immediately. The cord must only be replaced by Dyson or our appointed service
agents to avoid a hazard.
• Take extra care when vacuuming on stairs; always work with the vacuum at the
bottom of the stairs. Keep the vacuum on the floor. Do not put the vacuum on
chairs, tables etc.
• Switch off and unplug the vacuum before changing accessories, removing the
clear bin, filters, hose, checking for blockages or before performing any other
maintenance operation.
• The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
• Do not lubricate any parts, or carry out any maintenance or repair work other
than that shown in this Operating Manual, or as advised by the Dyson Helpline.
• If the vacuum is not functioning properly, has been dropped, damaged, left
outdoors, or immersed in liquid, contact the Dyson Helpline.

plate which can be found behind the clear bin. The vacuum must only be used
as rated.

fall and cause injury.
PLEASE NOTE:
• The brush bar will reset to 'ON' each time you start the vacuum.
• Consult your flooring manufacturer's recommended instructions before
vacuuming and caring for your flooring, rugs and carpets. Some carpets
will fuzz if a rotating brush bar is used when vacuuming. If this happens, we
recommend vacuuming in bare floors mode and consulting with your flooring
manufacturer.
• This vacuum is designed for household indoor and car use only; it should not
be used or stored outdoors. It should not be used for commercial or rental
purposes.
• The vacuum may be used inside a garage only with the Model 08909 Dyson
Car Cleaning Kit accessories. 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.
• Fine dust such as plaster dust or flour should only be vacuumed in very small
amounts.
• Do not use the vacuum to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper
clips etc., because they may damage the vacuum.
• When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in the clear
bin or wand. These are not associated with the electricity supply. To minimize
any effect from this, do not put your hand or insert any object into the clear bin
unless you have first emptied it and rinsed it out with cold water.
• If you need to reprogram the remote control on the wand please contact the
Dyson Helpline.
