Using your Dyson appliance
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 appliance remains upright in use and in storage. Dirt and debris may be
released if it is turned upside down.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages.
• For domestic indoor and car use only. Do not use it whilst 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 switch back to the Powerful Suction mode position.
• This appliance has carbon fibre 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 appliance 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 motorised floor tool and consulting
with your flooring manufacturer.
• 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.
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.
• Check the brush bar regularly and clear away any debris (such as hair). Debris left
on the brush bar may cause damage to flooring when vacuuming.
Vacuuming
• Do not use without the clear bin and filters in place.
• 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. 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. 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 appliance on chairs, tables, etc.
• Do not press down on the nozzle with excessive force when using the appliance 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.
Emptying the clear bin
• Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill.
• Ensure the appliance 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 minimise 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 appliance 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 appliance has washable parts, which require regular cleaning. Follow the
instructions below.
Washing your filter

Be careful not to pull the ‘ON’ trigger.
• Your appliance has one washable filter, located as shown.
• To remove the filter, lift it out of the top of the appliance.
• 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. No hot water and no detergents.
• 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.
• Leave the filter 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 a naked flame.
• To refit, place the dry filter back into the top of the appliance. Make sure it is seated
properly.
Blockages – automatic cut-out
• This appliance is fitted with an automatic cut-out.
• If any part becomes blocked the appliance 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 appliance 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 guarantee.
Looking for blockages
The motor will pulse when there is a blockage. Please follow the instructions below
to locate the blockage:
• Ensure the appliance is disconnected from the charger before looking for blockages.
Be careful not to pull the ‘ON’ trigger.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages. 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, slide the brush bar out of the cleanerhead and remove
the obstruction. Replace the brush bar and secure it by tightening the fastener.
Ensure it is fixed firmly before operating the appliance.
• This appliance has carbon fibre 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 guarantee.
Charging and storing
• This appliance will switch ‘OFF’ if the battery temperature is below 3°C (37.4°F).
This is designed to protect the motor and battery. Do not charge the appliance and
then move it to an area with a temperature below 3°C (37.4°F) for storage purposes.
• To help prolong battery life, avoid recharging immediately after a full discharge.
Allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Avoid using the appliance with the battery flush to a surface. This will help it run
cooler and prolong battery run time and life.
