Vacuum cleaner smells unpleasant

The vacuum cleaner smells unpleasant.

Vacuum cleaner without FilterBag: The dust container contains debris that smells bad.

Empty the dust container.

Vacuum cleaner with FilterBag: The FilterBag contains debris that smells bad.

Change the FilterBag.

Tips to prevent unpleasant odors:

  • Do not vacuum up liquids or any damp dirt. Allow steam-cleaned or shampooed carpets and rugs to dry out completely before vacuuming.

  • You can also equip your vacuum cleaner with the Active AirClean filter. The active charcoal in the filter neutralizes smells before the air is released to the environment again.

Original Miele accessories are available from the Miele online store, Miele Service, and your Miele dealer.
