USING YOUR SHARK

USE YOUR CORDLESS VACUUM
TO CLEAN BARE FLOORS,
CARPETS AND RUGS.
1 Place your foot lightly on the top

MAXIMIZING THE LIFE OF YOUR
BATTERY
1
To enhance battery life, this vacuum
is equipped with an advanced feature
that will shut off the vacuum when
the battery is almost fully discharged.
If the vacuum shuts off while in use,
charge the unit until the complete
oval around the power button is
illuminated, indicating a full charge.
2
Charge the vacuum for 6 hours
before initial use. After initial use,
each recharge will take 3 to 6 hours.
A complete oval around the power
button will illuminate when the charge
is complete.
3
The precision charger monitors the
batteries so you don't have to. A
complete charge can take as little as
3 hours, but may take up to 6 hours
because the charger monitors battery
properties to extend battery life.
Leaving the unit in the charger past
the complete charge time will NOT
harm the batteries.
4
If the vacuum has never been used
or has not been used for an extended
period of time, it will take 3 to 5
complete charge and run down cycles
to realize the full operational time of
the vacuum.
5
Do not store or charge in areas of high
temperature or humidity.
6 Use only the charge adapter supplied
with this unit, marked with "For
SV1100 series Models Only". If other
chargers are used, the battery can fail
causing damage to the battery, to the
vacuum, or to personal property.
