Miele S 500 - Manual (Page 25)

Replacing the dustbag
^ Open the dust compartment lid.
^ Grasp the collar by the two finger
holes and pull it out from the dustbag
holder.
The dustbag has a flap which closes
automatically when the dustbag is
removed to prevent any dust from
escaping.
^ Dispose the dustbag with the normal
household waste.
^ Insert the new dustbag as far as it will
go into the dustbag holder. Do not
unfold the dustbag when taking it out
of the box.
^ Unfold the dustbag in the dust
compartment.
^ Close the dust compartment lid until
it clicks into place. Take care not to
jam the dustbag in the lid.
,
An empty-operation-barrier
blocks the dust compartment lid
from closing if no dustbag is
inserted or if it is not inserted all the
way. Do not force it closed.
