My Dyson Dc23 Has A Blockage In The Canister. How Do I Clean It?

My Dyson DC23 has a blockage in the canister. The machine appears to have lost all suction but sucks fine once the canister is removed.  I have what appears to be dust/powder buildup on the inside of it and have brushed/washed away what I can, however, I can't seem to open the canister enough to get rid of the blockage. Is it safe to run water through it to rinse it?
