The British Allergy Foundation considers that
this product may in proper use reduce
exposure to both House Dust Mite (Der p 1)
and Cat Allergen (Fel d 1). It is strongly
recommended that a sensitive person should
take care when emptying the clear bin
TM
. We
recommend the manufacturers' emptying
instructions should be strictly followed.
Assessment carried out by BAF indicate that an individual's
exposure can be reduced but this does not mean that an
individual's allergic symptoms will necessarily diminish. BAF's
opinion applies only to the products and allergen stated. The
product should be used only for its intended purpose and strictly
in accordance with the manufacturers' instructions at all times.
Exposure to allergen can be dangerous. If you believe that you
may suffer from an allergy you should seek medical advice. The
British Allergy Foundation is a national charity (Charity Reg. No.
1003726) founded in 1991 with the aim of improving
awareness, prevention and treatment of allergy.
The Foundation continually strives to help sufferers to help
themselves, often seeking to avoid or reduce exposure to
relevant allergens. The Seal of Approval scheme forms a part of
this initiative.

Every Dyson vacuum cleaner comes with
a 2 year guarantee (for the UK/Ireland
there is an option to purchase an
extended warranty for a further 3 years).
If you have a query about your Dyson,
just call the Dyson Customer Helpline,
with your serial number and details of
where/when you bought the cleaner.
Most queries can be solved over the
telephone by one of our factory-trained
Helpline staff.
If your cleaner needs attention from our
engineers, we aim to have it repaired
and tested within 3 working days.
•Check that your electricity supply corresponds
to that shown on the rating plate. The
appliance must only be used as rated.
•If the supply cable of the appliance is
damaged, disconnect the appliance from
the socket outlet immediately. The supply
cable must be replaced only by Dyson Ltd.
or their appointed agent, as special
purpose tools and service techniques are
required.
•Do not use the cleaner if the cable or plug
are damaged or if the cleaner has been
damaged, dropped or has come into contact
with water or any other liquid. In these cases,
contact the Helpline.
•When vacuuming, certain carpets may
generate small static charges in the clear bin.
These are entirely harmless and are not
associated with the mains 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.
•Do not continue to use the cleaner if any part
appears to be faulty, missing or damaged.
•Do not carry out any maintenance work other
than that shown in this manual and do not put
anything into the openings or moving parts of
the machine.
•Only use parts produced or recommended
by Dyson: failure to do so could invalidate
your guarantee.
