USING YOUR DYSON VACUUM CLEANER
PLEASE NOTE:
•Always extend the cable fully to the red tape before use.
•Fine dust such as plaster or flour should only be vacuumed in very small amounts.
•Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up sharp hard objects, such as small toys, pins, paper clips etc.
•If used in a garage, care should be taken to wipe the soleplate and wheels with a dry cloth after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles which could damage delicate floors.
•When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the clear bin. These are entirely harmless and not associated with the main supply. To minimise any effect from this, do not put your hand or insert any object into the clear bin unless you have emptied it and rinsed it out with cold water.
•Only use parts recommended by Dyson; failure to do so could invalidate your guarantee.
EMPTYING THE CLEAR BIN
CAUTION:
•Switch OFF and unplug the vacuum cleaner before emptying the clear bin.
•Empty as soon as the dirt reaches the level of the MAX mark – do not overfill. To remove the clear bin from the vacuum cleaner press the button at the rear of the carrying handle. To release the dirt, press the button on the front of the clear bin.
PLEASE NOTE:
•Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the clear bin in place.
•To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly in a plastic bag and empty. Remove the clear bin carefully and seal bag tightly, dispose as normal.
•Emptying inside a bag is recommended for all allergy sufferers
CLEANING THE CLEAR BIN
CAUTION:
•Do not immerse the whole cyclone in water or pour water into the cyclones.
•Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
•Clean the shroud with a cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
PLEASE NOTE:
•Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
•Do not put the clear bin in a dishwasher.
WASHING YOUR FILTER
CAUTION:
•Switch OFF and unplug the vacuum cleaner before removing the filter.
•Ensure the filter is completely dry before refitting it to the vacuum cleaner.
PLEASE NOTE:
•It is important to check your filter and wash at least every 6 months, according to instructions, to maintain performance.
•Please leave to dry completely for 24 hours.
•The filter may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
•Do not use detergents to clean the filter.
•Do not put the filter in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven, microwave or near a naked flame.
•Register for a filter wash reminder by email (Australia only); customercare@dyson.com.au
LOOKING FOR BLOCKAGES
CAUTION:
•Switch OFF and unplug the vacuum cleaner before checking for blockages.
•Beware of sharp objects when clearing blockages.
•Refit all parts of the vacuum cleaner securely before using.
PLEASE NOTE:
•Clearing blockages is not covered by your vacuum cleaner’s limited guarantee. If any part of your vacuum cleaner becomes blocked, it may overheat and then automatically shut off. Unplug the vacuum cleaner and leave to cool down.
Clear blockage before restarting.
•Large items may block the tools or wand inlet, if this happens switch the vacuum cleaner off and unplug the vacuum cleaner before removing the blockage.
Do not operate the wand release catch.
