Insertion/Removal: Rotate the odor dial to align the teal arrows. Remove the dial to access the odor cartridge for removal or replacement.
Low: Rotate the dial toward the Low position to decrease the intensity to the lowest level when the vacuum is in use.
High: Rotate the dial toward the High position for the highest intensity level when the vacuum is in use. This position is the recommended setting for optimal performance.

ODOR NEUTRALIZER TECHNOLOGY TIPS

Odor Dial Must be Installed for Vacuum to Function Properly

  • Remove odor cartridge from dial if you don't want the benefits of the odor neutralization technology.

Maintenance Required

  • Clean all filters as recommended under Cleaning Filters.
  • Empty the dust cup before storing your vacuum.
  • Replace the cartridge as recommended under Odor Cartridge Replacement.
  • Visit qr.sharkclean.com/odortech to learn more and purchase replacements.
  • If wet pet messes are cleaned up, thoroughly clean the vacuum.

Fragrance Strength Over Time

  • The intensity of the odor neutralizer technology's fragrance may diminish over time. It may also have no noticeable fragrance at all. This is natural and does not indicate the technology isn't working. Follow replacement instructions to ensure continued performance.

warning NOTES:

  • The odor dial needs to be installed for the vacuum to function properly, with or without the odor cartridge.
  • Odor Neutralizer technology effectively deodorizes while interacting with odors from inanimate sources.

MAINTENANCE

NOZZLE MAINTENANCE

SELF-CLEANING BRUSHROLL
If any hair is wrapped around the brushroll, continue vacuuming, using Carpet mode on a bare floor surface, a low-pile carpet, or a small area rug. This will allow the self-cleaning brushroll to remove the hair wrap and send it to the dust cup.
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.
If some fibers remain wrapped around the brushroll after continued use, clear them from the brushroll.


DEBRIS WRAPPED AROUND BRUSHROLL
Clean off any debris on the brushroll.

warning 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, carefully remove them.

CORD MAINTENANCE


To minimize the risk of power cord damage, DO NOT run the vacuum over the power cord. If this occurs, immediately shut off power to the vacuum and remove the cord from the brushroll or nozzle.

  1. DO NOT pull or carry vacuum cleaner by the cord or use cord as a handle.
  2. DO NOT unplug by pulling on the cord. Grasp the plug, not the cord.
  3. DO NOT close the door on the cord.
  4. DO NOT pull the cord around sharp corners.
  5. DO NOT leave the cord near heated surfaces.

CHECKING FOR BLOCKAGES


Detach hose from vacuum pod, and check hose and opening on back of pod for blockages.


Detach the wand from the pod, place the pod on its side, and check opening for blockages.


Detach dust cup from vacuum pod. Empty dust cup, remove debris from lint screen, and check for blockages.


Detach wand from floor nozzle and handle, and check both ends for blockages.


Detach the handle from the wand and the hose from the vacuum pod, and check openings for blockages.


NOZZLE HOSE BLOCKAGE
To access the nozzle hose, pinch the release touchpoints on the bottom of the nozzle, then lift the cover and clear any blockages.

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.
    (Refer to Checking for Blockages section for more information.)
  • If any string, carpet fibers, or hair is wrapped around the brushroll, extend cleaning time to allow the self-cleaning brushroll to remove it.
    • If some hair or fibers remain wrapped around brushroll after continued use, remove the floor nozzle cover and carefully cut debris with scissors and remove from brushroll. See Cleaning the Brushroll section for more information.

Vacuum lifts area rugs.

  • Make sure Power/Surface switch is set to Hard Floor (setting I).
  • Suction is powerful. Take care when vacuuming area rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges.

Brushroll does not spin in carpet cleaning mode.

  • If the Brushroll Indicator Light turns red, 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 turn on the brushroll.
  • Ensure that the Power/Surface switch is set to Carpet (setting II) for brushroll to spin.

Vacuum turns off on its own or indicator light flashes red.

This vacuum is equipped with a motor-protective thermostat. If your vacuum overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn the suction motor off. Perform the following steps to restart the thermostat:

  1. Turn vacuum off and unplug it.
  2. Empty dust cup and clean filters (see Emptying the Dust Cup and Cleaning and Replacing the Filters.).
  3. Check for blockages in hose, accessories, and inlet openings.
  4. Allow unit to cool for a minimum of 45 minutes.
  5. Plug in vacuum and turn it on.

Vacuum is emitting air that smells bad.

  • Dust cup may be full; empty dust cup. Empty dust cup after each use for optimal odor neutralizer technology performance.
  • Check filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions for rinsing and air-drying the filters before reinstalling them.
  • Check to make sure odor cartridge is installed in the dial and the dial is installed in the nozzle.
  • Check the odor neutralizer technology dial on the nozzle to see what setting is enabled.
  • If odor neutralizer technology dial is at any setting from Low to High and the cartridge has been installed for 6 months or longer, consider replacing it.
  • If the odor cartridge is still emitting a scent but you dislike it, consider turning the intensity down, or reinstall the dial in the nozzle without the cartridge.
  • If the odor neutralizer technology cartridge is not emitting a scent, consider replacing it.
