IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this vacuum cleaner has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the 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 OR INJURY:
GENERAL WARNINGS
• 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.

necessary when used near children.
This is not a toy.
• 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:
a) DO NOT pull or carry vacuum
cleaner 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 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:
a) Liquids
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 m atc hes)
f) Flammable or combustible
materials (lighter fluid, gasoline,
or kerosene)
g) Toxic materials (chlorine bleach,
ammonia, or drain cleaner)
• DO NOT use in the following areas:
a) Poorly lit areas
b) Wet or damp surfaces
c) Outdoor areas
d) 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)
• 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.
