en - Warning and Safety instructions
~
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains
supply when you have finished using it, before changing
over accessories, as well as for maintenance work and
cleaning. Switch the vacuum cleaner off at the wall socket
and unplug it.
~
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. Clean only with a
dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from
the mains supply.
~
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.
Correct use
~
To avoid the risk of damage, do not use the vacuum
cleaner without the dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter in place.
~
If the dustbag is not fitted correctly, the dust compartment
cover does not normally close. Do not force it.
~
Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or
is still glowing e.g. cigarettes, ashes or coal, whether
glowing or apparently extinguished.
~
Do not vacuum up any water, liquid or damp dirt. Wait
until any freshly cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor
coverings are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.
~
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner, such as that used in
printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
