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, eyewear and materials as necessary.
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 customer care helpline.
•
only use parts recommended by dyson. If you do not this could invalidate your
dyson guarantee.
•
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.
•
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.
VACUUMING
•
do not use without the clear bin and filter 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.
