Miele S8 UniQ - Manual (Page 39)

How to change the dust
compartment filter (dia. 27)
^ Open the dust compartment lid.
^ Pull the dustbag out by the grip on
the collar.
^ Open the blue filter frame and
remove the old filter. Hold by the
clean, unsoiled section to remove it.
^ Replace with a new dust
compartment filter.
^ Close the filter frame.
^ Fit the dustbag into the blue holder
as far as it will go.
^ Close the dust compartment lid
securely, making sure it clicks into
position. Take care not to trap the
dustbag when doing so.
When to change the Active HEPA
exhaust filter (dia. 28)
Always change the Active HEPA filter
when the exhaust filter indicator lights
up. It is designed to light up after
approx. 50 hours of operation which is
equivalent to about a year of average
use. It should be replaced sooner if it is
obviously soiled or no longer effective.
However, the suction power will be
reduced as will the effectiveness of the
filter if it is not replaced in good time.
You can replace the Active HEPA
exhaust filter fitted in the vacuum
cleaner with one of the other Miele
exhaust filters if you wish (see
"Replacing one type of exhaust filter
with another").
How to change the Active HEPA
exhaust filter (dia. 29 + 30)
Do not use more than one exhaust
filter at a time.
^ Open the dust compartment lid.
^ Lift the filter and remove it.
^ Replace with a new filter, and push it
down into place.
If you wish to use an Air Clean filter,
see "Replacing one type of exhaust
filter with another".
^ Close the dust compartment lid.
Exhaust filter change indicator (dia.
28)
The filter change indicator needs to be
reset each time the filter is replaced. To
do this the vacuum cleaner must be
switched on.
^ Press the reset button.
The exhaust filter change indicator will
go out and reset to zero.
The filter change indicator can only
be reset by pressing the reset
button after the light has come on.
Pressing the button at any other time
will have no effect.
Replacing one type of exhaust filter
