A parquet floor brush also is included to thoroughly but gently clean wood and tile floors.
The convenient plus and minus (+ / -) step-on button controls with LED indicator adjust to power six levels, depending on the type of flooring you're cleaning or surface you're dusting. Easy to understand graphic symbols indicate which setting is best suited for different kinds of surfaces, such as rugs and carpets, drapes or hard floors.
In addition, intelligent automatic setting selects the power level of the vacuum cleaner automatically to suit the floor surface currently being cleaned and ensures the most economical use of energy. And because the guesswork has been eliminated, there is no need for you to adjust the power level yourself.
The deluxe ergonomic handle makes vacuuming a breeze, keeping the strain off your wrist.
The Vortex Motor System packs the power of 1200-watt performance. It is designed for optimal power usage through the airflow for great cleaning performance with superior dust intake.
The three smooth-running 360° caster wheels mounted on steel axles ensure maximum stability and maneuverability for your vacuum cleaner. They are cleverly designed with a travel ramp to help you maneuver your vacuum easily over thresholds and around obstructions.
All Miele vacuums are known for their quiet operation, but a special sound insulation makes the Miele S5 Galaxy Aquarius canister vacuum particularly quiet. The new silence setting combines the lowest noise output with the ideal power level for optimum cleaning results.
For short breaks, the wand and floor tool can simply be inserted into the park system on the back of the barrel. This allows you to answer the door or the telephone without having to find an unsafe resting place for the wand or laying it on the floor.
For safe storage and easy transportation, two fittings allow the telescopic wand assembly to be hooked onto the barrel when it is upright - one on either side. So no matter whether you are right-handed or left-handed, the Miele S5 Galaxy Aquarius canister vacuum offers you an ideal solution. If you need to carry the vacuum cleaner up and down stairs, you will have the other hand free to hold on to the railing.
The fully integrated bumper strip made from soft plastic goes all the way around the vacuum to protect both furniture and the vacuum in the event of a collision.
A neat, on-board storage compartment holds three accessories: a crevice nozzle for hard to reach corners, an upholstery tool for all those crumbs on the couch and a dusting brush for the cobwebs in the corners are always on hand, whenever you need them.
Additional standard features include a stainless steel telescopic wand and safety shut-off to prevent overheating.
Warranty: 7-year suction motor; 1-year all non-wearing components.
