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 cyclone in place.

• 

Do not use on rubble, ash or plaster. This appliance is designed only for 

domestic use to remove household dirt, hair and allergens. The appliance is not 

designed to be used on:

 

– debris produced from activities such as DIY, building or similar tasks

 

– larger types and quantities of dust or debris, such as soot and sawdust.

These materials may harm the appliance and may void your guarantee.

• 

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.

• 

To reduce suction (for example, when vacuuming rugs), pull the suction release 

trigger on the handle to reduce the airflow.

EmPtYING thE CLEAR bIN

• 

Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill.

• 

Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before emptying the clear bin.

• 

To remove the cyclone and clear bin unit, push the release button to the side of 

the carrying handle, as shown. The carrying handle will be released.

• 

To release the dirt, press the red bin release button.

• 

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.

• 

Close the clear bin base so it clicks into place and is secure.

• 

Place the clear bin and cyclone unit into position on the front of the main body 

of the appliance. The recess in the base of the clear bin must fit onto the lug on 

the support bracket.

• 

Push the carrying handle down so it clicks into place on the top of the clear bin 

and cyclone unit. Ensure it is secure.

clear bin.

Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.

the clear bin onto the lug on the front of the cyclone; then push the rear of the 

clear bin into place so the silver button engages and clicks into place.
