1: Check that the Dyson's brushbar knob is turned to the "Carpets" setting for vacuuming non-delicate and raised pile carpet. Vacuuming carpet on the "Bare floor" setting usually leaves a telltale single wheel mark on the pile, and pickup is severely limited.
2:Locate the removable filter on the side of the vacuum. It will be marked with a raised circular representation.
3:Press down on the release button with your thumb as you lift filter housing up and out
4:Examine the filter for debris. Wash the blue foam and yellow framed filter in cold water. (See Tips section.) Let dry for 12 hours. Do not wash the outer filter housing that snaps into the vacuum; simply wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Replace the filter when completely dry.
5:Locate the airway inspection valve on the opposite side of the vacuum. Press the release button as you lift the valve up and away from the machine.
6:Remove any debris or clogs you find inside.
7:Use a soft cloth to clean up lighter debris and completely clear the airway valve.
8:Tip the Dyson vacuum over to find the U-bend at the back of the unit. Press the release button as you pull the U-bend down and away from the machine.
9:Inspect the U-bend and remove debris. Be sure to line up the release button as you snap the U-bend back into place.
10:Check all removable pieces to be sure they are attached properly and snapped correctly into place. The soleplate should be flush with the cleanerhead.
