Operation; Power Cord; Auto-Reverse - Miele S500 Operating Instructions Manual

Power cord

Unwind the cable completely to aid
the vacuum in dissipating heat.
Unwinding
^ Hold the plug and pull out the power
cord to its full length.
,
To reduce the risk of electric
shock, the vacuum has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will only fit in a
polarized outlet one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified technician who can install
a proper outlet. Do not alter the plug
in any way. Danger of overheating
and damage.
Rewinding
^ Unplug the vacuum from the outlet.
^ Press the rewind button. The power
cord will rewind automatically.

Auto-reverse

(select models)
To use this feature, move the slide
switch to "Auto-Reverse". This releases
the cable reel brake and allows the
spring loaded reel to take up the slack
between the appliance and the outlet.
