Maintaining your machine
Why it's important to clean your filter regularly
The filter captures microscopic dust, which can accumulate and affect performance. Help maintain suction by washing the filter at least once a month, or more frequently if used heavily.
How to clean your filter
-
1. Remove your Dyson filter
Remove your filter by unscrewing the post-motor filter from the machine.
-
2. Remove excess dust
Tap your filter lightly on the side of the sink or in the bin, to remove any loose dust and debris.
-
3. Rinse filter
Wash your filter with warm tap water – gently rubbing it with your hands. Don't use detergents.
-
4. Give it a firm shake
Fill your filter with warm tap water. Cover the open ends with your hands and shake firmly to remove the dirt. It's important not to agitate the filter media, i.e. the pleated elements. Repeat until the water runs clear, and then firmly shake the filter to remove all excess water.
-
5. Leave to dry for 24+ hours
After washing, leave to dry for at least 24 hours near airflow like a fan or open window. Place the larger end down. The filter must be completely dry before replacing, or it could damage the motor. Don't dry in a tumble dryer, microwave or near a naked flame.
-
Emptying and cleaning the clear bin
Overfilling the bin can reduce suction and affect performance. To maintain suction, empty as soon as debris reaches the MAX marker. Cleaning the bin removes dust build-up and helps optimize performance.

Removing blockages
Your LCD screen will alert you if there's a blockage in your machine's airways. On-screen animation shows you which airflow pathways to check.

The LCD screen on your machine will remind you when it's time to clean your filter. This will usually be around once a month, but may be more frequent if you use your machine more heavily. After cleaning the filter, always leave it to dry for at least 24 hours. You must ensure it's completely dry before refitting. We recommend following the cleaning instructions and cleaning by hand.
