Taking your machine out of the country of origin

We’ll do everything we can to help if you decide to take your machine abroad, but we don’t recommend it for the following reasons:

1. The machine has only been tested to comply with the safety regulations of the country of origin
2. Some countries run a different electricity supply.
3. Different plugs are used in different countries, and Dyson advise against using a transformer or plug adaptor.
4. We believe it’s important to offer excellent aftersales support. Not all Dyson territories are able to support all the product ranges, and may not be able to supply parts or repair these products.

It is for these reasons the guarantee expressly states that the machine is only to be used in the country of origin.

To do this, simply place plug the charging dock into the room you want to clean, place the robot on the dock, and press the power button. The robot will then clean your room and return to its dock once completed to charge.

If the robot begins cleaning from a dock placed in an area with Wi-Fi and during its clean moves into an out of range area, this should not cause a problem to the clean. The robot will return to the dock once the clean is completed . However please be aware that if the robot goes out of Wi-Fi range during the clean, you will not be able to remotely control it with the Dyson Link app.

Power cycle

You can power cycle the robot to reset the Wi-Fi. To do this, place the robot on the charging dock, ensuring the battery light illuminates when the robot is on the dock.

Lift the robot off the dock for 10 seconds, then place back on the dock and refresh the Dyson Link app.

If you have gone through the above checks and recommendations, and the robot is now appearing online, please select 'Resolved' .

Otherwise, if you are satisfied that the above criteria and recommendations have already been met but you are still experiencing an issue, please select 'Issue not resolved'.

Problem setting up the app

Please ensure that the device (e.g. iPhone or Android) has a stable internet connection and that you have download the latest version for the Dyson Link app from the Google Play store or Apple iTunes.

The Dyson Link App is compatible with Apple iPhone, Apple iPod touch, Apple iPad and Android mobile phones only.

You will be unable to download the app if you are not running a compatible version of your phone's operating system. Please check the Google Play store page or Apple iTunes store page for a list of compatible devices.

Please also ensure you have sufficient space on your device for the app.

Wi-Fi connection issues

It is important to ascertain if the issue is with Alexa/Echo, or with the Dyson product. Try asking Alexa a general question, such as 'Alexa, what is the weather for tomorrow?'

Operate your Dyson machine manually - use the remote or controls to turn the purifier on, or press the power button on the robot.

Echo’s connectivity status is indicated by the power LED on the bottom rear of the device, with white meaning good and orange denoting no WiFi connectivity. If you are experiencing intermittent connectivity or non-existent WiFi connectivity with your Amazon Echo, here's what to try.

First, reboot your router and turn your Echo off and on again, waiting at least 10 minutes to give time for them to reconnect. Whilst waiting, you can also try re-positioning your Echo away from devices that may be interfering with the signal.

You can also reduce the congestion on your WiFi network by removing unused devices from the network.
If you have a dual-band modem, you may effectively have two networks set up. Try switching the device from the 2.4GHz frequency to the 5GHz frequency or vice-versa.

5GHz promises less interference, better speeds and a more stable connection and it is often less congested.

Alternatively, 2.4GHz can better for devices that may be further away from the router, especially if the signal has to pass through walls.

Move your Echo to higher ground, like a bookshelf, to avoid signal interference.

Installing and setting up Alexa

To get started with Amazon Echo, place the device in a central location (at least eight inches, or 20cm, from any walls and windows). Plug the power adapter into Amazon Echo and then into a power outlet. The light ring on Amazon Echo turns blue and then orange. When the light turns orange, Amazon Echo greets you.

Next, you'll need to download the Alexa app. Go to the app store on your mobile device and search for 'Alexa app'. Then select and download the app. Launch the Alexa app and ensure the account details are filled out. In the Alexa app, open the top left menu. Select 'Settings', then 'Set up a new device'. On the top of your Echo, press and hold the 'Action' button for five seconds. The light ring turns orange and Echo will connect to your mobile device.

Back on the Alexa app, select home WiFi network and enter your home WiFi password. Select 'Connect'. A confirmation message will appear in the app.

Tip: If your Amazon Echo doesn't connect to your WiFi network, unplug and then plug the device into a power outlet to restart it. If you still have trouble, reset your Amazon Echo to its factory settings and set it up again.

Try talking to Alexa. You'll find that you can now use your Amazon Echo device. To get started, say the 'wake word' (Alexa) and then speak naturally to Alexa. Once you've set-up the Dyson skill, remember to use the trigger word (Dyson), pre-empted by the command 'ask/tell'. For example, "Alexa, ask Dyson purifier to turn on".

Your Amazon Echo device is set to respond to the wake word "Alexa" by default, but you can use the Alexa app to change the wake word at any time. In the app, go to 'Settings', select your Amazon Echo device and then select 'Wake Word'.

Connecting for different product combinations:

If you have the Dyson Link app and Alexa app both installed, and your Dyson machine and Amazon Echo are both connected, but your Dyson skill is not enabled:

Ask Alexa to enable the Dyson skill, or search for Dyson in the skills section of the Alexa app. Then select the 'Enable skill' button. Allow the Alexa skill to access your Dyson Link app account. Enter your Dyson Link app account details and select 'Allow' on the confirmation screen.

If you have the Dyson Link app installed, your Dyson machine is connected but the Alexa app is not installed and your Amazon Echo is not connected:

First, check the WiFi signal strength where your Amazon Echo is positioned, by using a device known to be working. Remember to place your Amazon Echo at least eight inches away from any walls or windows, in a central location. Ensure the power adapter is plugged in and switched on.

The light ring on the Amazon Echo will turn blue then orange. When the light turns orange, Alexa greets you. Next, download the Alexa app to set-up your Amazon Echo.

In the Alexa app, open the main menu and select 'Settings' and then 'Set up a new device'. Press and hold the 'Action' button on your Amazon Echo for five seconds. The light ring will turn orange and Echo will connect to your mobile device.

Next, select your WiFi network and enter your WiFi password. Then press 'Connect'. A confirmation message will display in the app.

Controlling multiple machines

If you have more than one Alexa-controlled Dyson machine, your voice commands should make it clear which one you want to control. You can include a word like 'purifier', 'fan' or 'robot' in your command so Alexa knows which one you mean.

If you have two or more similar machines, like a purifier in your kitchen and another in your bedroom, you can assign location labels to differentiate your machines.

Navigate to your machine's settings by selecting the cog icon on your machine's status screen. From here, select 'Your machine's settings'. If you're using a purifier, select 'Room name' and choose the appropriate location. If you're using a robot, choose 'Robot name' and select a room from the predefined list.
