TWO (2) YEAR LIMITED GUARANTEE

When a consumer buys a product in the UK, they get the benefit of legal rights relating to the quality of the product (your “statutory rights”). You can enforce these rights against your retailer. However, at Shark we are so confident about the quality of our products that we give you an additional manufacturer’s guarantee of up to two years (one year, plus an additional year upon registration).
Offer valid only in the United Kingdom. These terms and conditions relate to our manufacturer’s guarantee only – your statutory rights are unaffected.

The conditions below describe the prerequisites and scope of our guarantee. They do not affect your statutory rights or the obligations of your retailer and your contract with them.

Shark® Guarantees

Your Shark unit constitutes a sizeable investment. Your new hairdryer needs to work properly for as long as possible. The guarantee it comes with is an important consideration – and reflects how much confidence the manufacturer has in its product and manufacturing quality.
Every Shark machine comes with a free parts and labour guarantee. Our customer service helpline (0800 862 0453) is open from 9.00am to 6.00pm Monday – Friday. It’s free to call and you’ll be put straight through to a Shark representative. You’ll also find online support at
sharkclean.co.uk

How do I register my Shark® guarantee?

Purchases made from the Shark website are automatically registered for the two year extended guarantee.
You can register your guarantee online within 28 days of purchase. To save time, you’ll need the following information about your hairdryer:

Date you purchased the unit (receipt or delivery note).
To register online, please visit sharkclean.co.uk

IMPORTANT

The guarantee will only cover your product from the date of purchase.
Please keep your receipt at all times. Should you need to use your guarantee we will need your receipt to verify the information you have supplied to us is correct. The inability to produce a valid receipt may invalidate your guarantee.

What are the benefits of registering my free Shark® guarantee?

When you register your guarantee we’ll have your details to hand if we ever need to get in touch.
You can also receive tips and advice on how to get the best out of your Shark unit and hear the latest news about new Shark® technology and launches. If you register your guarantee online, you’ll get instant confirmation that we’ve received your details.

How long are new Shark® machines guaranteed for?

Our confidence in our design and quality control means that your new Shark unit is guaranteed for up to two years (initial one-year guarantee and the additional one-year extension upon registration).

What is covered by the free Shark® guarantee?

Repair or replacement of your Shark machine (at Shark’s discretion), including all parts and labour. A Shark guarantee is in addition to your statutory rights as a consumer.

What is not covered by the free Shark® guarantee?

Normal wear and tear of wearable parts (such as accessories). Replacement parts are available for purchase at sharkclean.co.uk
Damage caused by misuse, abuse, negligent handling, failure to perform required maintenance or damage due to mishandling in transit.
Damage caused by maintenance not authorised by Shark.

What happens when my Shark® guarantee runs out?

Shark does not design products to last for a limited time.
We do appreciate that there may be a desire for our customers to want to repair their unit after the guarantee has lapsed. In this case please contact our customer service help line and ask about our out of guarantee repair program, on 0800 862 0453

Where can I buy genuine Shark® spares and accessories?

Shark spares and accessories are developed by the same engineers who developed your Shark unit. You’ll find a full range of Shark spares and replacement parts/accessories for all Shark machines at Sharkclean.co.uk
Please remember that damage caused by the use of nonShark spares may not be covered under your guarantee.

TROUBLESHOOTING & ERROR CODES

MAINTENANCE/CLEANING

Reduction in Airflow, Overheating

A change in airflow or air power, airflow blockages, and/or visible buildup on the inlet at the bottom of the unit indicates your unit needs to be cleaned. We recommend using a new toothbrush to clean off the filter at the bottom of the unit.

OVERHEATING

Hair dryer is overheating or shuts off.

This unit is equipped with a temperature-protective thermostat. If for some reason your hair dryer overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn the unit off. To prevent power-down recurrence, unplug the hair dryer and set it aside to cool, or cool down using the cool shot button during use. Overheating may result if the unit is powered on for a long duration, or can indicate a blockage or dust buildup.

We recommend using a new toothbrush to clean off the filter at the bottom of the unit. If overheating continues to occur, contact Customer Service at 0800 862 0453.

If you are experiencing a different error code, contact Customer Service at 0800 862 0453
