The Miele CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless Canister Vacuum's produces high velocity airflow using Ingenious Cyclone vortex technology to swiftly capture pet hair, dander, dirt, debris, and even fine dust. The CX1's lifetime HEPA filter keeps allergens from being discharged back into your air—wonderful for allergy sufferers. Power of the Cyclone Miele has developed its Vortex Technology based on the power of a cyclone. Creating intense, high-velocity airflow, it not only pulls in everything from dried mud to fine dust, but separates coarse dirt from fine dust, depositing them into separate containers. With the help of 3 filters, pet hair, fine dust, and allergens stay trapped inside. Filter Freedom The CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless vacuum utilizes 3 filters which help to trap fine dust during collection and prevent tiny particles from being discharged back into your air. All three filters are lifetime guaranteed. HEPA AirClean Exhaust Filter is a high-quality filter that is absolutely maintenance free, lasting the entire life of the vacuum with no need for changing or cleaning. You save on cost and time. Hygiene Lifetime Filter inside the fine dust container captures and retains 99.98% of ultra-fine dust, particles, and allergens. GORE® CleanStream® Fine Dust Filter minimizes fine dust being released into your air when the main bin is emptied by helping to trap fine dust inside a separate container. Automatic Filter Cleaning With the luxury of lifetime filters, they do need to be cleaned from time to time. Miele makes this even easier with the ComfortClean System which uses sensors to track air throughput in the Gore® CleanStream® fine-dust filter. When needed, the ComfortClean System will be automatically activated, and in only 20 seconds, your CX1 is ready to continue cleaning at maximum performance and efficiency. You can also manually activate this system by using the ComfortClean button on the housing of the vacuum. After cleaning up a quantity of fine dust, cat fluff, or dog hair, it will clean the fine-dust filter for continuous, powerful suction.
