USING YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
VACUUMING
PLEASE READ THE ‘IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS’ IN THIS DYSON
OPERATING MANUAL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
CAUTION:
•
•
Do not use without the clear bin and filters 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’).
ASSEMBLY
Lie the appliance on its back.
•
•
•
•
Attach the cleaner head by sliding it on to the connections on the lower front part
of the ball. Ensure the electrical plug on the cleaner head fits into the twin-block
connection on the body of the appliance, which is directly above the airway.
Push firmly: the cleaner head will click into place.
Stand the appliance up straight.
Attach the wand handle by sliding it on to the top of the appliance. The spring
clip in the handle will click into place.
Ensure the hose is straight. Press the red button on the hose. Slide the wand into
the hose.
Ensure the hose and wand sit in the recess of the handle. Slide the end of the
wand down into the handle to secure it.
Close the wand cap.
Slide the tool holder onto the side of the duct as shown.
Ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secured to the main body of the
appliance.
Attach the tools as shown. In use, the tools can be attached to either the hose or
the wand.
Wind the cable anti-clockwise around the cable hooks. Secure with the clip.
To watch a short online video visit:
•
•
•
•
•
•
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 leave the cleaner head in one place on delicate floors.
EMPTYING THE CLEAR BIN
•
•
•
Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill.
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before emptying the clear bin.
To remove the cyclone and clear bin unit, press down on the red button at the
rear of the carrying handle on the cyclone.
•
•
•
•
•
To release the dirt, press all the way down on the red button at the rear of the
carrying handle on the cyclone.
To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly in
a plastic bag and empty.
OPERATION
Unwind the cable.
•
•
•
Remove the clear bin carefully.
•
•
•
•
•
Seal the bag tightly, dispose as normal.
Plug the appliance into the mains electricity supply.
To switch ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’ press the power button, located as shown.
To use, recline the handle. The stabiliser stand will automatically lift up.
After use, return the appliance to the upright position, pushing it firmly into
place. The stabiliser wheels will automatically lower.
Then unplug the appliance, coil the cable safely and put the appliance away.
Switch ‘OFF’ the appliance, unplug and ensure it is upright before:
– changing or using tools
To refit:
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place
– push the cyclone and clear bin unit into the main body of the appliance; it will
click into place
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.
•
•
•
CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN
– removing the hose or airway inspection parts.
Use the cyclone carry handle to carry the appliance.
•
•
Remove the cyclone and clear bin (instructions above).
To separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin press the red button to open
the clear bin base. This exposes a small silver button behind the red opening
mechanism. Press the silver button and separate the cyclone unit from the
clear bin.
•
ATTACHMENTS
To release the wand, open the wand cap and pull the red tube up and away from
the handle until it clicks into place.
Should you wish to use the hose without the wand, follow the above instruction
and press the red button to release the wand from the hose.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Clean the clear bin with cold water only.
Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
Do not put the clear bin in a dishwasher.
Do not immerse the whole cyclone unit in water or pour water into the cyclones.
Clean the cyclone shroud with a dry cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
To refit the bin to the cyclone unit:
– fit the cyclone shroud into the clear bin so that the silver button clicks and
engages
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place
– push the cyclone and clear bin unit into the main body of the appliance; it will
click into place
CARPETS OR HARD FLOORS
The brush bar will always default to ‘ON’ (spinning) each time you switch the
appliance ‘ON’ and recline it for cleaning.
The brush bar will not rotate when the appliance is upright.
To switch the brush bar off (e.g. for delicate rugs and hard floors):
– switch the appliance ‘ON’
•
•
•
– recline the appliance
– 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’.
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.
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.
•
•
•
WASHING YOUR FILTERS
Your appliance has two washable filters, located as shown.
Check and wash the filters regularly according to instructions to maintain
performance.
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before checking or removing the filters.
The filters may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
Wash with cold water only. Do not use detergents.
Do not put filters in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near a naked flame.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
LOOKING AFTER YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
•
•
To remove filter A see the ‘Wash filters’ section in this Dyson Operating Manual.
After washing lay the filter on its side and leave at least 24 hours to dry
completely before refitting.
•
•
•
•
•
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.
•
To remove filter B:
– turn the central locking dial on the outer cover of the ball anti-clockwise until
the cover is released
– lift off the cover
– turn the filter one-quarter anti-clockwise to release.
Filter B should be rinsed and tapped out until the water runs clean, then tapped
out again to ensure all excess water is removed. Leave to dry completely for
24 hours.
It is normal for the filter in the ball to turn grey in colour.
To refit filter B:
Store the appliance indoors. Do not use or store it below 0°C. 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, ball and stabiliser wheels with
a dry cloth after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles that could
damage delicate floors.
•
•
•
– refit the filter on to the ball
– secure the filter by turning it one-quarter turn clockwise.
When refitting the outer cover of the ball, keep turning the central locking dial
clockwise. When it starts to click it is locked.

SUMMARY OF COVER
The guarantee becomes effective at the date of purchase (or the date of delivery
if this is later).
You must provide proof of (both the original and any subsequent) delivery/
purchase before any work can be carried out on your Dyson appliance. Without
this proof, any work carried out will be chargeable. Keep your receipt or
delivery note.

The repair or replacement of your Dyson appliance under guarantee will not
extend the period of guarantee.

Pull the cleaner head away from the appliance. Use a constant, firm pressure.
At each end of the cleaner head are two levers:
– swing them out at right angles

– lift out.
Beware of sharp objects when clearing obstructions.
To refit the base plate:
– fit the 3 lugs on the lower edge of the base plate into the 3 slots in the base of
the cleaner head
– swing the upper edge of the base plate down; it will click into place.
To secure the base plate push both levers back into position so they are flush
with the surface of the cleaner head.
Refit the red ‘C ‘clip onto the cleaner head. The flatter edge of the clip fits
against the cleaner head. It is easier to slide one lug into its slot before the other.
