reasoning capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
by a responsible person concerning use of the appliance to ensure that they can use it safely.
2. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children. Children should be

4. Suitable for dry locations only. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

or dropped into water, do not use and contact the Dyson Helpline.

15. Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything
that may reduce airflow.
