Using your Dyson machine
Please read the “Important Safety Instructions” in this Dyson operating manual
before proceeding.
Operation
• Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces or to vacuum water or other liquids – electric
shock could occur.
• Ensure the machine remains upright in use. Dirt and debris may be released if it is
turned upside down.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages as doing so could result in
personal injury.
• For domestic indoor and car use only. Do not use it while the car is in motion or
while driving.
• To operate the MAX mode, locate the switch on the top of the appliance. Slide the
switch to the Max mode position.
• To switch off MAX mode, slide the red switch back to the Powerful Suction
mode position.
• This machine has carbon fiber brushes. Take care if coming into contact with
them, as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling
the brushes.

Docking station installation
• Use appropriate mounting hardware for your wall type and ensure that the docking
station is mounted securely. Ensure no pipe work (gas, water, air) or electrical
cables, wires or ductwork are located directly behind the mounting area. The
docking station must be mounted in accordance with regulations and applicable
codes/standards (state and local laws may apply). Dyson recommends the use of
protective clothing, eyeware and materials when installing the docking station.
Carpets or hard floors
• Before vacuuming your flooring, rugs and carpets, check the manufacturer's
recommended cleaning instructions.
• The brush bar on the machine can damage certain carpet types and floors. Some
carpets will fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this happens, we
recommend vacuuming without the motorized floor tool and consulting with your
flooring manufacturer.
• Before vacuuming highly polished floors, such as wood or linoleum, first check that
the underside of the floor tool and its brushes are free from foreign objects that
could cause marking.
Looking after your Dyson machine
• Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown and
described in this Dyson Operating Manual, or advised by the Dyson Helpline.
• Only use parts recommended by Dyson. If you do not this may invalidate
your warranty.
• Store the machine indoors. Do not use or store it below 37.4°F (3°C). Ensure the
machine is at room temperature before operating.
• Clean the machine only with a dry cloth. Do not use any lubricants, cleaning agents,
polishes or air fresheners on any part of the machine.
Vacuuming
• Do not use without the clear bin and filter in place.
• Fine dirt such as plaster dust or flour should only be vacuumed in very
small amounts.
• Do not use the machine to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper clips,
etc. They may damage the machine.
• When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the clear
bin or wand. These are harmless and are not associated with the central electricity
supply. To minimize any effect from this, do not put your hand or insert any object
into the clear bin unless you have first emptied it. Clean the clear bin with a damp
cloth only. (See “Cleaning the clear bin”.)
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
• Do not rest the machine on chairs, tables, etc.
• Do not press down on the nozzle with excessive force when using the machine 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 luster.
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.
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before emptying the clear bin.
Be careful not to pull the “ON” trigger.
• To make emptying the clear bin easier, it is advisable to remove the wand and
floor tool.
• To minimize dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly in a
plastic bag and empty.
• To release the dirt, hold the appliance by the handle, pull the red lever back and lift
upwards to release the cyclone. Continue until the bin base automatically opens and
releases the dirt.
• Remove the clear bin carefully from the bag.
• Seal the bag tightly, dispose as normal.
• To close, push the cyclone downwards until it is in the normal position and manually
close the base of the bin – the base will click when it is securely in place.
Cleaning the clear bin
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before removing the clear bin.
Be careful not to pull the “ON” trigger.
• Remove the wand and floor tool.
• To remove the cyclone, hold the appliance by the handle, pull the red lever towards
you and lift upwards until the bin opens, then push in the red button located behind
the cyclone and lift the cyclone out.
• To detach the clear bin from the appliance, pull back on the red catch located at the
base, slide the clear bin down and carefully remove forwards from the main body.
• Clean the clear bin with a damp cloth only.
• Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
• Do not put the clear bin in a dishwasher.
• Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
• To replace the clear bin, align the tabs on the clear bin with the grooves on the main
body and slide upwards into place until the catch clicks.
• Slide the cyclone into the grooves of the main body and push downwards until it is in
its normal position and manually close the base of the bin – the base will click when
it is securely in place.
Washable parts
Your machine has washable parts, which require regular cleaning. Follow the
instructions below.
Washing your filter
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before removing the filter. Be
careful not to pull the “ON” trigger.
• Your machine has one washable filter, located as shown.
• To remove the filter, lift it out of the top of the machine.
• Check and wash the filter regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
• The filter may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust or if used
mainly in “POWERFUL SUCTION” mode.
• Wash the filter with cold water only.
• Run water over the outside of the filter until the water runs clear.
• Squeeze and twist with both hands to make sure the excess water is removed.
• Lay the filter on its side to dry. Leave to dry completely for a minimum of 24 hours.
• Do not put the filter in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near an open flame.
• To refit, place the dry filter back into the top of the machine. Make sure it is seated
properly.
Looking for blockages
The motor will pulse when there is a blockage. Please follow the instructions below
to locate the blockage:
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before looking for blockages.
Be careful not to pull the “ON” trigger.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages as doing so could result in
personal injury.
• Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
• To check for blockages in the main body of the appliance, remove the clear bin and
cyclone as per the instructions in the cleaning the clear bin section and remove the
blockage. Please consult the 'Stubborn blockages' section of the illustrations for
further guidance.
• If you cannot clear an obstruction you may need to remove the brush bar. Use a
coin to unlock the fastener marked with a padlock. Remove the obstruction. Replace
the brush bar and secure it by tightening the fastener. Ensure it is fixed firmly before
operating the machine.
• This machine has carbon fiber brushes. Take care if coming into contact with
them, as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling
the brushes.
• Refit all parts securely before using.
• Clearing blockages is not covered by your warranty.
Blockages – automatic cut-out
• This machine is fitted with an automatic cut-out.
• If any part becomes blocked the machine may automatically cut out.
• This will happen after the motor pulses a number of times (i.e switches on and off in
quick succession).
• Leave to cool down before looking for blockages.
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before looking for blockages.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
• Clear any blockage before restarting.
• Refit all parts securely before using.
• Clearing blockages is not covered by your warranty.
