A clean vacuum cleaner means a clean home. If you own a Dyson vacuum cleaner<\/a>, make sure to clean it regularly to protect its sensitive parts from getting damaged by stubborn grime. It’s important to know how to clean a Dyson vacuum cleaner the right way.<\/p>\n The cleaning process starts with emptying the dust canister – but that’s not all. The container deserves a good cleaning. You must also clean the filter, brush bar, and hose, besides wiping the whole body of the unit.<\/p>\n The process of cleaning Dyson vacuums can remain simple and swift even if you’re not a cleaning expert. Let’s take a look at the steps in detail.<\/p>\n Before you learn how to clean a Dyson vacuum, you must first assemble everything you’ll need to get the job done. Here’s a list –<\/p>\n To clean your Dyson regularly, you can take the following steps –<\/p>\n The first step is easy and a no-brainer. You need to turn the Dyson off and unplug it from the power socket.<\/p>\n Then, once you’ve made sure that the device is not on, start taking it apart and removing the vacuum hose, crevice nozzles, and other accessories. Don’t forget to remove the dust canister by pressing the red bin release button that Dyson vacuum cleaners usually have.<\/p>\n Hold the dust canister of your Dyson vacuum cleaner directly above the trash can. Then, press the release button so that the bottom of the canister opens and lets the collected trash fall straight into the trash can.<\/p>\n If required, gently shake and tap the canister to get rid of as much dirt stuck inside as possible. After that, detach the canister from the Cyclone and clean it with cold water.<\/p>\n You can use a brush to loosen the dirt – and then rinse it before setting it to dry. Here’s a video<\/a> that shows how to clean Dyson V6’s canister.<\/p>\n Next, examine the Cyclone section of the Dyson and see if there’s any debris or mess stuck to some part. An air compressor can help you clear this.<\/p>\n The compressed air will help loosen the excess dust and ease the cleaning process. In the absence of an air compressor, you can use a hair dryer in cold mode, but it won’t be as effective.<\/p>\n Then, using a damp microfibre cloth, wipe the Cycle gently to remove all the dirt and dust particles from the machine. Check out the video<\/a> to learn how to clean Dyson Cyclones.<\/p>\n Every Dyson vacuum cleaner is equipped with a HEPA filter that captures microscopic particles. To clean it<\/a>, you have to locate the Dyson vacuum filter.<\/p>\n It is usually near the Cyclone. In some models, there are two Dyson filters inside the side housing or ball.<\/p>\n Unscrew and loosen the Dyson filter and hold it under running water to rinse it. Dyson recommends that you should avoid harsh detergent or soap<\/a> for cleaning the vacuum filter.<\/p>\n Keep rinsing the washable filter under warm tap water until the water runs clear. Then, wipe it with a dry cloth and set it aside.<\/p>\n Give it a day to completely dry before you attach it back. Here<\/a> is a look at how to clean the Dyson V7 filter to help you get an idea of the process.<\/p>\n The brush roll of your Dyson vacuum picks up pet fur, hair, trapped dust, etc., from hard floors and carpets. These strands often get entangled in the bristles and around the bar.<\/p>\n Dust and fuzz often make the tangles in all the hair even worse. So, you must eliminate these from the brush. For that, you will need to use a flathead screwdriver to detach the brush.<\/p>\n In the absence of a flathead screwdriver, you can use a coin. Then, start pulling out the strands around the brush – and use a pair of scissors to release the difficult strands and knots.<\/p>\n Use a damp cloth and a brush to clean more thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before putting the brush back. Here’s a video<\/a> on how to clean a Dyson DC40 brush.<\/p>\n The hose and the wand of your Dyson vacuum need thorough checking and cleanup every now and then. Otherwise, you will end up with blockages in them.<\/p>\n Once you have separated the hose and the wand from the vac’s body, look through them and pull out anything inside by hand. If that doesn’t seem possible, use a stick, long brush, damp microfibre cloth, etc., to trap and remove the debris inside.<\/p>\nHow to Clean A Dyson Vacuum Cleaner – Step-by-Step Guide<\/h2>\n
