To maintain optimum performance, keep your lens clean. Only clean the lens when the cleaner head is not attached to your machine.

                   

Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe the lens.

Is there anything else we can help with?

Unless prompted to do so, do not press the trigger when checking any part of the machine. Operating the machine while it is partially dismantled could result in personal injury.

Alerts

The screen will alert you when your machine needs your attention.

                   

The alert will flash for approximately 5 seconds, proceeded by a playable graphic. Follow the instructions on screen to maintain performance.

Your vacuum counts and measures the size of dust particles as you clean.¹ The LCD screen shows what’s been sucked up, displaying real-time scientific proof of a deep clean.²

The particle count is available in all power modes and with all attachments. Like our clear bin filling with dust, you can see debris increase on-screen as you clean.

                   

Settings menu

Control the settings on your machine using the selection button. To enter the settings menu, press and hold the button until the menu screen appears. Tap to scroll through the options available.

                   

Particle count and graph

You can turn the measuring and counting of particles on and off. Turning off the particle count and graph will stop your machine automatically adjusting suction power.

Adjust reactive suction power sensitivity

Use the selection button to change how sensitive the particle count is. This will change how your machine automatically reacts to dust particles.

Exit settings menu

Tap to scroll through the selection menu. Select 'Exit menu'.

¹Tested to EN 60312-1:2017 CL5.1, CL5.2 and CL5.3 for hard floors, crevices and carpets in Boost mode.

²Quantity of dust displayed on-screen varies depending on usage.

Please select the next step

As dust enters your vacuum, the particles are continuously counted and categorise in size from 10-500 microns (µm) and above. Real-time results are displayed in the particle count.

Yellow bar

10µm – particles as small as allergens and pollen

                   

Orange bar

60µm – particles as small as microscopic dust and skin flakes

                   

Pink bar

180µm – particles as small as dust mites and fine sand

                   

Purple bar

500µm – particles as small as sugar and fleas¹

                   

¹Particle sizes and densities vary. Examples shown may occur within one or more displayed size range. Some particles have a range including sizes smaller than 10µm, which may not be detected.

Is the machine working as expected?

Low battery

Fully charge the machine.

                   

The machine should be charged with the battery attached to the machine.

                   

Please select the next step

Please ensure the battery is charged to 100% after every use.

Charge the machine

Connect to the charger either directly or in the docking station.

                   

The blue LEDs on each side of the battery should light up.

                   

Which lights are showing?

The blue LEDs – one on each side of the battery – will flash on and off during charging.

                   

When the battery is charged, both LEDs will light for 5 seconds, then go out.

The screen will also show the battery charge level at 100%.

                   

The machine can take up to 4.5 hours to fully charge.

Has this resolved the problem?

Pull the trigger

Remove the charger from the machine and pull the trigger.

The LED lights should be on constantly when in use.

If the LED lights blink on/off for approximately 10 seconds when the trigger is pulled, please select 'LED lights blinking'.

Do the blue LED lights appear on either side of the battery?

Dock charging

If the machine is being charged through the docking station, please disconnect the charger and connect it directly into the machine.

Please check household electrics or use an alternative plug socket.

Do the blue LED lights now appear on either side of the battery?

Remove the charger

Press and hold the trigger for 10 seconds.

Does the display screen show a low battery indicator?

The blue LEDs – one on each side of the battery – will flash on and off during charging.

When the battery is charged, both LEDs will light for 5 seconds, then go out.

The screen will also show the battery charge level at 100%.

                   

The machine can take up to 4.5 hours to fully charge.

Has this resolved the problem?

Automatic cut out

Large items may block the machine or tools. If any part becomes blocked or the filter needs washing, the machine may automatically cut out.

                   

Motor is pulsating

This will happen after the motor pulses a number of times (i.e. switches on and off in quick succession) and the blockage indicator will light. Leave to cool down before looking for blockages.

Be careful not to pull the 'ON' trigger while looking for blockages. Operating the machine while it is partially dismantled could result in personal injury.

Remove the tools

Remove all tools and accessories from the machine e.g. wand, cleaner head, crevice tool etc. Please ensure the bin is empty before continuing with any checks.

                   

Press and hold the trigger for 10 seconds.

Does the alert still appear?

Check for blockages

Check both ends of the wand for blockages and remove as necessary.

                   

Reattach the cleaner head, tool or accessory to the wand. Reattach the wand to the machine.

Press and hold the trigger for 10 seconds.

Has this resolved the problem?

Remove the bin

Hold the machine with the bin in a downwards position. Firmly push the red bin release button. The bin will slide down opening the bin base. The bin base will not open if the red button is not pushed down fully.

                   

Press the red button located on the bin runner to release the bin and slide the bin off the runner.

                   

Gently tap the side of the cyclone over a bin. This will remove any fine dust clogged up in the cyclone. Using the combination tool, clean the shroud to remove any debris around the cyclone.

Check the cyclone for blockages and remove as necessary.

                   

To refit the clear bin

Insert the spine into the bin runner.

                   

Close the clear bin by pushing the bin base upwards until it clicks into place.

                   

Press and hold the trigger for 10 seconds.

Has this resolved the problem?

Our cordless vacuum filters are engineered to capture microscopic particles. Over time, these can build up in the filter and reduce performance. By washing the filter once a month you can help maintain suction power and prevent the machine from pulsating.

This indicates the filter needs washing.

Please follow the steps in the video.

Find the text version of the step-by-step guide instead, under "Has this resolved the problem?".

Leave the filter unit to dry completely in a dry environment with good airflow, for a minimum of 24 hours. Ensuring it is completely dry before refitting.

Press and hold the trigger for 10 seconds.

Power modes

The machine has three power modes for different tasks. The overall run time is displayed on the digital display screen in minutes and seconds and will vary between each of the three power modes.

                   

Run time

The overall run time can increase and decrease depending on the power mode, floor type and tool being used. Any change to the run time can take up to 30 seconds to appear on the digital display.

Eco mode

Maximum run time for longer cleans all around your home.

                   

Auto/Med mode

The optimum balance to clean all floors.

Attach your cleaner head or Hair screw tool to activate Auto mode, which automatically adapts power between carpets and hard floors.

Suction power automatically adapts to dust levels.

                   

Boost mode

Designed for intensive cleaning on ground-in dirt.

                   

Eco mode

Up to 60 minutes

Med/Auto mode
Up to 40 minutes

Boost mode
Up to 12 minutes

The overall run time can increase and decrease depending on the power mode and tool being used.

Please ensure the battery is charged to 100% after every use.

When the machine is placed on charge it enters an idle state, this reduces all power consumption ready for the next use. Due to this reduction in the power, when the machine is removed from charge and powered on for the first time it can display an incorrect run time. This is nothing to be concerned about. The machine will assess the charge capacity and current usage within 30 seconds, displaying the correct time on the digital display.

To achieve the maximum run time, the machine must first be calibrated. The machine should be fully charged approximately five times. Between charges, use the machine until it has no battery remaining.

Where you have additional click-in batteries, we recommend alternating and charging all click-in batteries regularly to prolong battery health.

Has the machine been fully charged?

The Dyson V15™ Detect battery and monitoring system work together to gauge how much run time is remaining. The system calculates run time using an algorithm that ‘learns’ how your machine works over time. To get the best experience, we recommend fully charging your machine after every use. This helps the battery and monitoring system's algorithm to more accurately calculate and display remaining run time.

The actual run time of your machine remains unaffected while the algorithm learns to more accurately gauge remaining power.

The battery is designed to be left on charge permanently, and this will ensure that the machine is fully charged when it's next used. It will take up to 4.5 hours to fully charge your machine. Once the battery is fully charged, your machine won't use any more electricity.

Has this resolved the problem?

If your machine continues to cut out even though run time remains on the screen, we recommend fully charging your machine, then using it continuously until the battery runs out. This should be completed within one cleaning session, but the trigger doesn't need to be held down throughout. We advise using Auto/Med mode for this clean. The more this process is repeated, the more accurate the algorithm becomes.

Please select the appropriate option

Damp or musty

A damp or musty smell is caused when dust in the cyclone has come into contact with water.

It may not be a direct contact with water, for example when vacuuming pet hair that is slightly damp, this moisture will combine with the dust in the cyclone causing the smell.

Additionally the smell may occur if the filter goes back into the machine wet.

Only the filter and the brush bar from the Laser Fluffy™ cleaner head can be washed. The bin can be cleaned with a damp cloth only. Washed and cleaned parts must be completely dry before being refitted to the machine.

How to install the dock - step by step

The docking station must be mounted in accordance with regulations and applicable codes/standards (state and local laws may apply). Dyson recommends the use of protective clothing, eyewear and materials when installing the docking station.

Unpack the docking station, charger and installation leaflet.

Select the location for the docking station and ensure that there is no pipework (gas, water or air), electrical cables, wires or ductwork directly behind the mounting location. Follow the instructions in the installation leaflet.

Secure the backplate using the appropriate fixings.

Position the jack plug on the front casing.

Make sure the charger cable is secured neatly behind the front casing.

Firmly push down the jack cover to secure the jack plug.

Clip the front casing onto the backplate, and push firmly to secure.

Click the tools into place.

Place the machine in the docking station.

                   

Plug the charger into the mains electricity supply. Switch on (if necessary) to charge the battery.

The machine will need to be fully charged before first use.
