A second charging dock for your robot is provided for use in larger or multi- level homes. In larger homes, your robot may wander too far from the dock and have trouble finding its way back. Place the robot-only charging dock on the opposite side of your home. If the robot wanders too far, it can recharge on the second dock.
In multi-level homes, place the robot-only charging dock on the second floor so the robot can dock and recharge there.

recharge

Place the Charging Dock on a level surface with its back against a wall, in a space without obstructions, that can easily be accessed by your robot. Remove any objects that are closer than 3 feet (1 meter) from either side of the dock, or closer than 5 feet (1.52 meters) from the front of the dock. Plug the Charging Adapter into a wall outlet. The dock must be plugged in continually for the robot to find it. The robot will beep when it starts charging on the dock.

CHARGING

If the robot has no charge and cannot return to the charging dock, place it on the dock manually.
When the cleaning cycle is complete, or if the battery is running low, the robot will begin to search for the dock. If the unit doesn’t return to the dock, the battery charge may have run out.

CHARGING DOCK

Prior to first use, the lithium-ion battery must be charged completely, even if it comes with a partial charge.
Place the Shark ION Handheld onto the charging dock with the air-intake nozzle
in the cradle.

Smart Sensor Technology

Smart Sensor Technology allows your robot to navigate around obstructions as it cleans. During your first few cleanings, you may need to make some small adjustments to optimize your robot’s performance.

CORDS AND OBSTRUCTIONS

Before cleaning, clear away cords and other obstructions or block off the area with the included BotBoundary™ strips.

LOW-CLEARANCE FURNITURE

LOW-CLEARANCE FURNITURE

To prevent your robot from becoming trapped, use furniture risers or BotBoundary strips.

DOORWAY THRESHOLDS

DOORWAY THRESHOLDS

Your robot may have some trouble clearing some high thresholds. Block off high thresholds with BotBoundary strips.

RETURNING TO DOCK

Make sure the dock is set up as shown. If your robot roams too far, it could have trouble finding the dock. It may be helpful to block off part of your home with the included BotBoundary strips, or to add a second dock (available at sharkaccessories.com)

BotBoundary™ strips

To keep Shark ION Robot away from certain areas, such as pet bowls, fragile objects, power strips, or doorways, use the BotBoundary strips to quickly and easily create “no-go zones”.

Identify areas or objects you want the vacuum to avoid.

Cut

Cut the BotBoundary strip to the desired length (18˝/45cm minimum) so that it spans the length of the doorway or object you want to block off.

For your robot’s cliff sensors to work properly, all runners, rugs, or carpets must be at least
4 inches from any stairs (or extend over the edge of the stairs.)
If a runner, rug, or carpet edge is less than 4 inches from the stairs and can’t be moved, use a BotBoundary strip to block off the stairs.

For best results, make sure your BotBoundary strip is completely flat against the floor. Make a closed loop around an object, or place the strips between fixed objects, like door frames or the legs of a couch to create no-go zones.

NOTE: To prevent bumping, place strips at least 2 inches in front of the object you want to block off.
NOTE: You do not need to use BotBoundary strips on stairs. Your robot has cliff sensors that will prevent it from falling off any ledges or stairs.

BATTERY REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
This product uses a battery. When the battery no longer holds a charge, it should be removed from the 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 in accordance with 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 spent battery to an authorized recycling center or to retailer for recycling. Contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.
For more information on battery removal for disposal, please visit sharkclean.com/batterysupport.

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 center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-798-7398.
