Blocked pores reduce the suction
power of the vacuum cleaner.

head to the vacuum cleaner.
Switch the vacuum cleaner on and se-
lect the highest power setting.

How the vacuum cleaner bag
timestrip® filter change indicator
works
The filter change indicator is set for nor-
mal household dust. This generally con-
tains a mixture of dust, hair, threads,
carpet fluff, grit, etc.
However, if the vacuum cleaner has
been used to vacuum up fine dust, such
as drilling dust, sand, plaster dust or
flour, the pores of the vacuum cleaner
bag will become blocked very quickly.
The indicator will indicate that the va-
cuum cleaner bag is "full" even when it
is not. The vacuum cleaner bag must be
replaced if this is the case.
If, on the other hand, you vacuum up a
significant amount of hair, carpet lint,
etc., the vacuum cleaner bag will be full
to bursting before the indicator reacts.
Removing the dustbag (Fig. 35)
Press the release catches at the side
of the hose connector and pull the
hose out of the suction opening (Fig.
02).
Lift the release catch for the dust
compartment lid and raise the lid as
far as it will go (Fig. 09).

The dustbag has a flap which closes
automatically when the dust compart-
ment lid is raised to prevent any dust
escaping.
Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the
collar.
Fitting a dustbag (Fig. 36)
Fit the new dustbag into the holder
until it clicks into position. Leave the
dustbag folded up when you take it
out of the box.
Close the dust compartment lid se-
curely, making sure it clicks into posi-
tion. Take care not to trap the dustbag
when doing so.
A safety device prevents the lid closing
without a dustbag in place.
Do not force it.
Insert the hose connector into the
suction opening on the vacuum
cleaner until it clicks into position. To
do this, line up the guides on the two
pieces (Fig. 01).
Replacing the motor protection filter
(Fig. 37)
Replace the motor protection filter
whenever you start a new packet of
dustbags.
Every packet of original Miele dustbags
contains a motor protection filter. Mul-
tipacks contain 4 motor protection fil-
ters.
Open the dust compartment lid (Fig.
09).
Pull the dustbag out by the grip on the
collar (Fig. 35).
Lift up the filter frame until it clicks
and remove the old motor protection
filter. Hold the filter by the clean, un-
soiled section to remove it (Fig. 37).
