en - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Technical safety
Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories,
check for any visible signs of damage. Do not use a dam-
aged appliance.
Compare the connection data on the data plate of the
vacuum cleaner (voltage and frequency) with that of the
electricity supply. This data must match exactly. Without
modifications, the vacuum cleaner is suited for 50 Hz or
60 Hz.
The electrical outlet must be rated at 15 Amps.
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous
power supply system or a power supply system that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply (e.g., island net-
works, back-up systems) is possible. A prerequisite for op-
eration is that the power supply system complies with na-
tional and local codes.
The function and operation of the protective measures pro-
vided in the domestic electrical installation and in this
Miele product must also be maintained in isolated opera-
tion or in operation that is not synchronized with the grid
power supply, or these measures must be replaced by
equivalent measures in the installation.
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.
