Caring for the environment

Disposing of sales packaging
The packaging material protects the vacuum cleaner from transport damage. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally Nfriendly for disposal and can therefore be recycled. Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and  young children. Danger of suffocation.

Disposing of your old appliance
Before disposing of your old appliance, remove the fine dust filter including the filter mat and the exhaust filter and dispose of them with your household waste. Electrical and electronic appliances contain many valuable materials. They also contain certain materials, compounds and components which were essential for their correct functioning and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with household waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with household waste. Instead, please make use of the officially designated collection and disposal points to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances in your local community, with your dealer or with Miele. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored for disposal.
