Miele COMPLETE-C2-CAT-AND-DOG-POWERLINE user manual

The red light on a Miele Complete C2 Cat and Dog PowerLine vacuum indicates that there is a blockage or a full bag in the vacuum. It is a warning indicator that prompts users to check and clean the filter and hoses, as well as to empty or replace the bag if necessary. Once the issue is resolved, the red light should turn off.

There could be several reasons why your Miele cordless vacuum is not working:
1. Battery Issue: The battery might be dead or not properly charged. Plug it in and let it charge for a while before trying again.
2. Dust Bin Full: If the dust bin is full, the vacuum might not work properly. Empty the dust bin and try using the vacuum again.
3. Clogged Filters: The filters in the vacuum could be clogged, which would affect its performance. Clean or replace the filters if necessary.
4. Blocked Air Passages: The air passages within the vacuum could be blocked. Make sure there's no debris or dirt blocking these passages.
5. Motor Issue: If the motor is burnt out or damaged in some way, the vacuum will not work. You will likely need to have it replaced.
6. Nozzle or hose issue: If the nozzle or hose is clogged, the vacuum will not work. Remove any blockages you find in these parts.
7. Faulty Power switch: If the power switch is faulty, the vacuum will not be able to turn on. This usually requires a professional repair or replacement.
Remember to always refer to your vacuum's user manual for specific troubleshooting steps. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Miele or a professional repair service.

The filter on a Miele air cleaner should be replaced every 12 months or depending on the usage and air quality. It is always best to consult the user's manual for specific details. Additionally, some models may signal you when it's time to change the filter.

Miele recommends changing the vacuum bags approximately once every three to four months, or when they are full. However, the frequency of bag changes can vary depending on the usage and the amount of debris and pet hair being vacuumed. It is always best to check the bag's fullness regularly and replace it when necessary to ensure optimal performance and suction power.
