Overview
Overview of your Dyson washing machine
Contrarotator™
The only 2-drum wash action.
Conventional washing machines may seem convenient, but their poor performance
lets you down. So James Dyson asked his engineers to experiment with every
imaginable way of washing to design a better washing machine.
Along the way, Dyson engineers made a surprising discovery: washing by hand
gave better wash results than single drum machines. Because the laundry is
constantly on the move, it is manipulated and flexed. This opens the fabric to
the detergent, releasing dirt quickly and effectively. To replicate the
movement of washing by hand, Dyson engineers designed two aligned drums and
engineered them to rotate in opposite directions at the same time: laundry is
constantly on the move, manipulated and flexed.

Location
Every Dyson washing machine is tested before it leaves the
factory. As a result, there may be some dampness or water in
the machine.
- The machine should not be installed in a location where the temperature may drop below freezing.
•The machine should not be installed in a bathroom.
• The machine must be installed on a secure and flat surface.
Soft floors, such as carpet or carpet tiles, are not suitable.
The layout of the drainage taps and power socket and their distance from the machine are illustrated below. The water inlet hoses, drainage hose and electrical mains lead must be positioned carefully to avoid damage or kinks when the machine is in use. The machine can be connected to a standpipe, under-sink pipe connection or other drainage system, but the critical dimensions must be adhered to.
Important Drainage, water supply and electricity
The washing machine comes with:
- 2 inlet hoses
- 1 drainage hose hook
- 1 Dyson spanner
- 1 drainage hose at the back of the machine
The above items are found in the drum unless stated otherwise.
Drainage
You can alter the direction of the drainage hose to the left or right.
- To change the direction of the machine’s drainage hose, squeeze open the retaining clip using a pair of pliers and hold it open while you rotate the hose.
- Ensure the hose is inserted properly before releasing the clip.
- Thread the drainage hose through the hose hook and adjust the protruding end to a distance of 30mm. The hose hook has a small retention hole that can be used to secure the hose in position.
Do not use the hose hook for under-sink connections.
When installed with a standpipe or under-sink connection, ensure that the water outlet end of the drainage hose is no lower than 450mm above ground level. Position the hose so that none of it lies higher than 600mm above ground level (refer to section 01 for 5 position).
NB: Failure to comply with these dimensions could cause the machine to malfunction.
Water supply
- Connect your machine to the water supply by hand, using the hoses supplied. Only tighten by hand, do not use a spanner.
- Ensure the water pressure is between 0.4 and 5 bar.
Do not:
- connect the machine to a mixer tap. Hot and cold water supply
- Attach the blue inlet hose to the cold inlet tap and the red hose to the hot inlet tap, and turn on water supply.
Cold water only supply
- If there is no hot water supply, attach the cold and hot hoses to the machine as normal. Then, attach both hoses to a Y-piece (which can be bought from most DIY stores) and finally connect the Y-piece to the cold inlet tap.
- Once all connections have been made, turn on the tap(s) to check that there are no leaks, tighten by hand if necessary.
Electrical installation
Warning: This machine must be earthed
-
Any electrical work required to install the washing machine should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
-
Before using your machine, check that the plug and sockets match, and check that the voltage in your home corresponds to the machine’s voltage.
This information is on the rating plate (see section 1 01). -
The machine should be plugged into an earthed socket which can be switched on & off, and that is easily accessible after installation.
-
Do not use an extension cable or plug adapter.
-
If the supply cord or plug are damaged disconnect the machine from the socket outlet immediately. The supply cord must only be replaced by Dyson or its appointed agents, as special purpose tools and service techniques are required.
-
If the plug supplied needs to be removed it should be cut off and disposed of safely. Under no circumstances should the severed plug be inserted into a socket outlet as this will present an electric shock hazard. 1

Operation
Loading the washing machine
- Ensure the machine is plugged into the mains and switched on at the socket. Check that the water supply is on at the mains.
- Open the outer and inner doors.
- Check the drums are empty before placing the sorted laundry into the washing machine.
- Close both doors, making sure that both have ‘clicked’ shut.
It is important not to overload the machine. Maximum loads for each programme
are shown in the table section 9 02.
Tests have shown that overloading can reduce the wash performance and may
cause damage to your machine.
Detergent use
-
To open the soap tray, press the hand on the soap tray.
Do not try to pull out the soap tray without first pressing it. -
Add detergent to the compartment marked 2 for all the main wash programmes.
-
For a pre-wash option, add detergent to the compartment marked 1.
-
Fabric conditioner can be added to the compartment marked to the level indicated, do not overfill.
-
Push the soap tray to close, ensuring it ‘clicks’.
Detergent use
- Use only powder suitable for automatic washing machines.
Type of laundry | Type of detergent |
---|---|
Brightly coloured/multi coloured | Colour care |
Whites | Conventional biological or non-biological |
Wool, silk | Non biological wool/silk |
Detergent format
Place wash balls and nets directly into the drums of the washing machine.
Do not:
- place wash balls or tablets in drums when using the start delay option (selected models only). This could fade coloured laundry if the detergent touches the fabric before the water soaks the laundry.
- place detergent into the drums when using a pre-wash as it will be used before the main wash. Instead, use the soap tray.
- cover wash balls or tablets with laundry, as this can inhibit the dispersal of detergent.
- stop the wash for long periods of time once it has started. The detergent may not have had time to disperse and concentrations may damage the laundry.
Detergent quantity
- CRO2’s drum capacity is larger than conventional washing machines.
- This larger load will require a slight increase in detergent. We recommend the following doses:
CRO2 with a half load | CRO2 with a full load |
---|---|
Powder 1 scoop | |
Liquid 1 dose | |
Tablets 2 tablets |
*For maximum dosage based on very heavy soil and hard water please refer to manufacturer’s instructions on detergent pack.
