USING YOUR DYSON MACHINE
PLEASE READ THE "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" IN THIS
DYSON OPERATING MANUAL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
ASSEMBLY
•
Lay 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.
•
Stand the machine up straight.
•
Attach the wand handle by sliding it on to the top of the machine. The
spring clip in the handle will click into place.
•
Ensure the hose is straight. Press the red button on the hose. Slide the
wand into 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.
•
Attach the tools as shown. In use, the tools can be attached to either the
hose or the wand.
•
Wind the cable around the cable hooks. Secure with the clip.
OPERATION
•
Unwind the cable.
•
Plug the machine into the mains electricity supply.
•
To switch 'ON' or 'OFF' press the red power button, located as shown.
•
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 filters 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.
10
•
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.
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
CAUTION
To remove the cyclone unit from the clear bin press the red bin release
button. This exposes a small silver button behind the red opening
mechanism. Press the silver button and separate the cyclone unit from the
clear bin.
•
Ensure the clear bin is completely dry before replacing.
PLEASE NOTE:
•
Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin.
•
Do not put the clear bin in a dishwasher.
•
Clean the cyclone shroud with a cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
WASHING YOUR FILTERS
•
Your machine has two washable filters, located as shown.
•
Check and wash the filters regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
•
Switch 'OFF' and unplug before checking or removing the filters.
The filters may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust or
carpet cleaning powders.
•
Wash with cold water only. Do not use detergents.
•
Do not put the filters in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer,
oven, microwave or near a naked flame.
FILTER A
•
Remove cyclone and clear bin (see 'Emptying the clear bin').
•
Release the catch on the front of the cyclone handle and then remove
the filter.
•
Wash the filter with cold water only. Hold under a tap and run water
through the open end until the water runs clear. Turn upside down and
tap out.
•
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.
•
Stand the filter on its wide, open end to dry. Leave to dry completely for a
minimum of 24 hours.
•
Replace the filter into the cyclone. Swing the handle back into place.
Ensure the latch clicks to engage and is secure. Fit the cyclone and clear
bin unit onto the machine (instructions above).
FILTER B
•
Lay the machine on its side.
•
To remove filter B:
– turn the blue central locking dial on the outer cover of the ball counter-
clockwise until the cover is released
– lift off the cover
– turn the filter one-quarter counter-clockwise to release.
•
Wash the filter with cold water only.
•
Filter B should be rinsed and tapped out until the water runs clear, then
tapped out again to ensure all excess water is removed. (Tap on the plastic
rim, not the filter material.) Leave to dry completely for a minimum of
24 hours.
•
It is normal for the filter in the ball to turn gray in color.
•
To refit filter B:
– refit the filter on to the ball
– secure the filter by turning it clockwise so the arrows align.
•
When refitting the outer cover of the ball, keep turning the central locking
dial clockwise. When it starts to click it is locked.
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 checking the filters or
for blockages.
•
Clear any blockage before restarting.
•
Look for blockages in the wand, airways and cleaner head.
