Maintenance and care
,Turn off and unplug the vacuum
cleaner before performing any
maintenance work.
The Miele filter system consists of the
following three components.
Filter bag
Exhaust filter
Dust compartment filter
Each of these components must be
changed periodically to maintain the
vacuum cleaner’s efficiency.
Only use Miele filter bags, filters and
accessories with the "Original Miele"
logo. Only then can the suction
power of the vacuum cleaner reach
its optimum potential creating the
best possible cleaning results.
13
en
,
The use of filter bags made of
paper or a similar material, or filter
bags 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 filter bags and filters
Original Miele filter bags and filters can
be purchased from an authorized Miele
vacuum dealer or by visiting the Miele
online store.
Which filter bags and filters are the
right ones?
This vacuum cleaner uses Original
Miele filter bags Type F/J/M and an
Original Miele filters, the "Original Miele"
Logo will appear on the packaging or
directly on the filter bag.
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 filter bag
(see fig. 25)
Change the filter bag when the colored
marker in the airflow indicator
completely fills the display in red.
Filter bags are disposable articles
and made to be used only once.
Dispose of full filter bags. Do not
attempt to reuse.
Clogged pores reduce the suction
power of the vacuum cleaner.
Check the airflow indicator
^ Attach the floor brush AllTeQ
(depending on model) to the vacuum
cleaner. All other suction tools can
affect the function of the airflow
indicator.
^
Use the On/ Off foot switch s to
switch the vacuum cleaner on, then
select the highest suction setting.
^
Slightly lift the floor brush AllTeQ from
the floor. If the color marker
completely fills the indicator window,
the filter bag 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 and measures the
amount of air flow through the filter bag.
Normal household dust is a mixture of
dust, hair, carpet fluff, threads, sand,
etc.
en
14
However, if fine dust, such as drill dust,
sand, plaster or flour is vacuumed, the
pores of the filter bag may become
blocked. The marker will indicate that
the bag is "full" even when it is not. The
filter bag should be changed as the
suction power is greatly reduced.
If the bag is bulging with pet fur, hair,
carpet fluff, etc. the indicator may not
register "full". This is because the air
flow of the filter bag may still be high
enough not to activate the marker to
show maximum. The filter bag should
still be changed.
How to change the filter bag
(see fig. 26 + 27)
^ Open the dust compartment lid
(see fig. 9).
The filter bag has a flap that automatically
closes to prevent dust from escaping
when the bag is removed.
^ Grasp the finger grip and pull the
filter bag out of the holder.
^
Insert the new filter bag into the hol
-
der as far as it will go. Note: Do NOT
unfold the filter bag when you first re
-
move it from the box.
^
Wait until you have inserted the filter
bag into the compartment before
unfolding it.
^
Now close the dust compartment lid
until it clicks into place, taking care
not to catch the filter bag in the lid.
,
If you do not insert a replacement
filter bag, the dust compartment lid is
designed not to close. Do not use
force!
When should I change the dust
compartment filter?
Whenever you start a new box of Miele
filter bag filters, you should change the
dust compartment filter. A new dust
compartment filter is included in every
box of Miele filter bags.
Replacing the dust compartment
filter (see fig. 28)
^
Open the dust compartment lid.
^
Open the filter frame, remove the old
filter and replace with a new one.

Frequently asked questions
The vacuum cleaner shuts off
automatically.
A temperature sensor will turn off the
vacuum cleaner if it becomes too warm.
This problem can occur if, for example,
an object is blocking the suction hose
or the filter bag pores have become
clogged with fine dust. The cause
could also be a heavily soiled exhaust
or dust compartment filter. If this
happens, turn off the vacuum cleaner
(press the On/Off foot switch s) and
unplug the power plug from the
electrical outlet.
Once the cause has been addressed,
allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for
approx. 20 - 30 minutes before
resuming vacuuming.
