CLEANING AND REPLACING THE FILTERS
CLEANING FILTERS
Regularly rinse and replace the filters to
maintain your vacuum's suction power.
To prevent damage from cleaning chemicals,
rinse filters with cold water only. Allow all
filters to air-dry for at least 24 hours before
reinstalling them to prevent liquid from being
drawn into electric parts.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use soap when
cleaning the filters.

MAINTENANCE
NOZZLE MAINTENANCE
SELF-CLEANING BRUSHROLL
If any hair is wrapped around the brushroll, continue vacuuming, using Carpet/Low Pile 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.
CLEANING THE SOFT ROLLER
Slide the Soft Roller access button forward
to release the Soft Roller.
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.
Hand wash the Soft Roller as needed.
Use only water, and allow it to air-dry
completely for at least 24 hours. Reinsert
the Soft Roller in the front of the nozzle
until it clicks into place.
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.

Questions and answers
I vacuumed up some baking powder and now I want to clean it out. How do I do that?
To clean baking powder out of the Shark POWERDETECT AZ4000 Series vacuum, follow these steps:
1. Turn Off and Unplug – Ensure the vacuum is turned off and unplugged from the electrical outlet.
2. Empty the Dust Cup – Remove the dust cup and empty any baking powder inside.
3. Check for Blockages – Inspect the hose, wand, and nozzle for any clogs and remove debris.
4. Clean the Filters – The HEPA filter should be cleaned every year, and the pre-motor filters should be replaced every 2.5 years. Remove the filters and tap off excess dust. If necessary, rinse with water and allow them to dry completely before reinstalling.
5. Clean the DirtDetect Sensors – If the DirtDetect Indicator is red, clean the sensors as hair and fine particles may obstruct them.
6. Reassemble and Test – Once everything is clean and dry, reassemble the vacuum and test its functionality.
Avoid vacuuming fine powders frequently, as they can clog filters and reduce suction efficiency.

Can you turn off the beater bar off where there is just suction on the new PowerDetect power lift away vacuum. On the Navigator Lift Away there is switch on the handle that disengages the beater bar. Does new PowerDetect vacuum have this capability?
The manual does not explicitly mention a switch to turn off the beater bar for suction-only mode. However, it does state that for maximum suction for above-floor cleaning, the vacuum should be set to Hard Floor mode, which may imply reduced or no brushroll activity.
