plate. The machine must only be used as rated.

ASSEMBLY

• Lie the machine 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 machine, which is directly above the airway.
Push firmly: the cleaner head will click into place.

the hose.
• Ensure the wand and hose sit in the recess of the handle. Slide the end of the
wand down into the handle to secure it.

• To use, recline the handle. The stabilizer stand will automatically lift up.
• After use, return the machine to the upright position, pushing it firmly into place.
The stabilizer wheels will automatically lower.
• Then unplug the machine, coil the cable safely and put the machine away.
• Switch 'OFF' the machine, unplug and ensure it is upright before:
– changing or using tools
– removing the hose or airway inspection parts.
• Use the cyclone carry handle to carry the machine.
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.

CARPETS OR HARD FLOORS

• The brush bar will always default to 'ON' (spinning) each time you switch the
machine 'ON' and recline it for cleaning.
• The brush bar will not rotate when the machine is upright.
• To switch the brush bar 'OFF' (e.g. for delicate rugs and delicate flooring):
– switch the machine 'ON'
– recline the machine
– 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 with the brush bar switched 'OFF' and
consulting with the flooring manufacturer.
• The brush bar on the machine may damage some carpet types. If you are
unsure, turn 'OFF' the brush bar.
• 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.
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.
• 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 cyclone 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 minimize any effect from this (small static charge),
do not put your hand or insert any object into the clear bin unless you have first
emptied it and cleaned it with a damp cloth (see 'Cleaning the clear bin').
• Do not work with the machine above you on the stairs. When cleaning stairs it
is recommended that the handle is not extended and that you use a tool on the
end of the hose rather than the wand.
• Do not put the machine on chairs, tables, etc.
• 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.
• Do not leave the cleaner head in one place on delicate floors.
• Do not use this machine outdoors. The Dyson Car Cleaning Kit (Model 08909)
is intended for use only inside a garage.
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 on the
top of the carrying handle on the cyclone.
• To release the dirt, press all the way down on the same red button on the top of
the carrying handle on the cyclone.
• 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.
• To refit:
– ensure the airway in the bin base is clear of dust and dirt
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place
– push the cyclone and clear bin unit into the main body of the machine;
it will click into place
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.
CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN
• Remove cyclone and clear bin (see 'Emptying the clear bin').
• To separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin press the red button to open the
clear bin base. Press the silver button and separate the cyclone unit from the
clear bin.
• Clean the clear bin with cold water only.
• 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 in water or pour water into the cyclones.
• Clean the cyclone shroud with a cloth or the provided brush to remove any lint
and dust.
• Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
• To refit:
– fit the cyclone shroud into the clear bin so that the silver button clicks and
engages. Ensure that the front of the clear bin is locked in place
– close the clear bin base so it clicks into place

it will click into place
– ensure the cyclone and clear bin unit is secure.
BLOCKAGES – THERMAL CUT-OUT
• This machine is fitted with an automatically resetting thermal cut-out.
• Large items may block the tools or wand inlet. If any part becomes blocked the
machine may overheat and automatically cut-out.
• If this happens, follow the instructions below in 'Looking for blockages'.
LOOKING FOR BLOCKAGES
• Switch 'OFF' and unplug before looking for blockages. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
• Leave to cool down for 1-2 hours before looking for blockages.
• Clear any blockage before restarting.
• Look for blockages in the wand, airways and cleaner head.
• To release the hose from the machine, you will need to remove the wand.
• Open the wand release cap.

by pressing the red tab on the base of the hose – you can see it from the front of
the machine.
• Check for blockages in the hose.
• Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
• To refit the hose, align the guides on the base of the hose with the channels in
the neck of the airway. Ensure the red tab faces the front of the machine. Push
the hose on. It will click into place. To refit the wand follow the instructions above
in the 'OPERATION' section.
• To remove the base plate to access an obstruction, see 'Base plate –
disassembly/reassembly'.

head you will need to remove the cleaner head: see 'Base plate – disassembly/
reassembly' below on how to do this.
• To look for blockages in the rear airway between the ball and the cleaner head
you will need to release the hose. Hold and slide the red cuff out.
Check thoroughly for blockages and slot back into place.
