Miele S140 - Manual (Page 23)

Replacing the dustbag
^ Press the dust compartment release
button and open the compartment
lid.
The dustbag has a built in flap that will
automatically slide over the hole when
the dustbag is removed to prevent any
dirt from escaping.
^ Grasp the card collar and pull out
slightly to seal bag before completely
removing it from the dustbag holder.
As long as the vacuum has not been
used on restricted or hazardous materi-
als, the dustbag can be thrown out with
the household trash.
Do not unfold the dustbag when you
take it out of the box. Keeping it folded
will prevent it from getting caught when
the dust compartment lid is closed.
^ Slide the collar of the new dustbag
into the empty frame.
^ Close the dust compartment lid so
that it catches. The dustbag will auto-
matically seat itself over the vacuum
intake tube inside of the compart-
ment.
,
If the dustbag is not inserted
correctly, or it is trapped between
the dust compartment lid and the
vacuum housing, the lid will not
close properly.
Do not attempt to force the lid shut!
