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, hold the trigger down and press the max button.
The max button will light up.
• To switch off max mode, hold the trigger down and press the max button again.
Note: The machine will retain the last used mode. So if you use it in max mode
and do not disengage it, the machine will operate in max mode when it is next
used until you depress the max button to disengage it.
• 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.
• 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 filters 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 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 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.
DIAGNOSTICS - MAIN BODY
When in use, trigger pressed:
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 release the dirt, push the red button by the clear bin. Press once to open the
bin base. Press a second time to release the clear bin from the main body of
the machine.
• To minimize 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.
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.
• Push the red button by the clear bin. Press once to open the bin base. Press a
second time to release the clear bin from the main body of the machine.
• Remove the clear bin carefully.
• 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.
• Clean the cyclone shroud with the brush on the combination tool to remove lint
and dust.
• Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
• To replace the clear bin, push the clear bin up and in to the main body of the
machine. It will click into place.
• Close the clear bin base so it clicks into place and is secure.
WASHING THE FILTERS
• Your machine has two washable filters; wash the filters at least once a month
according to the following instructions to maintain performance. More frequent
washing may be required where the user: vacuums fine dust, operates mainly in
'Powerful suction' mode, or uses the machine intensively.
WASHING FILTER A
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before removing the filter.
Be careful not to pull the ‘ON’ trigger.
• 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.

any debris.
• Repeat this process 4-5 times until the filter is clean.
• Place the filter upright, with the Max button facing upwards, and leave to dry
completely for a minimum of 24 hours.
