4. Blockage procedure
1. Check filters
Filter life is dependent on the
amount the vacuum cleaner is
used but they must be replaced
at least every 3 months.
Replace both submicro filters with
DYSON part number DUP 03-33-002.
3. Check wand/hose
2. Clean shroud
4. Check belt & soleplate
5. Check cleaner head & flaps
6. Check yellow bin inner
Wipe shroud holes free
of all dust/debris.
Check air duct behind
bin for debris.
Check that yellow bin
inner is in place,
especially if you have
washed it. (See ‘How to
use’ section in your
instructions).
Do not remove cone seal.
Check cone seal is in
place: failure to do so
could result in clogging
of the pre-filter and
damage to the motor.
The lip of the cone seal
should sit over the rim
of the yellow bin inner.
Remove three screws to
undo soleplate.
Lift soleplate to remove.
Check condition of belt
and replace if necessary.
(See 'Changing the belt'
section in your
instructions).
Check that soleplate
passage is clear and
remove blockages if
necessary.
