how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the con-
sequences of incorrect operation.

Technical safety
The vacuum cleaner operates at 25.2V.
It is classified as a class III appliance.
This appliance is supplied by a safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
power source where the voltage is low enough to protect users from
the risk of electrical shock. A Class II charger is used for supplying
power to charge the vacuum cleaner.
Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories, check for
any visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
Compare the connection data on the data plate of the charger
(voltage and frequency) with that of the mains electricity supply. This
data must match exactly. Without modifications, the charger is suit-
able for 50Hz and 60Hz.
The mains electrical plug must be fitted with an appropriate fuse.
The MieleMultiFloorXXLElectrobrush and the MieleElec-
troCompacthandheldbrush (varies according to the model) are ad-
ditional motor-driven devices designed specially for this Miele va-
cuum cleaner. For safety reasons, the vacuum cleaner must not be
used with a different MieleElectrobrush/handheld brush or an Elec-
trobrush/handheld brush produced by another manufacturer.
Store the vacuum cleaner at an ambient temperature between
0°C and 45°C.
While the vacuum cleaner is under warranty, repairs should only
be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise
the warranty will be invalidated.
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.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only
be replaced with genuine Miele replacement parts.
Cleaning
Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner or any accessories supplied
with it in water.
The Electrobrush/handheld brush (depending on the model), the
PowerUnit, the suction tube, the body and the Comfort handle con-
tain electrical wires. The plug connectors must not come into con-
tact with water. Danger of electric shock. They should only be
cleaned with a dry cloth.
Clean the vacuum cleaner and accessories only with a dry or
slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the power supply. Ex-
ception:
– Dust container: empty the dust container and remove the pre-fil-
ter. Clean the dust container using water and mild washing-up li-
quid only. Then dry the dust container carefully. Replace the pre-
filter in the dust container.
Correct use
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust container, pre-fil-
ter, fine dust filter and motor protection filter fitted.
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 use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum up any water, liquid or
damp dirt. Wait until any freshly cleaned or shampooed rugs or car-
pets are completely dry before attempting to vacuum.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust. Toner, such
as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
