`instructions before using the
`machine for the first time.
`The wand cap should be
`closed when not using the
`tools.

`
`Using your DCO7
`
`WARNING
`• To reduce the risk of electric
`shock and personal injury,
`this appliance has a polarized
`plug (one blade wider than
`the other). This plug will fit in
`a polarized outlet only one
`way. If the plug does not fit
`fully in the outlet, reverse the
`plug. If it still does not fit,
`contact a qualified electrician
`to install the proper outlet.
`Do not force the plug into
`the outlet. Do not alter the
`plug in any way.
`
`CAUTION
`• Keep hair, loose clothing,
`fingers, and all parts of the
`body away from openings
`and moving parts.
`• This machine is fitted with
`a belt protection system.
`If any item becomes caught
`in the brushbar (e.g. rug
`fringe), you will hear a loud
`‘ratchet’ warning noise.
`To rectify, turn the machine
`off, disconnect from the
`electrical outlet and clear
`any obstruction (see page15),
`checking that the brush control
`is set to the correct position
`for the floor surface before
`re-starting the machine.
`
`Please note: This machine is
`intended for domestic use only.
`Fine dust such as plaster dust or
`flour should only be vacuumed
`in small amounts.

`How to clean your tools
`
`Attaching tools
`
`The brush tool, stair tool and
`crevice tool may be washed in
`warm water with a detergent.
`Rinse and air dry thoroughly
`before using. You may wipe the
`outside of the floor tool or turbo
`tool with a damp cloth, but do
`not submerge in water. Do not
`attempt to clean any tools when
`they are attached to the machine.
`
`1 Press the quick-draw hose
`release to detach the hose/
`wand from the machine.
`
`2 Slide the wand to the end of
`the hose.
`
`All Dyson tools can be used
`in the following ways:
`
`Wand mode
`
`Slide back the wand cap and fit
`one of the tools directly on to the
`wand handle.
`
`Using the tools
`
`Choosing the right tool
`
`The tools allow you to clean
`surfaces above the floor and
`to reach hard to clean areas.
`Ensure the machine is in an
`upright position before using
`tools.
`
`A Brush tool – with soft bristles
`to dislodge dust and cobwebs.
`The brush head twists to make
`cleaning easier.
`
`B Stair tool – with velour strips
`to pick up hairs and an
`agitating edge to lift the
`carpet. The tool channels
`airflow downward for better
`pick-up without sticking to
`upholstery. The head twists
`to make cleaning easier.
`
`C Crevice tool – reaches deep
`into nooks and crannies.
`Ideal for cleaning along
`baseboards and in tight
`corners. The tool channels
`airflow downward for better
`pick-up without sticking.
`
`D Animal turbo tool – the air
`powered brushbar ensures
`effective removal of pet hair
`and fibers in confined spaces
`such as stairs, upholstery
`and in the car. Supplied with
`certain models only, or
`available as an accessory for
`other models – contact the
`Dyson Helpline or
`www.dyson.com to order.
`
`E Floor tool – to reach under
`furniture. Adjustable for hard
`floors or carpets. Maintains
`perfect contact with the floor
`to optimize pick-up. Supplied
`with certain models only, or
`available as an accessory
`for other models – contact
`the Dyson Helpline or
`www.dyson.com to order.

`
`Using the tools
`
`Hose mode
`
`Reversed wand mode
`
`Stair cleaning
`
`Press the wand release button and
`remove the wand. Fit one of the
`tools directly on to the end of
`the hose. Use tools for confined
`spaces such as car cleaning.
`
`FOR YOUR SAFETY
`• When the hose is fully
`extended, grasp firmly by
`the hose, not the tool.
`
`Reverse the wand and click into
`the end of the hose, pressing
`the wand release button to
`ensure a correct fit. Fit one of
`the tools on to the end of the
`wand. Use tools for easier
`handling in hard to reach areas.
`
`Use the hose and stair tool or
`turbo tool for stair cleaning. The
`hose will stretch all the way to
`the top of an average staircase
`so you can leave your machine
`at the bottom.
`
`CAUTION
`• To avoid personal injury and
`to prevent the machine from
`falling when cleaning stairs,
`always place it at the bottom
`of the stairs.
