•
•
•
The brush bar will always default to ‘ON’ (spinning) each time you switch the
appliance ‘ON’.
WAShING YOUR fILtERS
•
•
Your appliance has two washable filters, located as shown.
Check and wash the filters regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
To switch the brush bar ‘OFF’ (e.g. for delicate flooring), twist the dial on the
cleaner head a quarter of a turn. The brush bar will stop.
When the appliance is running and the brush bar has been switched ‘OFF’, the
brush bar can be switched ‘ON’ again by twisting the dial on the cleaner head
a quarter of a turn. The brush bar will start. Alternatively, switch the appliance
'OFF'; the dial will return to its original position. When the appliance is switched
'ON' again the brush bar starts automatically.
The brush bar can only be turned off once the machine is running.
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 with the brush bar switched 'OFF' 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.
This product 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.
•
•
•
•
Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before checking or removing the filters.
The filters may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
Wash the filters with cold water only. Do not use detergents.
Do not put the filters in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near a naked flame.
•
•
Filter A
•
•
•
•
•
•
Remove the cyclone and clear bin (instructions above).
Release the catch on the front of the cyclone handle. Swing the handle back.
Lift out the filter.
Wash the filter with cold water only. Hold under a tap and run water through the
open end until the water runs clear. Turn upside down and tap out.
Squeeze and twist with both hands to make sure the excess water is removed.
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.
Stand the filter on its wide, open end to dry. Leave to dry completely for a
minimum of 24 hours.
Replace the filter into the cyclone. Swing the handle back into place. Ensure the
latch clicks to engage and is secure. Fit the cyclone and clear bin unit onto the
appliance (instructions above).

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.
Filter B
•
•
To remove filter B:
– use a coin to turn the fastener one-quarter anti-clockwise to the
unlocked position
– remove the filter cover from the appliance
– separate the filter from the cover.
Filter B should be rinsed in cold water only and tapped out until the water runs
clear, then tapped out again to ensure all excess water is removed. Tap out on
the hard plastic edge of the filter, not the rubber edge. Leave to dry completely
for 24 hours.
To refit, re-assemble in reverse order.
IMPORTANT: After washing please leave the filters at least 24 hours to dry
completely before refitting.
To watch a short online video visit:
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.
If used in a garage, always wipe the base plate and ball with a dry cloth
after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles that could damage
delicate floors.
•
•
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 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’).
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 push hard with the floor tool when vacuuming, 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.
To park the wand, collapse the wand and then store the cleaner head by
inserting it in the clip at the back of the main body
bLOCKAGES – thERmAL CUt-OUt

•
•
This includes temporary blockages of the wand or tool inlet by flexible items
such as soft furnishings, clothing and loose lino, or by internal blockages by
items sucked into the machine.
If this happens, follow the instructions below in 'Looking for blockages'.
NOTE: Large items may block the tools or wand inlet. If this happens, do not
operate the wand release catch. Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
•
