Opening the air inlet valve (Figs. 28 + 29)

(depending on model)

It is easy to reduce the suction power for a short time, e.g., to prevent rugs or other objects being sucked into the vacuum cleaner.

• Open the air inlet valve on the handle far enough to reduce the suction power. This reduces the suction on the respective nozzle used.

During vacuuming

• When vacuuming, pull the vacuum cleaner behind you on its wheels. You can stand it upright for vacuuming stairs and curtains, etc.

Illuminating the work area (Fig. 32)

(for models with the LED handle)

Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with an LED on the handle to illuminate the work area.

• Slot the floorhead downwards into one of the parking attachments on either side of the vacuum cleaner (the parking attachments cannot be used with Electrobrushes SEB 228 and SEB 236).

This makes the vacuum cleaner easier to carry or store.

Maintenance

The Miele filtration system consists of three components:

– Original Miele FilterBag

– Motor protection filter

– Original Miele exhaust filter

These will need to be replaced from time to time to ensure that your vacuum cleaner performs efficiently.

We recommend only using genuine FilterBags, filters, and accessories with the "Original Miele" logo on them. This will ensure that the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is maintained, giving the best possible cleaning results. FilterBags with the "Original Miele" logo on them are not made from paper or paper-based materials and nor do they have a cardboard collar. This is why our FilterBags are particularly long-lasting and reliable. Please note that appliance faults and damage originating from the use of accessories which do not carry the "Original Miele" logo will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.

Purchasing new FilterBags and filters

Original Miele FilterBags and filters are available from the Miele Webstore and your Miele dealer.

Ordering the correct FilterBags and filters

Only use original Miele GN FilterBags with a blue collar and original Miele filters. These are identified by the "ORIGINAL Miele" logo on the packaging.

An AirClean filter and a motor protection filter are supplied with every packet of Miele FilterBags. Original Miele exhaust filters can also be purchased separately from your Miele dealer or Miele Technical Service. Please quote the model number of your vacuum cleaner when ordering to make sure you get the correct filter. You can also order all accessories via the Miele Webstore.

When to change the FilterBag (Fig. 35)

Change the FilterBag when the color marker in the FilterBag change indicator turns red, or sooner if it is no longer effective (see possible reasons for this below).

Miele FilterBags are disposable and designed for single use only. Dispose of the FilterBag when full. Do not attempt to reuse. Blocked pores in used FilterBags will reduce the suction power of the vacuum cleaner.

Checking the FilterBag change indicator

• Attach the floor brush to the vacuum cleaner (depending on the model).
• Switch the vacuum cleaner on and select the highest power setting.
• Lift the floor brush off the floor a little.

How the FilterBag change indicator works

The FilterBag change indicator is set for normal household dust. This generally contains a mixture of dust, hair, threads, carpet lint, grit, etc. However, if the cleaner has been used to vacuum up fine dust, such as plaster, brick dust, cement or flour, the pores of the FilterBag will become blocked very quickly. This affects the air permeability of the bag, and the marker will indicate that the bag is "full" even when it is not. If this happens you must still change the FilterBag because suction power will be greatly reduced by blocked pores in the FilterBag. If, on the other hand, a large amount of hair and carpet lint which typically contains a lot of air is vacuumed up, the indicator may fail to react even though the bag is full. You should still change it. Both these extremes can occur.

Replacing the FilterBag (Figs. 36 + 37)

• Press the release buttons at the side of the hose connector, and remove the hose from the suction opening (Fig. 02).
• Lift the release button for the dust compartment lid and raise the lid until it engages (Fig. 10). The FilterBag has a closing flap which closes automatically when the dust compartment lid is raised to prevent any dust escaping.
• Pull the FilterBag out by the grip on the collar.
• Insert the new FilterBag into the blue holder as far as it will go. Leave it folded up when you take it out of the box.
• It should be unfolded as far as possible in the dust compartment.
• Close the dust compartment lid securely, making sure it clicks into position. Take care not to trap the FilterBag when doing so.
• Insert the hose connector into the suction socket on the vacuum cleaner until it clicks into position. To do this, line up the guides on the two pieces (Fig. 01).

When to change the dust compartment filter

Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of FilterBags. A dust compartment filter is supplied with every packet of Miele FilterBags.

Changing the dust compartment filter (Fig. 38)

• Open the dust compartment lid.
• Pull the FilterBag out by the grip on the collar.
• Open the blue filter frame fully and remove the old filter. Hold by the clean, unsoiled section to remove it.
• Replace with a new dust compartment filter (for motor protection).
• Close the filter frame.
• Insert the FilterBag into the blue holder as far as it will go.
• Close the dust compartment lid securely, making sure it clicks into position. Take care not to trap the FilterBag when doing so.

When to replace the exhaust filter

Depending on the model, your vacuum cleaner will come with one of the following exhaust filters (Fig. 09) as standard:

a. AirClean Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of Miele FilterBags. An AirClean exhaust filter is supplied with every packet of Miele FilterBags.
