
When vacuuming, in particular fine dust, e.g. sawdust,
sand, plaster, flour, talcum powder etc., electrostatic
charges build up naturally. Under certain conditions these
charges will be released. To avoid the unpleasant effects of
these discharges, a metal inlay has been incorporated into
the underside of the handle. Please make sure that you
keep your hand in constant contact with this metal strip
during vacuuming. If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with an
Eco Comfort handle, make sure you hold it by the bowed
section as this is where this metal strip is incorporated.

Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorised
service technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons can cause considerable danger to users.
Cleaning

When emptying any vacuum cleaner it is difficult to
avoid exposure to dust. To minimize this risk, please en-
sure that you encase the dust container in a large bag to
empty it and close the bag as tightly as possible around
the container. Remove the container and close the bag as
tightly and quickly as possible and dispose of this immedi-
ately. It is advisable to wear disposable gloves and a face
mask while emptying the cleaner. If at all possible, ask a
non allergy sufferer to empty the dust container if required.

Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner or any accessories
supplied with it in water.

Clean the vacuum cleaner and accessories only with a
dry cloth or slightly damp cloth. Exception:
