When to replace the exhaust filter
Depending on model, your vacuum
cleaner will be fitted as standard with
one of the following exhaust filters (dia.
09).
a
AirClean
Replace this filter every time you start a
new packet of Miele dustbags. An
AirClean exhaust filter is supplied with
every packet of Miele dustbags.
b
Active AirClean 50 (black)
c
AirClean Plus 50 (light blue)
d
HEPA AirClean 50 (white)
Replace if the display for the exhaust fil-
ter change indicator is completely filled
with red (dia. 14). This occurs after ap-
prox. 50 hours of operation which is
equivalent to about a 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.
