Operating Instructions
- Power On/Off: Press and hold the trigger to activate the vacuum. Release the trigger to turn it off.
- Suction Modes: The Dyson V7 Absolute features two power modes. The standard mode provides up to 30 minutes of fade-free suction for everyday cleaning. For tougher tasks, slide the switch to 'MAX' mode for increased suction power, though this will reduce battery runtime.
- Cleaning Surfaces: Use the appropriate cleaner head for your surface. The soft roller cleaner head is ideal for hard floors, while the direct-drive cleaner head is designed for carpets and rugs.
- Handheld Mode: To convert to handheld mode, press the red release button to detach the wand and attach your desired accessory directly to the main unit.

Maintenance
- Emptying the Bin: To empty the clear bin, hold the vacuum over a trash can and pull the red lever upwards. The bin base will open, releasing the dirt. Push the lever down to close the bin.
- Washing the Filter: The HEPA filter should be washed at least once a month. Twist the filter counter-clockwise to remove it from the main unit. Wash under cold tap water until the water runs clear. Squeeze and twist to remove excess water. Allow to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting. Do not use a tumble dryer or place near a naked flame.
- Clearing Blockages: If suction power drops, check for blockages in the cleaner head, wand, or main unit. Remove any obstructions carefully.
- Cleaning Brush Bars: Periodically remove the brush bars from the cleaner heads and clear any tangled hair or debris.
