Miele S 658 Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
Using accessories
To avoid the risk of injury when
vacuuming with a Miele Electro- or
Turbobrush do not touch the rotating
roller brush.
The Miele Electrobrush is a motor
driven accessory appliance for use
only with Miele vacuum cleaners. The
cleaner must not be used with an
electrobrush produced by another man
-
ufacturer.
It is not advisable to vacuum di
-
rectly with the handle, i.e. without
an accessory attached as the rim could
get damaged and you could hurt your-
self on sharp edges.
Miele vacuum cleaner bags are
disposable and intended to be
used only once. Do not attempt to
re-use. Blocked pores reduce the effi-
ciency of the cleaner.
Use only genuine Miele dustbags,
filters and accessories. This en-
sures optimum performance of the vac
-
uum cleaner throughout its life.
Cleaning, maintenance and re
-
pairs
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the mains supply for
maintenance work and for cleaning.
Switch off at the wall socket and re
-
move the plug. Pull on the plug and not
the cable.
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get
wet. Clean only with a dry cloth or
slightly damp cloth when disconnected
from the mains supply. If moisture gets
into the appliance there is the risk of an
electric shock.
The electro-suction hose and the
electro-telescopic tube contain
electrical wires. The plug connectors
must not come in contact with water.
These items may only be cleaned with
a dry cloth, no moisture must touch
them. Danger of electric shock.
Repairs may only be carried out by
a suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with national and
local safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for un-
authorised work.
If the cable is damaged it should
be replaced together with a com-
plete cable rewind by a Miele service
technician.
