3. Operating the Vacuum

4. Attachments
The Dyson V11 Plus comes with a range of attachments designed for specific cleaning needs:
- High Torque Cleaner Head: Automatically adapts suction power to different floor types for deep cleaning.
- Soft Roller Cleaner Head: Ideal for hard floors, picking up fine dust and large debris without scratching.
- Mini-Motorized Tool: Designed for removing pet hair and ground-in dirt from upholstery and tight spaces.

5. Maintenance
Dustbin Emptying
To maintain optimal suction, empty the dustbin regularly, especially when debris reaches the 'MAX' line. The hygienic 'point and shoot' mechanism allows for easy and mess-free emptying directly into a trash bin.
Filter Cleaning
The Dyson V11 Plus features a washable HEPA filter. For best performance, wash the filter at least once a month with cold water. Ensure the filter is completely dry (allow at least 24 hours) before reinserting it into the vacuum. The LCD screen will provide reminders when filter maintenance is due.
