Emptying Your Bin; Cleaning Your Bin - Dyson v12 detect slim User Manual

Emptying your bin

Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the MAX level – don't overfill. Using your
machine when the dirt is above the MAX line may affect the performance
and require more frequent filter washing.
Overfilling your bin could result in inaccurate readings on the particle graph.
Remove your wand
Press the red wand release button, on the top of the wand, and pull the wand away
from the bin.
Release the dirt
Hold the machine over the bin, pointing downwards.
Firmly push the red bin release button. The bin will slide down, cleaning the shroud
as it goes, and the bin base will open.
The bin base won't open if the red bin release button isn't pushed down all the way.
Minimise dust contact
Cover your bin tightly in a dust proof bag while you empty. Remove the bin carefully,
seal the bag tightly and dispose.
Close your bin
Push the bin base upwards until the bin and bin base click into place.
