Miele S 6000 - Manual (Page 12)

Unwinding (see fig. 13)
^ Hold the plug and pull out the power
cord.
,
To reduce the risk of electric
shock, the vacuum has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not alter the
plug in any way.
Danger of overheating and damage.
Rewinding (see fig. 14)
^ Unplug the vacuum from the outlet.
^ Press the rewind switch - the power
cord will rewind automatically. Hold
the plug so that it does not whip
around when rewinding.
Turning the vacuum on and off
(see fig. 15)
^ Press the On/Off s button.
While vacuuming (see fig. 16 + 17)
^ The vacuum cleaner can also stand
on its end for vacuuming stairs,
drapes etc.
,
To prevent static electricity your
hand must touch the metal inlay on
the underside of the vacuum hand
piece. Be certain to continuously
touch this inlay when vacuuming
fine dust, flour or sawdust as these
materials are more likely to create a
static discharge. To further prevent
static discharge, pull the vacuum
along by the hose with one hand
while continuing to hold the hand
piece in the other hand.
Rotary dial (see fig. 18)
^ Turn the rotary dial to the desired
suction power setting.

pushed easier.
