Overheating and shutting down: Blocked Miele Blizzard CX1 vacuum: how to check and clean filters 

Yhats the problem with the bagless system. They're rubbish. And with little or no maintenance they soon pack in. Thank heavens for people like you!

Every single part you pulled out, including the vaccum heads you should washed in warm/hot water. Part of the basic regular maintenaince for this model, you'll find in the manual. Manuals are freely available on the internet. No wonder people hear are scratching their heads. I have had mine for more than 8 years and its been maintained and fully cleaned regularly and it still is in working perfect condition. The little clear triangle pulls out. Your neighbour will just give it too you to 'fix' again rather than maintain it as they should.

There is another pleated filter located inside the machine which is non user serviceable. It is in the internal ducting between the exhaust side of the motor and the outer vent on the side of the machine where the exhaust air comes out. If the pre-motor filter in that round cartridge ever gets damaged or it passes dust through in any way or form, that exhaust filter will get clogged up and necessitate dismantling of the machine to get to the exhaust filter, which I imagine is not washable and costs a fortune to buy from Miele. It is a really stupid design to have a filter for the exhaust air hidden inside the machine that you cant see or get to. I only know about it as I dismantled one of these several years ago. To open the case there are hidden screws behind the switches and the trim on the top of the case. Not a machine I would recommend. That small cone filter within the primary cyclone chamber is another area to watch, as you found out - it gets clogged easily, much like the design of a Shark dust cup. I think on this occasion, washing the pre-motor pleated filter (that one is washable), and cleaning out the bin would be all you could have done. If the machine still keeps shutting down then its likely the exhaust filter will be clogged with fine dust, and that will need total dismantling of the machine to get to it.

The transparent filter in the canister can be removed just pulling it from the bottom part and normally you can remove the dust on it spanking the closed canister. The dust will fall on the bottom of the canister. Than you open the canister and unload it in the bin. If you keep pressed the "comfort" button, the vacuum cleaner will clean the HEPA filter. I like this vacuum cleaner (except for its weight) but is not for people who don't read the manual (or watch the instructional videos) or don't do basic maintenece. For them is better a bag one but filters are still needed to be cleaned. Great qualities of this vac are silence/suction power and the very low energy consumption.

Owen, I've found a match stick can cause a major build up, broken plastic bits, just as bad as dyson, Plus people who don't want to know about simple maintenance, you know what I say about helpless people, cheers

There is another filter inside the machine where you need to take the whole machine apart. If the machine sucks up the ring stuff it will block up.

a successor to this machine was released 1-1.5yrs ago called the Boost CX1. The design at least from the outside is very different. No idea whether they designed the insides more sensibly or not.

6:39 I was wondering about the purpose of this thing too, but can't figure it out.

Comfort means you press it once and itll rewind fully without having to hold it down

The filter is washable, do not scrub it.

Your Amazon link doesn't seem to work...

Excellent!

You know what’s annoying with vacuums like these they have no actual cyclone setup so they’ll have suction for a short amount of time and then clog up as it literally just relies on stuff like the filter whereas Dyson have cyclones like my 20 year old DC04 has good cyclones compared to these newer high end luxury machines bagged Mieles do the job I had a similar machine called the hoover dust manager which was a pure power with no bag and just a box a literal box for filth to go in it was shit
