USING YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
PLEASE READ THE 'IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS' IN THIS DYSON
OPERATING MANUAL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
CARRYING THE APPLIANCE
•
Carry the appliance by the main handle on the body.
•
Do not press the cyclone release button or shake the appliance when carrying or
the cyclone could disengage, fall off and cause injury.
OPERATION
•
Always extend the cable fully to the red tape before use.
•
Plug the appliance into the mains electricity supply.
•
To switch 'ON' or 'OFF' press the red power button, located as shown.
•
After use: unplug, retract the cable safely, put the appliance away.
•
Switch 'OFF' the appliance, unplug and ensure it is upright before:
– changing or using tools
– removing the hose or airway inspection parts.
CARPETS OR HARD FLOORS
•
The brush bar will always default to 'ON' (spinning) each time you switch the
appliance 'ON'.
•
To switch the brush bar 'OFF' (e.g. for delicate flooring), twist the dial on the
cleaner head a quarter of a turn. The brush bar will stop.
•
When the appliance is running and the brush bar has been switched 'OFF', the
brush bar can be switched 'ON' again by twisting the dial on the cleaner head
a quarter of a turn. The brush bar will start. Alternatively, switch the appliance
'OFF'; the dial will return to its original position. When the appliance is switched
'ON' again the brush bar starts automatically.
•
The brush bar can only be turned off once the machine is running.
•
The brush bar will automatically stop if it becomes obstructed. See 'Brush bar –
clearing obstructions'.
•
Before vacuuming your flooring, rugs and carpets, check the manufacturer's
recommended cleaning instructions.
•
Some carpets may fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this
happens, we recommend vacuuming with the brush bar switched 'OFF' and
consulting with the flooring manufacturer.
•
The brush bar on the appliance may damage some carpet types. If you are
unsure, turn 'OFF' the brush bar.
•
This product has carbon fibre brushes. Take care if coming into contact with
them, as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling
the brushes.
LOOKING AFTER YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
•
Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown in this
Dyson Operating Manual, or advised by the Dyson Helpline.
•
Only use parts recommended by Dyson. If you do not this could invalidate
your guarantee.
•
Store the appliance indoors. Do not use or store it below 3°C (37.4°F). Ensure
the appliance is at room temperature before operating.
•
Clean the appliance only with a dry cloth. Do not use any lubricants, cleaning
agents, polishes or air fresheners on any part of the appliance.
•
If used in a garage, always wipe the base plate and ball with a dry cloth
after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles that could damage
delicate floors.
VACUUMING
•
Do not use without the clear bin and filters in place.
•
Fine dirt such as flour should only be vacuumed in very small amounts.
•
Do not use the appliance to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper
clips, etc. They may damage the appliance.
•
When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the
clear bin or wand. These are harmless and are not associated with the mains
electricity supply. To minimise any effect from this, do not put your hand or
insert any object into the clear bin unless you have first emptied it and rinsed it
out with cold water (see 'Cleaning the clear bin').
•
Do not work with the appliance above you on the stairs.
•
Do not put the appliance on chairs, tables, etc.
•
Before vacuuming highly polished floors, such as wood or lino, first check that
the underside of the floor tool and its brushes are free from foreign objects that
could cause marking.
•
Do not push hard with the floor tool when vacuuming, as this may
cause damage.
•
Do not leave the cleaner head in one place on delicate floors.
•
On waxed floors the movement of the cleaner head may create an uneven
lustre. If this happens, wipe with a damp cloth, polish the area with wax, and
wait for it to dry.
EMPTYING THE CLEAR BIN
•
Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill. Be
careful not to press the switch at handle.
•
Switch 'OFF' and unplug before emptying the clear bin.
•
To remove the cyclone and clear bin unit, press down on the red button on the
top of the carrying handle on the cyclone.
•
To release the dirt, press all the way down on the same red button on the top of
the carrying handle on the cyclone.
•
To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly in
a plastic bag and empty.
•
Remove the clear bin carefully from the bag.
•
Seal the bag tightly, dispose as normal.
•
To refit:
– ensure the airway in the bin base is clear of dust and dirt
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place
– push the cyclone and clear bin unit into the main body of the appliance; it will
click into place
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.

CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN
•
Remove cyclone and clear bin (see 'Emptying the clear bin').
•
To separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin press the red button to open
the clear bin base. This exposes a small silver button behind the red opening
mechanism. Press the silver button and separate the cyclone unit from the
clear bin.
•
Clean the clear bin with cold water only.
•
Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
•
Do not put the clear bin in a dishwasher.
•
Do not immerse the whole cyclone in water or pour water into the cyclones.
•
Clean the cyclone shroud with a cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
•
Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
•
To refit:
– fit the cyclone shroud into the clear bin so that the silver button clicks and
engages. Ensure that the front of the clear bin is locked in place
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place
– push the cyclone and clear bin unit into the main body of the appliance; it will
click into place
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.
WASHING YOUR FILTERS
•
Your appliance has two washable filters, located as shown.

Check and wash the filters regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
•
Switch 'OFF' and unplug before checking or removing the filters.
•
The filters may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.

Wash the filters with cold water only. Do not use detergents.
•
Do not put the filters in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near a naked flame.
Filter A

•
Replace the filter into the cyclone. Swing the handle back into place. Ensure the
latch clicks to engage and is secure. Fit the cyclone and clear bin unit onto the

Filter B
•
To remove filter B:

Filter B should be rinsed in cold water only and tapped out until the water runs
clear, then tapped out again to ensure all excess water is removed. Tap out on
the hard plastic edge of the filter, not the rubber edge. Leave to dry completely
for 24 hours.
