  1. Press the cyclone release catch at the tip of the Dyson DC07 cyclone handle. The cyclone forms the upper portion of the bin.

  2. Lift the bin free of the base of the Dyson DC07 vacuum.

  3. Place the lower half of the bin inside a garbage bag and surround the bin with the bag. While you can empty the bin directly into a garbage can, enclosing a garbage bag around the bin reduces the amount of dust that can escape.

  4. Pull the release trigger on the underside of the cyclone handle to open the bin base and release the contents of the bin into the garbage bag.

  5. Shake or tap the side of the bin to ensure all contents are emptied.

  6. Feel the bin base through the bag. Close the base shut before removing the bin from the bag.

  7. Seal the bag to prevent dust from escaping. Reinstall the bin onto the DC07 vacuum cleaner.

Warnings

Always disconnect your Dyson from the electrical outlet before emptying its bin. Disconnecting the vacuum first prevents any possibility of electrical shock.
