Only this will ensure that the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is maintained, giving the best possible cleaning results. ,Warning: The use of dustbags made from paper or paper-based materials, or dustbags with a cardboard collar, or dustbags that do not carry the "Original Miele" logo, can seriously damage the vacuum cleaner and invalidate the warranty. This makes the vacuum cleaner easier to carry or store. Purchasing new dustbags and filters Maintenance Original Miele dustbags and filters can be ordered from your Miele retailer, from Miele or online at: ,Warning: Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the electrical supply for maintenance work and for cleaning. Switch off at the wall socket and unplug it. The Miele filtration system consists of three filters which must be replaced from time to time to ensure that your vacuum cleaner performs efficiently. 54 Ordering the correct dustbags and filters Only use original Miele G/N dustbags with a blue collar. Using any other dustbags will damage the vacuum cleaner. Original Miele dustbags are identified by the "Original Miele" logo on the packaging or directly on the dustbag. en How the dustbag change indicator works The dustbag change indicator is set for normal household dust. This generally contains a mixture of: dust, hair, threads, carpet fluff, grit etc. An Air Clean exhaust filter and a dust compartment filter are supplied with every packet of Miele dustbags. If you wish to purchase original Miele exhaust filters separately, please quote the model number of your appliance when ordering to ensure you get the correct items. When to change the dustbag (dia. 28) Change the dustbag when the colour marker in the dustbag change indicator fills the display, or sooner if it is no longer effective (see possible reasons for this below). Miele dustbags are disposable and designed for single use only. Dispose of the dustbag when it is full. Do not attempt to reuse as suction would be reduced. Checking the dustbag change indicator ^ Attach the AllTeQ or AirTeQ floorhead. ^ Switch the vacuum cleaner on and select the maximum power setting. ^ Lift the floorhead off the floor a little. However, if the cleaner has been used to vacuum up fine dust, such as plaster, brick dust, cement or flour, the pores of the dustbag will become blocked very quickly. This affects the air permeability of the bag, and the marker will indicate that it is "full" even when it is not. If this happens you must still change the dustbag because suction power will be greatly reduced by blocked pores in the dustbag. If, on the other hand, a large amount of hair and carpet fluff 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. How to replace the dustbag (dia. 29 + 30) ^ Lift the release catch for the dust compartment lid and raise the lid as far as it will go (dia. 11). The dustbag has a closing flap which closes automatically when the dust compartment lid is raised to prevent any dust escaping. ^ Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the collar. ^ Fit the new dustbag into the blue holder as far as it will go. Leave it folded up when you take it out of the box. 55 en ^ It should be unfolded as far as possible in the dust compartment. When to change the HEPA AirClean 50 exhaust filter (dia. 15) ^ Close the dust compartment lid securely, making sure it clicks into position. Take care not to trap the dustbag when doing so. Replace the exhaust filter if the exhaust filter change indicator is completely red. This occurs after approx. 50 operating hours, or approx. one year of average use. The vacuum cleaner can still be used. However, the suction power will be reduced as will the effectiveness of the filter if it is not replaced in good time. Warning: The lid will not close without a dustbag in place. Do not use force. When to change the dust compartment filter (for motor protection) Replace this filter every time you start a new packet of dustbags. A dust compartment filter is supplied with every packet of Miele dustbags. How to change the dust compartment filter (dia. 31) ^ Open the dust compartment lid. ^ Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the collar. ^ Open the blue filter frame and remove the old filter. Hold by the clean, unsoiled section to remove it. You can replace the HEPA AirClean 50 exhaust filter fitted in the vacuum cleaner with one of the other Miele exhaust filters if you wish (see "Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another"). How to change the HEPA AirClean 50 exhaust filter (dia. 32 + 33) Do not use more than one exhaust filter at a time. ^ Open the dust compartment lid. ^ Lift the filter and remove it. ^ Replace with a new dust compartment filter. ^ Replace with a new filter, and push it down into place. ^ Close the filter frame. ^ Press the exhaust filter change indicator ~ (dia. 13). ^ Fit the dustbag 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 dustbag when doing so. ^ After approx. 10 - 15 seconds a thin red stripe will appear in the left hand side of the strip (dia. 14). If you wish to use an Air Clean filter, see "Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another". ^ Close the dust compartment lid. 56 en Replacing one type of exhaust filter with another Do not use more than one exhaust filter at a time. You can replace the standard HEPA AirClean 50 filter c with either one of the following exhaust filters: a Air Clean b ActiveAirClean 50. When replacing the HEPA AirClean 50 filter with an Air Clean filter, please note (dia. 34) If you wish to replace the HEPA AirClean 50 filter c with an Air Clean filter a, then it is essential that you also fit the filter grille (See "Optional accessories"). Maintenance indicator with reset button (dia. 35) The indicator lights up after approx. 50 hours of operation, which is equivalent to about a year of average use. The level of soiling of the dust compartment filter and the exhaust filter must be checked at this point and if the filters are replaced, the indicator must be reset. To do this the vacuum cleaner must be switched on.
