USING YOUR DYSON APPLIANCE
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 appliance remains upright in use and in storage. Dirt and debris may
be released if it is turned upside down.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages.
• For domestic indoor and car use only. Do not use it whilst 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 appliance will retain the last used mode. So if you use it in max
mode and do not disengage it, the appliance will operate in Max mode when it
is next used until you depress the 'Max' button to disengage it.
• 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.

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.
• The brush bar on the appliance can damage certain carpet types and floors.
Some carpets will fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this
happens, we recommend vacuuming without the motorised floor tool and
consulting with your flooring manufacturer.
• 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.
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.
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. 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 appliance on chairs, tables, etc.
• Do not press down on the nozzle with excessive force when using the appliance
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.

WASHING THE FILTERS
• Your appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance.
• 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 a naked flame.
• To refit, place the dry filter back into the top of the appliance. Make sure it is
seated properly.
WASHING FILTER B
• To remove the filter, twist anti clockwise to the open position and pull away from
the appliance.
• Wash the inside of the filter under cold running water, rotating the filter to
ensure all pleats are covered.
• Gently tap the filter against the side of the sink several times to remove
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.
• To refit, return the filter to the open position and twist clockwise until it clicks
into place.
BLOCKAGES – AUTOMATIC CUT-OUT
• This appliance is fitted with an automatic cut-out.
• If any part becomes blocked the appliance may automatically cut out.
• This will happen after the motor pulses a number of times (i.e switches on and
off in quick succession).
• Leave to cool down before looking for blockages.
• Ensure the appliance is disconnected from the charger before looking for
blockages. Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
• Clear any blockage before restarting.
• Refit all parts securely before using.
• Clearing blockages is not covered by your guarantee.
CHARGING AND STORING
• This appliance will switch 'OFF' if the battery temperature is below 3°C
(37.4°F). This is designed to protect the motor and battery. Do not charge the
appliance and then move it to an area with a temperature below 3°C (37.4°F)
for storage purposes.
• To help prolong battery life, avoid recharging immediately after a full discharge.
Allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Avoid using the appliance with the battery flush to a surface. This will help it run
cooler and prolong battery run time and life.
