how to clean dyson handheld

To clean a Dyson handheld vacuum, follow these main steps:

1. Unplug or switch off the vacuum before cleaning.
2. Empty the bin by pressing the red release button, hold it downward, and open the base to release dust and debris.
3. Wipe the inside of the bin with a damp lint-free cloth and let it dry completely before reinserting.
4. Remove the filter(s), tap them gently to remove excess dust, then wash them with warm water only (no detergent).
5. Shake the filters firmly to remove excess water and leave them to dry for at least 24 hours in a well-ventilated area; do not use heat sources to dry.
6. Remove and clean the brush bar(s) of hair and debris. Some brush bars can be rinsed with cold water but must be dried completely before reinserting.
7. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling to avoid motor damage.

These steps will maintain suction power and extend the vacuum’s life. Always consult your model-specific manual for any additional instructions or differences.
