Dyson DC25-ANIMAL user manual

The Dyson DC25 was first released in the year 2008.

The "GREY" button on a Dyson Ball is typically the release button. It is often located near the swivel mechanism of the vacuum cleaner, allowing you to release the handle or wand from the vacuum's body. This button is used when emptying the dustbin, attaching accessories, or when the vacuum is not in use for storage purposes.

There could be several reasons why your Dyson DC25 Animal is experiencing a loss of suction in the head. Here are a few possible causes and troubleshooting steps:
1. Blockage or clog: Check the brush bar and surrounding areas for any obstructions, such as hair, string, or debris. Remove any blockages and ensure that the brush bar is free to rotate.
2. Dirty filters: Dirty filters can restrict airflow and reduce suction. Make sure to clean or replace the filters as per the manufacturer's instructions. The DC25 Animal model has washable filters that can be cleaned and reused.
3. Belt issues: The brush bar is powered by a belt, and if the belt is worn out or improperly fitted, it may affect the suction performance. Check the belt for signs of damage or wear and replace it if necessary.
4. Height adjustment: If your Dyson has an adjustable cleaner head, it could be set at the wrong height. Make sure the cleaner head is correctly adjusted for your flooring type to ensure optimal suction.
5. Motor or hose blockage: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, there may be a blockage or fault in the motor or hose. In this case, it's advisable to contact Dyson customer support or take the vacuum to an authorized service center for further diagnosis and repair.
Always refer to the user manual for specific instructions related to your Dyson model, as different models may have slight variations in troubleshooting steps.

The reset switch on a Dyson DC25 is a safety feature that is designed to protect the vacuum cleaner's motor in the event of an overload or blockage. If the vacuum becomes blocked or excessively overheated, the reset switch will conveniently trip, cutting off power to the motor. To reset the switch, simply locate it on the side of the vacuum cleaner near the power button or on the brush bar housing, and press it to restore power. This allows you to continue using the vacuum after addressing the blockage or letting it cool down.
