Maintenance and care When to change the exhaust filter Depending on the model, your vacuum cleaner will use one of the following exhaust filters: a Air Clean Whenever you start a new box of Miele dustbags, you should change this exhaust filter. A new Air Clean exhaust filter is included in every box of Miele dustbags. b Active Air Clean (black) c Active HEPA (blue) These filters should be changed approximately once a year. You can make a note of the date directly on the exhaust filter. Be sure to have a replacement filter on hand. Exhaust filter change indicator Certain models are equipped with an indicator (reset button), to show you when to change the Active Air Clean b or Active HEPA c filter. The indicator will turn red after approximately 50 hours of operation, which is equivalent to about one year of average use. Once the indicator light comes on, you can still continue to use the vacuum cleaner. However, the filter performance and suction power will be reduced. If an Air Clean filter is being used, the filter change indicator can be disregarded but should be reset when it does light. The indicator goes out when the reset button is pressed. 26
