  3. Check for blockages in the wand

  4. Check the cleaner head

  5. Check the bin seal and cyclone

  6. Check the hose for cracks

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my Dyson lose suction after a few minutes?

Intermittent suction loss is usually caused by a partially blocked filter restricting airflow. The machine may also be thermal-cutting due to overheating from a blocked airway.

How often should I wash my Dyson filter?

Dyson recommends washing the filter at least once a month. If you vacuum frequently or have pets, wash it every two weeks.

Can I use my Dyson without a filter?

No — operating a Dyson without a filter can damage the motor and voids the warranty. Always ensure the filter is installed and dry before use.
