Filter
Top Products
The filter change indicator (see fig.
26) is designed for the changing
cycle of the Active Air Clean and
Active HEPA filters.
If you use an Air Clean exhaust filter
instead, lighting of the filter change
indicator and reset button can be
disregarded as the exhaust filter
should simply be replaced
whenever a new box of Miele filter
bags is opened. The indicator lights
turn off when the reset button is
pressed.
Cleaning and care
,
Turn off the vacuum and unplug
it from the outlet before performing
any maintenance work.

accessory or a damp cloth.
Vacuum cleaner and accessories

accessories can be cleaned with a
damp cloth or a cleaner suitable for
plastics.
,
Do not use abrasive, oil-based,
glass or all purpose cleaners!
Dust compartment
The dust compartment can, if
necessary, be cleaned using a dry
cloth, dusting brush or a second
vacuum to remove any dust.
Monitor the filter bag change indicator
and inspect all filters regularly. Clean or
replace them when necessary
according to these Operating
Instructions.

Frequently asked questions
The vacuum cleaner shuts off
automatically.
A warning light § comes on to
indicate overheating (see fig. 31).
A temperature sensor will turn off the
vacuum cleaner if it becomes too warm.
This is indicated by a thermal
protection indicator § on the display
panel of the vacuum.
This problem can occur if, for example,
an object is blocking the suction hose
or the filter bag pores have become
clogged with fine dust. The cause
could also be a heavily soiled exhaust
or dust compartment filter. If this
happens, turn off the vacuum cleaner
(press the On/Off foot switch s) and
unplug the power plug from the
electrical outlet.
Once the cause has been addressed,
allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for
approx. 20 - 30 minutes before
resuming vacuuming.
