FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - THE BALL DYSON

Comment nettoyer le filtre de mon Dyson The Ball ?

Pour nettoyer le filtre, retirez-le de l'aspirateur, rincez-le à l'eau froide jusqu'à ce que l'eau soit claire, puis laissez-le sécher complètement pendant au moins 24 heures avant de le remettre en place.

Mon Dyson The Ball ne s'allume pas, que faire ?

Vérifiez que l'aspirateur est bien branché et que la prise fonctionne. Si l'appareil ne s'allume toujours pas, vérifiez si le câble d'alimentation est endommagé ou si le fusible a sauté.

Pourquoi mon Dyson The Ball perd-il de l'aspiration ?

Une perte d'aspiration peut être causée par un filtre sale, un tube obstrué ou un bac à poussière plein. Vérifiez et nettoyez ces éléments pour restaurer la performance.

Comment vider le bac à poussière de mon Dyson The Ball ?

Pour vider le bac à poussière, appuyez sur le bouton de vidage situé sur le bac, puis inclinez-le au-dessus d'une poubelle pour libérer la poussière.

Mon Dyson The Ball fait un bruit étrange, que dois-je faire ?

Un bruit étrange peut indiquer un objet bloqué dans les brosses ou le tuyau. Vérifiez et retirez tout obstruction, puis testez à nouveau l'aspirateur.

Comment changer la brosse de mon Dyson The Ball ?

Pour changer la brosse, localisez le bouton de libération sur le support de la brosse, appuyez dessus et retirez la brosse. Insérez la nouvelle brosse en place jusqu'à ce qu'elle s'enclenche.

Quelle est la durée de vie de la batterie sur mon modèle sans fil ?

La durée de vie de la batterie peut varier, mais en général, elle dure environ 20 à 40 minutes selon le mode d'utilisation. Assurez-vous de charger complètement la batterie pour une performance optimale.

Mon Dyson The Ball sent mauvais, que faire ?

Un mauvais odeur peut provenir d'un filtre sale ou de débris coincés dans l'aspirateur. Nettoyez le filtre et vérifiez le bac à poussière pour toute accumulation qui pourrait causer l'odeur.

Comment puis-je obtenir des pièces de rechange pour mon Dyson The Ball ?

Les pièces de rechange peuvent être commandées directement sur le site web de Dyson ou auprès de revendeurs agréés. Assurez-vous de connaître le modèle exact de votre aspirateur.

Le câble d'alimentation de mon Dyson The Ball est trop court, existe-t-il des rallonges ?

Il n'est pas recommandé d'utiliser des rallonges avec les aspirateurs Dyson. Si le câble est trop court, envisagez de réorganiser votre espace de nettoyage ou d'opter pour un modèle sans fil.

Où puis-je trouver le manuel d'utilisation de mon Dyson The Ball ?

2 Using your DC15

CAUTION

• Please note: this machine is intended for domestic use only. Fine dust such as plaster dust or flour should only be vacuumed in very small amounts.
• The brushbar will automatically stop if it becomes obstructed.
• Do not press the cyclone release button while carrying the machine or it could fall and cause injury.
• Ensure the cyclone is secured to the machine.
• Do not shake the machine while carrying or it could fall and cause injury.

Carrying your DC15

Ensure machine is upright before carrying.

Use the carry handle at the top of the cyclone to lift.

Using your DC15

Plug in and press transparent yellow ON/OFF switch.

Press stabilizer firmly to release cleaner head and pull handle towards you.

Use stabilizer only - do not stand directly on cleaner head to release vacuum.

Ensure stabilizer wheels are fully retracted and click in place or brushbar will not operate.

tip Do not apply weight to handle while pressing stabilizer.

IMPORTANT

• The brushbar will reset to "ON" each time you start the machine and put it in the cleaning position.
• If the brushbar stops during use, please refer to the clearing blockages section.
• Ensure stabilizer wheels are fully locked in place before releasing the machine.
• Consult your flooring manufacturer's recommended instructions before vacuuming your flooring, rugs, and carpets. Some carpets will fuzz if a rotating brushbar is used when vacuuming. If this happens we recommend vacuuming in bare floors mode and consulting with your flooring manufacturer.

Brush control

To turn the brushbar OFF for bare or delicate flooring, rugs, and carpets, put the machine in the cleaning position, and press the red button. Press it again to restart brushbar.

tip Ensure the stabilizer clicks into place before vacuuming.

Small movements of the wrist will create a zigzag motion in the cleaner head for easier cleaning around furniture.

When finished, push the handle firmly beyond the upright position to drop the stabilizing wheels.

Ensure stabilizer wheels are fully locked in place before releasing the machine.

Tip Twist and turn your wrist like you are turning a doorknob to make the most of DC15's maneuverability.

4 Using your DC15 tools

IMPORTANT

• Ensure machine is in upright position before using tools.
• To protect your floors, the brushbar will not rotate when the machine is in an upright position.
• Ensure hair and loose clothing are kept clear of wand cap when machine is switched on.
• Ensure wand cap is closed, unless using with tools.
• Powerful suction can cause the hose to 'pull back' - please take care when using the wand.
• To avoid personal injury and to prevent the machine from falling when cleaning stairs, always place it at the bottom of the stairs.

Do not use your vacuum cleaner outdoors or on wet surfaces. Vacuum may be used inside a garage only when used with the Model 08909 Dyson Car Cleaning Kit accessories. If used in a garage, care should be taken to wipe the soleplate and wheels with a dry cloth after vacuuming to clean off any sand, dirt, or pebbles that could damage delicate floors.

Wand mode
