BLOCKAGES – THERMAL CUT-OUT
• This machine is fitted with an automatically resetting thermal cut-out.
• Large items may block the tools or wand inlet. If any part becomes
blocked the machine may overheat and automatically cut-out.
• If this happens, follow the instructions below in 'Looking for
blockages'.
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.
• To release the hose from the machine, you will need to remove
the wand.
• Open the wand release cap.
• Pull the wand up and away from the handle.
• Press the red release button in the connecting collar and remove the
wand from the hose.
• Remove the clear bin and cyclone unit. Then release the hose from the
machine by pressing the red tab on the base of the hose –you can see
it from the front of the machine.
• Check for blockages in the hose.
• Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
• To refit the hose, align the guides on the base of the hose with the
channels in the neck of the airway. Ensure the red tab faces the front
of the machine. Push the hose on. It will click into place. To refit the
wand follow the instructions above in the ‘OPERATION’ section.
• To remove the base plate to access an obstruction, see ‘Base plate –
disassembly/reassembly’.
• To look for blockages in the front airway between the ball and the
cleaner head you will need to remove the cleaner head: see ‘Base
plate – disassembly/reassembly’ below on how to do this.
• To look for blockages in the rear airway between the ball and the
cleaner head you will need to release the hose. Hold and slide the red
cuff out. Check thoroughly for blockages and slot back into place.
• Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
• To look for blockages in the ball, open the clear plastic inlet on
the top.
• Refit all parts securely before using.
• Clearing blockages is not covered by your warranty.
BRUSH BAR – CLEARING OBSTRUCTIONS
• If your brush bar is obstructed, it may shut ‘OFF’. If this happens, you
will need to remove the blockage.
• Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before proceeding. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
• Beware of sharp objects when clearing obstructions.
• If you still cannot clear the obstruction, please follow the instructions
below to remove the base plate. This gives more access to the
obstruction. Alternatively, contact a Dyson expert on the Dyson
Helpline or visit the website. Clearing brush bar obstructions is not
covered by your warranty.
BASE PLATE – DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY
• Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug before proceeding. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
• Lie the machine on its front.
• Detach the red ‘C’ clip which is on the connection between the
cleaner head and the machine. It is quite firm, but do not pull it off
roughly. Use a constant, firm pressure.
• Pull the cleaner head away from the machine. Use a constant,
firm pressure.
• At each end of the cleaner head there are 2 levers:
– swing them out at right angles
– hinge the base plate open.
• Beware of sharp objects when clearing obstructions.
• To refit the base plate, hinge it closed.
• To secure the base plate push both levers back into position so they
are flush with the surface of the cleaner head.
• Refit the red ‘C’ clip onto the cleaner head. The flatter edge of the clip
fits against the cleaner head. It is easier to slide one lug into its slot
before the other.
• 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.
BRUSH BAR – TROUBLESHOOTING
• If the brush bar has stopped spinning, follow the instructions above
on clearing obstructions. Alternatively, contact a Dyson expert on the
Dyson Helpline or visit the website.
