national safety requirements. Improper use can lead to
personal injury and damage to property.
Please read the operating instructions before using the

information on the safety, use, and maintenance of the
vacuum cleaner. This prevents both personal injury and
damage to the appliance.
Miele expressly and strongly advises that you read and
follow the instructions in the “Installation and connec-
tion” chapter as well as the IMPORTANT SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused
by non-compliance with these instructions.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and
pass them on to any future user.
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the power
supply when you have finished using it, before changing
any accessories, as well as for maintenance work, clean-
ing, and troubleshooting. Use the On/Off switch on the

bilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, who are un-

Safety with children
Children must be kept away from the vacuum cleaner
unless they are constantly supervised.
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy.
Close attention is necessary when used near children.
Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrap-
pings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the
reach of children.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
Check the voltage rating of the vacuum cleaner before
connecting the power cord to an electrical outlet. Your
power source should correspond with the voltage rating
plate located on the underside of the vacuum. Use only
household AC outlets. Never use DC power sources. If you
are not sure of your home’s voltage supply, consult a qual-
ified electrician. Connecting the vacuum cleaner to a
higher voltage than indicated in these instructions may re-
sult in damage to the vacuum cleaner or injury.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper out-
let. Do not alter the plug in any way.

161
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.
Compare the connection data on the data plate of the
charger (voltage and frequency) with that of the electricity
supply. This data must match exactly. Without modifica-
tions, the charger is suitable for 50Hz and 60Hz.
The electrical outlet must be rated at 15Amps.
Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories,
check for any visible signs of damage. Do not use a dam-
aged appliance.
The Miele Multi Floor XXL Electrobrush and the Miele
Electro Compact handheld brush (varies according to the
model) are additional motor-driven devices designed spe-
cially for this Miele vacuum cleaner. For safety reasons, the
vacuum cleaner must not be used with a different
MieleElectrobrush/handheld brush or an electrobrush/
handheld brush produced by another manufacturer.
en-US - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
162
Before and during use, make sure that no coarse dirt or
debris is/gets trapped in the bottom of the
MultiFloorXXLElectrobrush or in the bottom of the Elec-
troCompacthandheldbrush (supplied depending on
model).
Store the vacuum cleaner and all accessories at an am-
bient temperature between 32°F and 113°F (0°C and
45°C).
Repairs should only be performed by an authorized ser-
vice agent in accordance with national and local safety
regulations. Unauthorized repairs could cause injury or ma-
chine damage. Otherwise the warranty may be void.
Repairs should only be carried out by a Miele-authorized
service technician. Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons can cause considerable danger to users.
Proper use
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust con-
tainer, pre-filter, and fine dust filter fitted.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug.
If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped,
damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to
a service center.

any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and any-
thing that may reduce air flow.

pooed rugs or carpets are completely dry before attempt-
ing to vacuum.
