a AirClean
Replace this filter every time you start a
new packet of Miele dustbags. Every
packet of original Miele dustbags con-
tains one AirClean exhaust filter. Mul-
tipacks contain 4 AirClean filters.
b AirClean Plus 50 (light blue)
Replace this filter after approx. one
year. Make a note of the date on the ex-
haust filter.
c Silence AirClean 50 (grey)
d Active AirClean 50 (black)
e HEPA AirClean 50 (white)
Replace these filters when the
timestrip® filter change indicator is
completely red (Fig. 13). The indicator
lights up after approximately 50 hours
of operation, which is equivalent to
about a year of average use. You can
continue vacuuming when the light
comes on. However, the suction power
will be reduced as will the effectiveness
of the filter if it is not replaced in good
time.
Replacing the AirClean exhaust
filter (Fig. 38 + 39)
Do not use more than one exhaust
filter at a time.
 Open the dust compartment lid (Fig.
09).
 Press the release catch on the filter
grille and open the grille until it clicks
(Fig. 38).
 Grasp the used AirClean exhaust filter
by one of the clean, unsoiled sections
and take it out (Fig. 38).
 Replace it with a new AirClean ex-
haust filter (Fig. 39).

Damage due to contamination in
the dust compartment
Large quantities of dust may enter
the dust compartment and damage
components if the dustbag has not
clicked into position.
Before closing the dust compartment
lid, make sure that the dustbag has
been inserted so that it has clicked
into position.
 Close the dust compartment lid se-
curely, making sure it clicks into posi-
tion. Take care not to trap the dust-
bag when doing so.
