How to clean my Dyson DC21 - Dyson Vacuums

Hi there, it's Jack at Dyson.

If your DC21 Motorhead doesn't seem to be picking up as well as it should be, you may need to wash the lifetime pre-filter. In normal use this should be washed at least once every 3-6 months using cold water without detergent. Allow at least 12 hours for both parts of the filter to dry completely before replacing them in your machine.


You may also want to follow the steps shown in our online Support guide to make sure the Motorhead floor tool, wand and hose are free of any obstructions: http://www.dyson.co.uk/support/dc21/dc21-motorhead/my-machine-is-not-working/does-the-brushbar-turn-with-the-power-on-dc20
