BATTERY REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
This product uses a rechargeable and reusable lithium-ion battery. When the
battery no longer holds a charge, it should be removed from the hand vacuum
and recycled. DO NOT incinerate or compost the battery.
When your lithium-ion battery needs to be replaced, dispose of it or recycle
it under local ordinances or regulations. In some areas, it is illegal to
place spent lithium-ion batteries in the trash or in a municipal solid waste
stream. Return the spent battery to an authorized recycling centre or to the
retailer for recycling. Contact your local recycling centre for information on
where to drop off the spent battery.
For more information on battery removal for disposal, please visit
sharkclean.com/batterysupport.
LITHIUM-ION BATTERY MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF PROPERLY
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) seal on the lithium-ion
battery indicates that the costs to recycle the battery at the end of its
useful life have already been paid by SharkNinja. In some areas, it is illegal
to place spent lithium-ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste
stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC, in cooperation with SharkNinja and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent
lithium-ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural
resources by returning the spent lithium-ion battery to an authorized
SharkNinja service centre or to your local retailer for recycling. You may
also contact your local recycling centre for information on where to drop off
the spent battery or call
