Miele S 2181 Operating Instructions Manual
~
While the vacuum cleaner is under
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by Miele. Otherwise the
guarantee will be invalidated.
~
Do not pull or carry the vacuum
cleaner by the cable and be careful not
to damage the cable when withdrawing
the plug from the socket. Keep the
cable away from sharp edges and do
not let it get squashed, for expample,
under a door.
Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over
the cable.
A damaged cable, plug or socket is a
safety hazard.
~
Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the
cable is damaged. If the cable is
damaged it must be replaced together
with a complete cable rewind. For
safety reasons this work must be done
by the Miele Service Department or a
Miele authorised service technician.
~
There is a metal inlay underneath
the handle which is designed to protect
the user from electrostatic discharges.
Please make sure that you keep your
hand in constant contact with this metal
strip during vacuuming.
~
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the mains supply when
you have finished using it, as well as for
maintenance work and cleaning. Switch
off at the wall socket and unplug it.
~
Do not let the vacuum cleaner get
wet. Clean only with a dry cloth or
slightly damp cloth when disconnected
from the mains supply.
Warning and Safety instructions
~
Repairs should only be carried out
by a Miele authorised service
technician. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for unauthorised work.
Correct use
~
Floor attachments, accessories and
tubes must not be used at head level to
avoid the risk of injury, e.g. to eyes and
ears.
~
To avoid the risk of damage, do not
use the vacuum cleaner without the
dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter in place.
~
If the dustbag is not fitted correctly,
the dust compartment cover does not
normally close. Do not force it.
~
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 vacuum up any water, liquid
or damp dirt. Wait until any freshly
cleaned or shampooed carpets or floor
coverings are completely dry before
attempting to vacuum.
~
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
~
Do not vacuum up any inflammable
or combustible liquids or gases and do
not vacuum in areas where such
substances are stored.
