4. Blockage procedure
IMPORTANT
Please check your DCO1 for blockages if you notice that the vacuum cleaner stops picking up, the sound of the vacuum
cleaner changes pitch, or the suction reduces or stops altogether. Any 'Blockage only' repairs will incur a charge of £35.00*, so please
check your machine carefully.
1. Check filters
Filter life is dependent on the
amount the vacuum cleaner is
used but they must be replaced
at least every 3 months.
Replace both submicro filters with

Use only genuine Dyson filters.
