The annual energy consumption stated
in the regulation describes the indicative
annual energy consumption (kWh per
year), based on 50 cleaning cycles. Ac-
tual energy consumption depends on
how the vacuum cleaner is used.
All tests and calculations were carried
out according to the following harmon-
ised standards applicable at the time in
due consideration of the published reg-
ulation guidelines of the European Com-
mission from September 2014:
a) EN 60312-1 Vacuum cleaners for
household use – Part 1: Dry vacuum

ilar electrical appliances – Safety – Part

For energy consumption and cleaning
class on carpet and hard floors and
sound power level on carpet, the ad-
justable floorhead was used with the

exclusively to the combinations and set-
tings of the floorhead on the different
floorings described here.
Only original Miele vacuum cleaner
