  • If your Dyson V15 is pulsing or is not sucking up properly then it could be that it needs to cleaned or maintained. I show how to clean the vacuum to try and help with this problem.
    I also show how to access the menus on the vacuum where you can access other options.

    Thank you! So helpful. I find it humorous that Dyson would contact you to tell you what not to do while cleaning out the vacuum. Why don't they just produce their own official version and provide it like you, so we, the consumers, know how we can properly clean our equipment. We pay so much money to buy a cleaner from them, and their instruction manual is so minimal it is hardly useful. Their online tutorial is very lacking as well.

    • @sashacaba8698
      @sashacaba8698 Рік тому +5

      Agreed like their instructional videos are not even practical for everyday dirt
      If we clean according to their videos our vacuums would get messed up and then we’d have to replace them

    • @siosion8148
      @siosion8148 7 місяців тому

      I also disagree, when you watch the video from dyson and look into the manual for more than 1 minute, all cleaning is explained and even the secret menu will be no secret to you ;)

    If you have hardwood or tile floors use the green light soft brush attachment. The floors will look completely clean until you put the green light on them. Then you see all of the dust and hair that is really there. It’s amazing and now we vacuum in the dark with the green light on. 😊

    This was so helpful. Vacuum is looking great now and it started out pretty rough 😅 the brush roller does have little side traps that get hair rolled up in it. It was time consuming but I used a small blade to get them loosened up. I imagine there is a better way to do it, but just something you can maybe talk about in a next video. Cheers!

    I have the V11 that is a very similarly design bin and cyclone assembly. Once the outer bin is removed for cleaning, I use a combination of paint prush and a slightly damp micro-fibre cloth to clean the metal mesh part, and any dust off the seals. Ensure that the seals are dry. As for the upper-inside, where the cyclone bits are (you cannot get at those unless you take it apart), a good way to ensure loose dust comes out of that area is to hold it pointing down over a waste bin, and use the handle of a plastic brush to strongly tap the lower thinner section, keep tapping for at least a minute, rotating to different points on the lower end part, as the mechanical tapping action will result in a LOT of fine dust particle falling out of the uppe inside areas. Also, simetimes the bin will get stuck (stiction) on the rubber seals, and the big red lever will not always push it off (you have to rock sidways a bit while pulling to expose the little lock lever), when that happens, use a MINUTE smear of Silicone Grease on the seals (available from automotive shops), and wipe off any excess, otherwise it attracts dust! The ones that stick are the red seal on the bin and where it goes onto on the main part when put back on.

    In the UA-cam video that Dyson made on cleaning the filter, it says to partially fill the filter with water then give it a few shakes back and four, then put down and LEAVE FOR 24 HOURS before putting it back onto the vacuum. I found the rest of your video Very informative to especially since I have a longhair cat and a lot of hair does accumulate. Thank you for this in-depth video. It was quite informative. Thank you!

    My family use the machine to collect food powder, it made me mad because it will attract pest and become moldy when food powder keep storing inside. No one gonna clean it, and I do it myself, spent two days to get most of the food powder and dust out. Thank you so much for the video, I installed it back after cleaning and it works normally! I don’t know why but you sounds like a good father who are teaching us how to wash the machine, your voice make me feel safe and comfort. Can’t believe I can wash it by myself, I learn it from zero and proud of the result. Thanks again.

  • @tommyrq180
    @tommyrq180 Рік тому +2

    Thank you-very good tutorial. I would just add that on the vacuum head you need to check the internal air passage after removing the dust bin, that is, the central core hole PLUS the one side hole (on gray part above lower dust block) because they can get clogged with hair or other obstructions. Visually check (easiest to shine a light into the side hole and look through bottom hole) but the side hole and central hole require fingers or a flexible brush or long screwdriver to clear it if it’s clogged. Shining a flashlight (torch) into the side hole and viewing from the bottom works pretty well to ensure it’s clear. 😊

  • @giottodiotto1
    @giottodiotto1 Рік тому +3

    This video really shows the big flaw with al this " bag less" devices, maintenance is actually harder than with a regular paper bag vacuum, these devices eventually will clog up and than you need to do this ....wehn a paper bag is full you simply throw it in the bin, maybe once a year replace the HEPA filter, way more hygienic to use
    ( I use to have a Dyson myself,many years ago,thing was very loud,heavy,expensive and most of al clumsy, few years ago I switched to a nice and silent AEG, with paperfilterbags, work a charm, never go back to a Dyson, especially not for their prices

    I would really like to ask for some advice re: an issue I'm having with my new v15. The filter continually becomes clogged and says it needs to be cleaned. I realised today (after once again cleaning and drying, then having the clean filter alert come on after 30 seconds of use) that it appears the area the filter slots into is filled with dust (so a clean filter pops in, and immediately gets caked with dust). I'm not sure how I could go about cleaning this area, as I don't think you can disassemble it. Do you have any ideas on the best way forward? My v15 is very new (less than a month old), and this is really frustrating me.
    I'd be appreciative of any and all help.

    Thanks for the tips. This was really helpful. The only thing I would have done differently was to clean/brush all the dirt and dust off of the vacuum cleaner directly into a garbage bag or some sort of a bin so that one could throw it away or just flush it down the toilet or something. As you brush the dirt/dust off the vacuum with any brush some of the dusk particles tend to fly all over the place including your lungs. 🙈
