  • Frequently asked questions

    How long does the battery take to fully charge?

    A full charge takes up to 4.5 hours. 

    Can I leave my vacuum on charge?

    The battery is designed to be left on charge permanently, and this will ensure that the vacuum is fully charged when it's next used. Once the battery is fully charged, your machine won't use any more electricity. 

    Should I fully charge my vacuum after every use?

    We recommend fully charging your machine after every clean. This helps your vacuum's battery and monitoring system's algorithm to more accurately calculate and display remaining run time. 

    Does the screen use up the battery?

    The LCD screen only uses up to 1.5 watts of power, which won't noticeably impact run time.

    Does this machine connect to the Dyson Link app?

    Your machine works independently and doesn't connect to the Dyson Link app. 

    How often should I clean the filter?

    The screen on your machine will remind you when it's time to clean the filter. This will usually be around once a month, but may be more frequent if you use your machine heavily.

    What's the difference between Auto mode and Med mode?

    Both modes provide the optimal balance of power and run time. Auto mode only works with the High Torque cleaner head to automatically adapt between different floor types. Med mode is displayed instead of Auto mode when all other tools are attached.

    How do I change the screen’s language?

    Press and hold the selection button beneath the screen for between 5 and 10 seconds to view the language list. Then press the selection button to scroll through the list. When you reach your preferred language, press and hold the button for between 2 and 4 seconds. If you've selected the wrong language, press and hold the button when the cross is displayed to return to the language list. Or to confirm the language, press the button to scroll to the tick and then press and hold.
