USING YOUR DYSON VACUUM CLEANER
PLEASE NOTE:
PLEASE REGISTER AS A DYSON OWNER
To help us ensure you receive prompt and efficient service, please register as
a Dyson owner. There are three ways to do this:
•
•
Fine dust such as plaster or flour should only be vacuumed in very small
amounts.
Consult your flooring manufacturer’s recommended instructions before
vacuuming and caring for your flooring, rugs and carpets. Some carpets will
fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this is the case, we
recommend vacuuming in hard floors mode and consulting with your flooring
manufacturer.
•
•
By calling the Dyson Customer Care Helpline on ANZ 1800 239 766 or
NZ 0800 397 667.
By completing and returning the enclosed form to us by mail.
This will confirm ownership of your Dyson vacuum cleaner in the event of an
insurance loss, and enable us to contact you if necessary.
•
•
•
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 which could
damage delicate floors.
When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the clear
bin. These are entirely harmless and not associated with the main supply. To
minimise any effect from this, do not put your hand or insert any object into the
clear bin unless you have emptied it and rinsed it out with cold water.
Do not use or store this vacuum cleaner below 0°C (32°F). Ensure that the
vacuum cleaner is at room temperature before operating.
•
CARPETS/HARD FLOORS
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.
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 button to release the wand and hose from the
machine. 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 and unplug the vacuum cleaner before emptying the clear bin.
Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill.
To remove the clear bin from the vacuum cleaner, press the button at the
rear of cyclone carrying handle. To release the dirt, press the red bin
release button.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
•
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the clear bin in place.
To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase bin tightly in a plastic
bag and empty. Remove bin carefully and seal bag tightly, dispose as normal.
CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN
CAUTION:
•
•
Do not immerse the whole cyclone in water or pour water into the cyclones.
Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
•
•
Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
Do not put clear bin in a dishwasher.
Clean the shroud with a cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
WASHING YOUR FILTER
CAUTION:
PLEASE NOTE:
•
It is important to check your filter and wash at least every 6 months, according
to instructions, to maintain performance.
•
•
•
•
Please leave to dry completely for 24 hours.
The filter may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
Do not use detergents to clean the filter.
Do not put the filter in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near a naked flame.
•
Register for a filter wash reminder by email (Australia only);
LOOKING FOR BLOCKAGES
CAUTION:
•
•
•
Switch OFF and unplug the vacuum cleaner before checking for blockages.
Beware of sharp objects when clearing blockages.
Refit all parts of the vacuum cleaner securely before using.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
Clearing blockages is not covered by your vacuum cleaner’s limited guarantee.
If any part of your vacuum cleaner becomes blocked, it may overheat and then
automatically shut off. Unplug the vacuum cleaner and leave to cool down.
Clear blockage before restarting.
Large items may block the tools or wand inlet, if this happens switch the vacuum
cleaner off and unplug the vacuum cleaner before removing the blockage.
