When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

WARNING
These warnings apply to the machine, and also where applicable, to all tools, accessories, chargers or mains adaptors.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY:

  1. This Dyson machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or reasoning capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the machine by a person responsible for their safety.
  2. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the machine.

  4. Suitable for dry locations ONLY. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
  5. Do not handle any part of the plug or machine with wet hands.
  6. Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by Dyson, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
  7. If the machine is not working as it should, has received a sharp blow, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, do not use and contact the Dyson Helpline.

  9. Do not stretch the cord or place the cord under strain. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not close a door on the cord, or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Arrange the cord away from traffic areas and where it will not be stepped on or tripped over. Do not run over the cord.
  10. Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord. The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
  11. Do not use to pick up water.

  15. Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.
  16. Use only Dyson-recommended accessories and replacement parts.
  17. Do not use without the clear bin and filter in place.
  18. Unplug from the outlet when not in use for extended periods and before maintenance or servicing.

USING YOUR DYSON MACHINE

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 machine remains upright in use. Dirt and debris may be released if it is turned upside down.
  • Do not operate while checking for blockages as doing so could result in personal injury
  • For domestic indoor and car use only. Do not use it while 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 machine will retain the last used mode. So if you use it in max mode and do not disengage it, the machine will operate in max mode when it is next used until you depress the max button to disengage it.
  •  This product has carbon fiber brushes. Take care if coming into contact with them, as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling the brushes.

CARPETS OR HARD FLOORS

  • Before vacuuming your flooring, rugs and carpets, check the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning instructions.
  • The brush bar on the machine 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 motorized floor tool and consulting with your flooring manufacturer.
  • 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.

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.

VACUUMING

  • Do not use without the clear bin and filter 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 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 machine on chairs, tables, etc.
  • Do not press down on the nozzle with excessive force when using the machine 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 luster. If this happens, wipe with a damp cloth, polish the area with wax, and wait for it to dry.
