Important Safety Instructions - Shark AI Robot RV2000 Series Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE • FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
If the charging cable plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT force into outlet or try to modify to fit.
WARNING
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:
1.
This appliance consists of a robotic
vacuum and charging dock with power
supply. These components contain
electrical connections, electrical wiring,
and moving parts that potentially present
risk to the user.
2. Before each use, carefully inspect all
parts for any damage. If a part is damaged,
discontinue use.
3. Use only identical replacement parts.
4. This robotic vacuum cleaner contains no
serviceable parts.
5. Use only as described in this manual.
DO NOT use the robotic vacuum cleaner
for any purpose other than those
described in this manual.
6. With the exception of filters, DO NOT
expose any parts of the robotic vacuum
cleaner to water or other liquids.
USE WARNINGS
7. 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.
a) Children shall not play with the
appliance.
b) Cleaning and user maintenance shall
not be made by children without
supervision.
8.
Always turn off the robotic vacuum
cleaner before inserting or removing the
filter or dust bin.
9. DO NOT handle plug, charging dock,
charging cable, or robotic vacuum
cleaner with wet hands. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by
children without supervision.
10. DO NOT use without robot dust bin and
filters in place.
s h a r kc l e a n . c o m
11. DO NOT damage the charging cord:
a) DO NOT pull or carry charging
dock by the cord or use the cord as
a handle.
b) DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord.
Grasp the plug, not the cord.
c) DO NOT close a door on the cord,
pull the cord around sharp corners,
or leave the cord near heated
surfaces.
12. 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.
13. DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner
airflow is restricted. If the air paths
become blocked, turn the vacuum
cleaner off and remove all obstructions
before turning on the unit again.
14. Keep nozzle and all vacuum openings
away from hair, face, fingers, uncovered
feet, or loose clothing.
15. DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner
is not working as it should, or has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water.
16. DO NOT place vacuum cleaner on
unstable surfaces,
17. When manually moving the robot to a
new location, it must be placed at least
1.5 feet (45 cm) away from any stairs or
cliffs.
18. DO NOT use to pick up:
a) Liquid spills
b) Large objects
c) Hard or sharp objects (glass, nails,
screws, or coins)
d) Large quantities of dust (drywall
dust, fireplace ash, or embers).
DO NOT use as an attachment to
power tools for dust collection.
e) Smoking or burning objects (hot
coals, cigarette butts, or matches)
f) Flammable or combustible
materials (lighter fluid, gasoline,
or kerosene)
g) Toxic materials (chlorine bleach,
ammonia, or drain cleaner)
19. DO NOT use in the following areas:
a) Outdoor areas near fireplaces with
unobstructed entrances
b) Spaces that are enclosed and may
contain explosive or toxic fumes
or vapors (lighter fluid, gasoline,
kerosene, paint, paint thinners,
mothproofing substances, or
flammable dust
c) In an area with a space heater
d) Near fireplaces with unobstructed
entrances
e) On wet or slippery surfaces
20. Turn off the robotic vacuum cleaner
before any adjustment, cleaning,
maintenance or troubleshooting. Note: in
the OFF (O) position, the robot still uses
a small amount of power.
21. Allow all filters to air-dry completely
before replacing in the robotic vacuum
cleaner to prevent liquid from being
drawn into electric parts.
22. DO NOT modify or attempt to repair the
robotic vacuum cleaner or the battery
yourself, except as indicated in this
manual. DO NOT use the vacuum if it has
been modified or damaged.
23. Remove all spilled or leaked liquid from
the base or floor, as it could lead to risk
of electrical shock.
24. For your robot's cliff sensors to work
properly, all runners, rugs, or carpets
must be 16 inches away from any stairs
(or it must be continuous and extend
over the edge of the stairs). If a runner,
rug, or carpet edge is less than 16 inches
from the cliff edge or stairs, then the use
of a BotBoundary® strip is required to
block off the stairs and any cliff edge.
BotBoundary strips are not included
with your robot but can be purchased by
contacting Shark Customer Service at
1-888-228-5531.

BATTERY USE
25. The battery is the power source for
the vacuum. Carefully read and follow
all charging instructions.
26. To prevent unintentional starting, ensure
the vacuum is powered off before picking
up or carrying the vacuum. DO NOT
carry the appliance with your finger on
the power switch.
27. Use ONLY the Shark® charging dock
XDCKRV2000 and use only battery
RVBAT850A. Use of batteries or battery
chargers other than those indicated may
create a risk of fire.
28. Keep the battery away from all metal
objects such as paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, or screws. Shorting the battery
terminals together increases the risk of
fire or burns.
29. Under abusive conditions, liquids may be
ejected from the battery. Avoid contact
with this liquid, as it may cause irritation
or burns. If contact occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek
medical help.
30. Robotic vacuum cleaner should not be
stored, charged, or used at temperatures
below 50°F (10°C) or above 104°F
(40°C). Ensure the battery and vacuum
have reached room temperature before
charging or use. Exposing the robot
or battery to temperatures outside of
this range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
31. DO NOT expose the robotic vacuum
cleaner or battery to fire or temperatures
above 265°F (130°C) as it may cause
explosion.
32. Non-rechargeable batteries cannot
be recharged.
