To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury, or property damage:
GENERAL WARNINGS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
-
Your vacuum cleaner may consist of a motorized nozzle, wand, hose, and/ or vacuum pod. This device contains electrical connections, electrical wiring, and moving parts that potentially present risk to the user.
-
Use only identical replacement parts.
-
Carefully observe and follow the instructions provided below to avoid improper use of the appliance. DO NOT use the vacuum for any purpose other than those described in this manual.
-
Before use, carefully inspect all parts for any damage. DO NOT use if any parts are damaged.
-
The use of an extension cord is
NOT recommended. -
This vacuum cleaner contains no serviceable parts.
USE WARNINGS -
This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way
and understand the hazards involved. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children. DO NOT allow the appliance to be used by children. DO NOT allow to be used as a toy. Close supervision is necessary when used near children.| -
Always turn off the vacuum cleaner before connecting or disconnecting any motorized nozzles or other accessories.
-
DO NOT handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.
-
DO NOT use without filters in place.
-
Only use Shark® branded filters and accessories. Failure to do so will also void the warranty.
-
DO NOT damage the power cord:
- DO NOT pull or carry vacuum cleaner by the cord or use the cord as a handle.
- DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. Grasp the plug, not the cord.
- DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the power cord, close a door on the cord, pull the cord around sharp corners, or leave the cord near heated surfaces.
-
DO NOT put any objects into nozzle or accessory openings. DO NOT use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.
-
DO NOT use if nozzle or accessory airflow is restricted. If the air paths or the motorized floor nozzle become blocked, turn the vacuum cleaner off and unplug from electrical outlet. Remove all obstructions before you plug in and turn on the unit again.
-
Keep nozzle and all vacuum openings away from hair, face, fingers, uncovered feet, or loose clothing.
-
DO NOT use if vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water.
-
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
-
DO NOT leave the vacuum cleaner unattended while plugged in.
-
When powered on, keep the vacuum cleaner moving over the carpet surface at all times to avoid damaging the carpet fibers.
-
DO NOT place vacuum cleaner on unstable surfaces such as chairs or tables.
-
Your Shark® vacuum may not be designed to stand up on its own. When taking a break from cleaning, you may need to lean it against furniture or a wall, or lay it flat on the floor. Using the vacuum for an application where the unit lacks stability may result in personal injury.
-
DO NOT use to pick up:
- Liquids
- Large objects
- Hard or sharp objects (glass, nails, screws, or coins)

-
Turn off all controls before plugging in or unplugging the vacuum.
-
Unplug from electrical outlet when not in use and before any maintenance or cleaning.
-
Hand wash with water only.
Washing with cleaning chemicals could damage the unit. -
During cleaning or routine maintenance, DO NOT cut anything other than hair, fibers, or string wrapped around the brushroll.
-
Allow all filters to air-dry completely before replacing in the vacuum to prevent liquid from being drawn into electric parts.
-
Make sure the dust cup and all filters are in place after routine maintenance.
-
If provided, secure the power cord around the two cord hooks during storage.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

MAINTENANCE
Self-Cleaning Brushroll Technology
The self-cleaning brushroll actively removes hair wrap as you vacuum. If you
run over a hard or sharp object or notice a noise change while vacuuming,
check for blockages or objects caught in the brushroll.
CLEANING THE BRUSHROLL
To open the brushroll garage, slide both release buttons on the floor nozzle
away from you, toward the back of the nozzle, then lift off the lid. Clear
away any objects or debris.
To close the brushroll garage, insert the 3 tabs on top of lid into the 3
slots in the nozzle, then push down on both sides of the lid until it clicks
securely into place.
NOTE: If any hair is wrapped around the brushroll, extending cleaning
time will allow the self-cleaning brushroll to remove it for you. If some
fibers remain wrapped around brushroll after continued use, open the brushroll
garage lid and carefully remove them.
CLEANING THE SOFT ROLLER
- To remove the Soft Roller from the nozzle, lift it out by the pull tap off any loose debris. Use a dry towel to wipe the Soft Roller clean, or to remove any debris caught in the teeth behind it.
- Hand wash the Soft Roller as needed. Use only water, and let air-dry completely for at least 24 hours. Reinsert the Soft Roller under the rubber bumper in the front of the nozzle until it clicks into place.

TROUBLESHOOTING
- Vacuum is not picking up debris. No suction or light suction.
- Check filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions for rinsing and air-drying the filters before reinserting in the vacuum.
- Dust cup may be full; empty dust cup.
- Check hose, hose connections, nozzle, wand, pod, and accessories for blockages. Clear any blockages found. See the Checking for Blockages section for more information.
- If any hair, string, or carpet fibers are wrapped around the brushroll, extend cleaning time to allow the self-cleaning brushroll to remove them. If some hair or fibers remain wrapped around brushroll after continued use, garage lid. Carefully clear away any debris or fibers. See Cleaning the Brushroll section for more information.
- Vacuum is hard to maneuver on high pile/plush carpets or lifts area rugs.
- Make sure selector switch is set to Hard Floor.
- Suction is powerful. Take care when vacuuming area rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges.
- To minimize suction, slide the Suction Control collar to MIN.
- Brushrolls do not spin.
- If the brushroll indicator light turns red, turn off the power. Slide the Suction Control collar to MIN, then turn the vacuum back on.
- If the brushroll indicator light is still red, there might be a clog. Immediately turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove pod from floor nozzle and clear any blockages. Reconnect nozzle, plug in vacuum, and turn on power.
- With the power on, recline the handle, which will automatically activate the brushrolls.
- Ensure that the selector switch is set to Carpet for brushroll to spin.
- If the brushroll indicator light is green and the headlights are flashing, this means that the brushroll garage lid is not properly closed. Press down firmly on both sides of the lid until it clicks into place.
- Vacuum turns off on its own or indicator light flashes red.
If your vacuum overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn off the motor. Follow these steps to restart:
1. Turn vacuum off and unplug it.
2. Empty the dust cup and clean the filters. See Emptying the Dust Cup and Cleaning and Replacing the Filters sections.
3. Check for blockages in hose, wand, nozzle, accessories, and inlet openings.
4. Allow unit to cool for a minimum of 60 minutes.
5. Plug in the vacuum and press the selector button to turn it on.
