•
•
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 power button, located as shown.
After use, unplug the appliance, retract the cable safely, and put the
appliance away.
WASHING YOUR FILTER
Your appliance has one washable filter, located as shown.
Check and wash the filter regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before checking or removing the filter.
The filter may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
Wash the filter with cold water only. Do not use detergents. Hold under a tap
and run water through the open end for 10 seconds. Turn upside down and tap
out 10 times.
•
•
•
Switch ‘OFF’ the appliance and unplug before:

Do not put the filter in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near a naked flame.
IMPORTANT: After washing please leave at least 24 hours to dry completely
before refitting.
BRUSH BAR
•
•
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 hard floors)
– Switch the machine ‘ON’.
– Press the brush bar ‘ON/OFF’ button – the brush bar will stop spinning.
The brush bar will automatically stop if it becomes obstructed. See ‘Brush bar –
clearing obstructions’ on pages 4 and 7.
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 in ‘hard floor’ mode 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.
•
•
•
LOOKING FOR BLOCKAGES
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before looking for blockages. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
Refit all parts securely before using.
Clearing blockages is not covered by your guarantee.
To access the flexible inspection hose beneath the clear bin, first remove the
clear bin (see above).
Unscrew the two Phillips screws on the clear bin locator bracket. (Do not remove
any other screws.) Remove the bracket.
Firmly twist the top of the flexible inspection hose away from the inlet next to the
ball (do not remove the end next to the connection for the main hose).
Inspect for blockages.
•
•
•
•
•
•
LOOKING AFTER YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
•
•
•
•
•
Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown in this

Store the appliance indoors. Do not use or store it below 0°C (32°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.
•
•
Reassemble in reverse order.
CLEARING BLOCKAGES – THERMAL CUT-OUT
This appliance is fitted with an automatically resetting thermal cut-out.
Large items may block the tools or wand inlet. If any part becomes blocked the
appliance may overheat and automatically cut-out.
•
•
•
•
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug. Leave to cool down for 1-2 hours before the checking
the filter or for blockages. Do not operate the wand release catch.
Clear any blockage before restarting.
VACUUMING
CAUTION:
•
•
Do not use without the clear bin and filter in place.
Fine dust such as plaster dust or 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’).
2
•
•
•
•
Powerful suction can cause the hose to ‘pull back’ – please take care.
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.

BRUSH BAR – CLEARING OBSTRUCTIONS

personal injury.
Remove the brush bar by using a coin to loosen the fastener marked with a
padlock.
Beware of sharp objects when clearing obstructions.
Replace the brush bar and secure it by tightening the fastener. Ensure it is fixed
firmly before operating.
