Operating and Installation Instructions

,
The use of FilterBags made of
paper or a similar material, or
FilterBags with a cardboard
retaining plate can lead to serious
damage to the vacuum cleaner and
possibly voiding the warranty, just
as with the use of filter bags without
the "Original Miele" logo.
Purchasing new FilterBags and filters
Original Miele FilterBags and filters can
be purchased from an authorized Miele
vacuum dealer or by visiting the Miele
store at http://store.miele.com.
Which FilterBags and filters are the
right ones?
This vacuum cleaner uses Original
Miele FilterBags Type U and Original
Miele filters, the "Original Miele" Logo
will appear on the packaging or directly
on the FilterBag.
An "AirClean" exhaust filter and a dust
compartment filter are supplied with
every box of Miele filter bags.
If you would like to purchase additional
Miele filters separately, contact your
vacuum dealer or Miele, please quote
the model number of your Miele
vacuum cleaner to ensure correct parts
are ordered. These parts are also
available to order from the online Miele
store.
The exhaust filter supplied with the
vacuum cleaner can be exchanged
with another type of Original Miele filter
(see "Exchanging exhaust filters").
When to change the FilterBag
(see fig. 23)
Change the FilterBag when the colored
marker in the airflow indicator fills the
display.
Miele FilterBags are disposable and
made to be used only once. Do not
attempt to reuse.
Check the airflow indicator
^ Place the body of the vacuum
cleaner into the full upright position.
^ Use the On/Off button (I / O)onthe
handle to switch the vacuum cleaner
on, then select the highest suction
setting.
^ Tip the vacuum cleaner until you can
read the color marker in the indicator
window. The electrobrush will be
lifted up at the front.
If the color marker completely fills the
indicator window, the FilterBag needs
to be changed.
How the airflow indicator works
The airflow indicator is designed to
show when the bag is full of common
household dust. It also measures the
amount of air flow through the FilterBag.
Normal household dust is a mixture of
dust, hair, carpet fluff, threads, etc.
