User manual DYSON DC22 MOTORHEAD

[. . . ] Do not close a door on the cable, or pull the cable around sharp edges or corners. Arrange the cable away from traffic area and where it will not be stepped on or tripped over. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, such as petrol, or use in areas where they or their vapours may be present. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes. [. . . ] If this happens, we recommend vacuuming in ‘hard floor’ mode and consulting with the flooring manufacturer. € Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown in this Dyson Operating Manual, or advised by the Dyson Helpline. Do not use any lubricants, cleaning agents, polishes or air fresheners on any part of the appliance. € 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. € Fine dust such as plaster dust or flour should only be vacuumed in very small amounts. € Do not use the appliance to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper clips, etc. € 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 and rinsed it out with cold water (see ‘Cleaning the clear bin’). € Before vacuuming highly polished floors, such as wood or lino, first check that the underside of the floor tool and its brushes are free from foreign objects that could cause marking. € Do not push hard with the floor tool when vacuuming, as this may cause damage. € On waxed floors the movement of the cleaner head may create an uneven lustre. If this happens, wipe with a damp cloth, polish the area with wax, and wait for it to dry. € 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, push the release button at the back of the carrying handle, as shown. € To minimise dust/allergen contact when emptying, encase the clear bin tightly in a plastic bag and empty. The British Allergy Foundation is a UK national charity with the aim of improving awareness, prevention and treatment of allergies. € Press the small silver button on the back of the clear bin and separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin. € Do not use detergents, polishes or air fresheners to clean the clear bin. € Clean the cyclone shroud with a cloth or dry brush to remove lint and dust.
