Operating Instructions Canister Vacuum Cleaner
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS AP- PLIANCE
This vacuum cleaner complies with current safety requirements. Inappropriate
use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the vacuum cleaner, please read
the operating instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They
contain important information on its safety, operation, and maintenance.
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 and cleaning. Turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug it.
Correct use
- This vacuum cleaner is intended for cleaning flooring in domestic households and similar residential environments.
- This vacuum cleaner can be used for all normal cleaning of carpets, rugs, and hard flooring.
- This vacuum cleaner is not intended for outdoor use.
- The vacuum cleaner must only be used to vacuum dry floor surfaces. Do not use it on people and animals. Any other usage, modification, or alteration is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.
- Persons which lack physical, sensory or mental abilities or experience with the machine should not use it without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.
Safety with children
- Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children.
- Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used near 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 qualified electrician. Connecting the vacuum cleaner to a higher voltage than indicated in these instructions may result 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 outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
Technical safety
- Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories, check for any visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
- Ensure that the connection data on the data plate of the vacuum cleaner (voltage and frequency) match the household power supply. Without modifications, the vacuum cleaner is suited for 50Hz or 60Hz.
- The electrical outlet must be fitted with a 15 A fuse.
- Reliable and safe operation of this vacuum cleaner can only be assured if it has been connected to the electricity supply.
- Repairs should only be performed by an authorized service agent in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Unauthorized repairs could cause injury or machine damage. Otherwise the warranty may be void.
- Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the power cord, and be careful not to damage the cord when withdrawing the plug from the socket. Keep the cord away from sharp edges and do not let it get pinched, for example, under a door. Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cord. This could damage the cord, plug or socket. The appliance must not be used if any of these have suffered damage.
- Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the power cord is damaged. If the power cord is damaged it must be replaced together with the cord reel. For safety reasons this must only be done by Miele Technical Service or a Miele authorized service technician.
- 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.
- Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as intended by the manufacturer.
Cleaning
- Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner or any accessories supplied with it in water.
- Clean only with a dry cloth or slightly damp cloth when disconnected from the power supply. Exception:
– Dust container / fine dust container: only clean these parts with water and
a small amount of liquid dish soap, then dry carefully.
– Fine dust filter: do not clean the inside of the fine dust filter. Rinse the
outside under running cold water. Do not use soap. Do not use any sharp or
pointed objects and do not brush the fine dust filter. After cleaning, leave
the fine dust filter to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before placing it back
in the fine dust container.
– Pre-filter / filter frame: clean these parts under running cold water. Do
not use soap. Do not use any sharp or pointed objects. Dry these parts
carefully after cleaning.
Proper use
- Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust container, pre-filter, fine dust container and fine dust filter fitted.
- Do not vacuum up anything which has been burning or smoking, e.g., cigarettes, ashes or hot ash, 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 carpets are completely dry before attempt- ing to vacuum.
- Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum toner dust. Toner, such as that used in printers and photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
- Do not vacuum up any flammable or combustible liquids or gases and do not vacuum in areas where such sub- stances are stored.
- Do not vacuum at head height and do not let the suction get anywhere near a person’s head.
Accessories
- To avoid the risk of injury when vacuuming with a Miele turbobrush, do not touch the rotating roller brush.
- It is not advisable to vacuum directly with the handle, i.e., without an accessory attached, as the rim could get damaged and you could hurt yourself on sharp edges.
- Only use accessories with the “ORIGINAL Miele” logo on them. Otherwise the manufacturer cannot guarantee the safety of the product.

Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The cardboard box and packing materials protect the appliance during shipping.
They have been designed to be biodegradable and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept
out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!
Disposal of your old appliance
Before disposing of your old appliance, remove the fine dust filter and
dispose of it with your household waste. Electrical and electronic appliances
contain valuable materials. They also contain certain substances, compounds
and components which are essential for the proper functioning and safe use of
the equipment. Handling these materials improperly by disposing of them in
your household waste can be harmful to your health and the environment.
Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with your regular
household waste.
Instead, use the official collection and disposal points provided by local
authorities, dealers or Miele, in order to dispose of and recycle electrical
and electronic appliances. You are legally responsible for deleting any
personal data on the old appliance you wish to dispose of. Please ensure that
your old appliance is kept away from children until removal.

Connecting the suction hose to the handle (Fig. 03)
- Insert the suction hose into the handle until it clicks into position.
Connecting the handle to the wand (Fig. 04)
- Insert the handle into the wand until it clicks into position. To do this, line up the guides on the two pieces.
- To release the handle from the wand, press the release button and pull the handle out of the wand, twisting it slightly as you do so.
Adjusting the telescopic wand (Fig. 05)
One part of the telescopic wand is fitted inside the other so that the wand
can be adjusted to suit your preferred height for comfortable vacuuming.
- Hold the release mechanism and adjust the telescopic wand to the required length.
Connecting the telescopic wand to the floorhead/floorbrush (Fig. 06)
(included as standard depending on model)
- Push the telescopic wand into the suction nozzle and turn it clockwise or counter-clockwise until it clicks into position.
- To detach these parts from each other, press the release button and pull the telescopic wand out of the suction nozzle, twisting it slightly as you do so.
Adjusting the floorhead (Fig. 07 + 08)
(only for models with a reversible floorhead included in the standard version)
This vacuum cleaner can be used for the everyday cleaning of carpets, rugs and
hard flooring. Miele offers a range of other floorheads, brushes and
accessories for other types of flooring and special applications (see
“Optional accessories”).
Please always follow the flooring manufacturer’s cleaning and care
instructions.
Vacuum carpets and rugs with the brush retracted:
-
Press the foot switch
Clean hard flooring which is not susceptible to scratching, and flooring with gaps or deep crevices in it with the brush protruding: -
Press the foot switch .
If the suction power of the adjustable floorhead seems too high, reduce the suction until the floorhead is easier to maneuver (see “Use – Regulating the suction power”).
Using the accessories supplied (Fig. 09)
- Crevice nozzle For cleaning folds, crevices or corners.
- Upholstery nozzle For cleaning upholstery, mattresses, cushions, curtains, etc.
- Dusting brush with natural bristles, supplied loose (depending on model)
For cleaning base boards and as ornate, carved and particularly delicate objects. The head can be swiveled to the best angle.
The crevice nozzle and the upholstery nozzle are located in holders at the back of the vacuum cleaner. The standard versions of certain models include a turbobrush that is not illustrated. The turbobrush is supplied with its own set of operating instructions.
Dusting brush integrated in the Eco Comfort handle (Fig. 10)
Some models are equipped with an Eco Comfort handle. The dusting brush is
suitable for vacu- uming scratch-resistant surfaces such as keyboards and for
vacuuming up crumbs.
- Press the release button on the dusting brush and push the brush out until it clearly engages in position.
- When you have finished dusting press the release button and push the brush back into its original position until it clicks into place.
Reversible floorhead (Fig. 11)
(included as standard depending on model)
For general use and also for vacuuming the stairs.
For safety reasons when vacuuming stairs, it is best to start at the bottom of
the stairs and move upwards.
Floorbrush Parquet Twister with swiveling head (SBB 300-3) (included as
standard depending on model)
This brush is suitable for a variety of hard floor surfaces and has a swivel
joint enabling it to get into awkward corners.
Use
Power cord
Unwind the cord completely to aid the vacuum in dissipating heat. Do not pull
or carry by the cord, use the cord as a handle, close a door on the cord, or
pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run the appliance over the
cord. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not unplug by pulling the
cord. To unplug grasp the plug, not the cord. This appliance is equipped with
a power cord reel. Hold the plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow
plug to whip when rewinding.
Unwinding the cord (Fig. 12)
- Pull the cord out to the required length.
- Insert the plug into the outlet.
If vacuuming for longer than 30 minutes, the cord must be pulled out all the way. Danger of overheating and damage.
Rewinding the power cord (Fig. 13)
- Unplug the power cord from the socket.
- Step on the cord rewind foot switch.
The power cord will then retract itself into the vacuum cleaner.
If you do not want the cord to retract completely into the vacuum cleaner you
can deactivate this function. To do this, take hold of the end of the cord
while rewinding it and give it a short pull when you want the rewinding to
end.
Turning the vacuum cleaner on and off (Fig. 14)
- Press the On/Off foot control .
Selecting the suction power
The suction power can be adjusted to suit the type of flooring being cleaned.
Reducing the power lowers the amount of effort required to maneuver the floor
brush. The vacuum cleaner has symbols on the controls which indicate the type
of use the settings are suitable for.
Curtains, lightweight fabric
Deep pile carpets, rugs and runners
Low pile carpet and rugs
Hard flooring and heavily soiled carpets and rugs (also for cleaning
upholstery and mattresses with the upholstery nozzle)
Rotary dial (Fig. 15)
- Turn the rotary selector to the suction power setting you require.
Opening the air inlet valve (Fig. 16)
(not on models with the Eco Comfort handle)
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.
The floorhead will be easier to maneuver.
During vacuuming
- When vacuuming, pull the vacuum cleaner behind you on its wheels. You can stand it upright for vacuuming stairs and curtains, etc.
If you are vacuuming a large amount of dust at once, the ComfortClean selfcleaning function should be started manually either during a vacuuming pause or immediately afterward. This enables the vacuum cleaner to achieve the very best cleaning performance right away (see “Maintenance – Starting the ComfortClean self-cleaning function manually”).
Parking, transport, and storage
Park system for pauses during vacuuming (Fig. 17)
The park system allows you to conveniently park the suction wand and floorhead
during pauses.
- Slot the floorhead into the parking attachment on the vacuum cleaner.
If your vacuum cleaner is on a sloping surface, e.g., a ramp, retract the telescopic suction wand fully.
Park system for storage (Fig. 18)
Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the power supply when you have finished using it. Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
- Stand the vacuum cleaner upright.
- Retract the telescopic suction wand fully.
- Slot the floorhead down into the parking attachment on the vacuum cleaner. This makes the vacuum cleaner easier to carry or store.
For safety reasons, do not lift the vacuum cleaner using the dust container carrying handle.
Maintenance
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner for maintenance work and unplug the power cord from the wall socket.
Emptying the dust container (Fig. 19 – 24)
-
Empty the dust container before the dust has reached the max marking on the dust container.
-
Pull the dust container handle upward.
-
Remove the dust container upward.
The contents of the dust compartment can be disposed of with the normal household trash, providing it contains general household dust only. -
Hold the dust container close to the trash can so that as little dust billows out as possible.
-
Press the yellow release button on the bottom of the dust container.
The flap will open and the dust will fall out. -
Close the flap firmly. It should click into place.
-
Insert the dust container down into the vacuum cleaner so that it audibly clicks into place.
-
Push the handle down.
Cleaning the dust container
Clean the dust container as required.
- Clean the dust container using water and liquid dish soap.
- Dry the dust container carefully.
Cleaning the filter frame (Fig. 25 + 26)
A removable filter frame is located in the dust container. This should be cleaned if it is obviously dirty.
-
Place the emptied and open dust container on its front.
-
Release the filter frame and remove it.
-
Empty the filter frame and rinse it under cold running water.
Do not use detergent!
Do not use any sharp or pointed objects! Dry the filter frame carefully! -
Place the dry filter frame in the dust container so that it audibly clicks into place.
Cleaning the fine dust filter
The fine dust filter is equipped with a self-cleaning function. When a
specified degree of soiling is reached, the vacuum cleaner switches off
automatically for approx. 20 seconds and carries out a cleaning process. You
will hear this process running.
The ComfortClean button on the vacuum cleaner lights up yellow.
Starting the ComfortClean self-cleaning function manually (Fig. 27)
If you are vacuuming a large amount of dust at once, the ComfortClean selfcleaning function should be started manually either during a vacuuming pause or immediately afterward. This enables the vacuum cleaner to achieve the very best cleaning performance again right away.
- With the vacuum cleaner switched on, press the ComfortClean button for at least two seconds.
The vacuum cleaner is switched off automatically for approx. 20 seconds and a
cleaning process is carried out which results in operational noise. The
ComfortClean button on the vacuum cleaner lights up yellow. The vacuum cleaner
will then switch back on automatically and will operate with the previously
selected setting.
We also recommend emptying and cleaning the fine dust container once or twice
a year (see “Frequently asked questions – Cleaning the fine dust filter
manually”).
When to change the thread catchers?
(only possible for models with a reversible floorhead included as standard) The thread catchers on the suction inlet of the reversible floorhead can be re- placed. Check them from time to time and replace them if the pile has worn down.
How to replace the thread lifters (Fig. 28 + 29)
- Use a suitable screwdriver to remove the thread lifters from the slots.
- Install new thread lifters.
Replacement parts are available from your Miele dealer or through Miele Service.
Cleaning and care
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner before cleaning it and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Vacuum cleaner and accessories
The vacuum cleaner and all plastic accessories can be cleaned with a
commercially available cleaner suitable for plastic.
Follow the special cleaning instructions for the dust container and filter
frame in “Maintenance” and for the fine dust filter, the pre-filter, and the
fine dust container in “Frequently asked questions”.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, glass cleaning agents, allpurpose
cleaners, or oil-based conditioning agents.
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get wet. If moisture gets into the vacuum
cleaner, there is a risk of electric shock.
