Ensure the hose is straight and slide the wand straight down into the hose until it
clicks into place.
•
Click the wand handle into the top of the vacuum cleaner. Press the red button
on the rear of the wand handle and slide the tube down. Close the wand cap.
•
Attach the tools to the vacuum cleaner and wind the cable anti-clockwise around
cable hooks and secure with clip.
USING YOUR DYSON VACUUM CLEANER
Unwind the cable and insert the plug into a suitable socket. Hold the cleaner
head down with your foot and pull the handle downwards. To switch ‘ON’ or
‘OFF’ press the red power button in front of the handle.
CAUTION:
•
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to be used by anyone who may not be able to
operate it safely.
•
The use of an extension cable is not recommended.
•
Always switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before performing maintenance on your
vacuum cleaner.
•
Ensure the cyclone is secured to the vacuum cleaner. Do not press the cyclone
release button or shake the vacuum cleaner while carrying or it could fall and
cause injury.
•
Store the vacuum cleaner indoors. Put the vacuum cleaner away after use with
the cable coiled safely, to prevent tripping hazards.
•
Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces or to vacuum water or other liquids –
electric shock could occur.
•
Do not lubricate any parts, or carry out any maintenance or repair work other
than that shown in this manual, or advised by the Dyson Customer Care
Helpline.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
This vacuum cleaner is intended for domestic use only. Fine dust such as plaster
dust or flour should only be vacuumed in very small amounts.
•
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins,
paper clips, etc. They may damage the vacuum cleaner.
•
If used in a garage, care should be taken to wipe the soleplate and wheels with
a dry cloth after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles that could
damage delicate floors.
•
Consult your flooring manufacturer’s recommended instructions before
vacuuming and caring for your flooring, rugs, and carpet. Some carpets
will fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this happens,
we recommend vacuuming in hard floors mode and consulting with your
flooring manufacturer.
•
When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the clear
bin. These are entirely harmless and are not associated with the mains 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’ section on page 8).
•
Do not use or store this vacuum cleaner below 0°C. Ensure that the vacuum
cleaner is at room temperature before operating.
HARD FLOORS/CARPETS
Ensure the machine is in an upright position before adjusting the setting. The
brush bar will automatically stop if it becomes obstructed. If the brush bar stops
during use, please refer to the ‘Clearing brush bar obstructions’ section (see
pages 4 and 8).
HIGH-REACH CLEANING
CAUTION:
•
Switch ‘OFF’ the vacuum cleaner before changing tools.
•
Powerful suction can cause the hose to ‘pull back’ - please take care.
•
Take extra care when vacuuming on stairs; do not work with the vacuum cleaner
above you on the stairs. Do not put the vacuum cleaner on chairs, tables etc.
•
Ensure vacuum cleaner is in upright position before using tools.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
To release the wand, open the wand cap and pull the red tube from inside the
handle until it clicks. Press the grey button at the front of the carry handle to
release the wand and hose from the vacuum cleaner. Tools can be attached to
either the hose or wand.

The brush bar will not rotate when the vacuum cleaner is in an upright position.
•
Ensure wand cap is closed when not in use.
EMPTYING THE CLEAR BIN
CAUTION:
•
Switch ‘OFF’ the vacuum cleaner and unplug before emptying the clear bin.

To remove the clear bin from the vacuum cleaner, press the grey button at the
rear of cyclone carrying handle. To release the dirt, press the red bin release
button. Emptying into a bag is recommended for people with asthma and
allergies.

To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly
in a plastic bag and empty. Remove the clear bin carefully and seal bag tightly,
dispose as normal.
•
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the clear bin in place.
CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN

This exposes a small silver button behind the red opening mechanism. Press the
silver button and separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin.
