only dry surfaces should
be vacuumed.
Use only as described in this
manual. Use only Miele
recommended accessories.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Important
Safety Instructions. This appliance is
intended strictly for household use only.
Under absolutely no circumstances
should this vacuum cleaner be
used to arrest, retain and/or contain the
anthrax virus or any other hazardous
chemical or biological particles. While
Miele’s HEPA filter is certified to retain
micro-particles, once any biohazardous
material is introduced into the vacuum,
the entire vacuum cleaner unit, floor
tools, wand, and hose become
contaminated, rendering them all a
biohazard. Thereafter, this
contaminated appliance and the entire
environment would require the attention
of the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) to employ biohazard
cleanup procedures.
Child safety
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near
children.
Daily use
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.
The suction hose and the
telescopic wand contain electrical
wires. Do not use the vacuum cleaner if
these parts are damaged, cut or
punctured. Danger of electric shock!
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
unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on
stairs.
