READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR SHARK® SONIC
DUO™ PRO CARPET & HARD FLOOR CLEANER.

This appliance 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 attempt to defeat this safety feature.

Eye irritant. Should some of the Shark® branded cleaners and polishes be rubbed or splashed into the eyes, wash out thoroughly with water. If irritation continues, contact a physician.
In case of ingestion, drink 16 FL. oz. (2 cups) of water.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY:
1.Use the system only for its intended use.
2.DO NOT use outdoors.
3.DO NOT leave the appliance unattended when plugged in. Always turn the appliance off (O) and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet when not in use and before servicing.
4.Turn off all controls before unplugging.

14.DO NOT put any objects into openings. Do not use with any opening that is blocked.
15.DO NOT put hands or feet under the Sonic Duo™ Pro.
16.Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of the body away from openings and moving parts.
17.Use ONLY on flat, horizontal surfaces. Do not use on walls, counters or windows.
18.To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock - use ONLY Shark®’s cleaning, polishing and carpet cleaning solutions intended for use with this appliance.
19.DO NOT add any cleaning solutions in the Shark® Sonic Duo™ Pro other than
Shark®’s Low Moisture - No Rinse - Carpet Cleaner and Hard Floor Cleaner. The Hard Floor Polish should never be run through the Sonic Duo™ Pro. It will cause clogging. Use of other scented perfumes, oils or any other chemicals added to the solution or to the Reusable Bottle used in this appliance may damage or clog the unit and void the warranty. If you live in a hard water area, we recommend using distilled water to dilute the Low Moisture - No Rinse - Carpet Cleaner and Hard Floor Cleaner for better performance.
20.DO NOT mix other cleaners with Shark®’s Low Moisture - No Rinse - Carpet Cleaner and Wood & Hard Floor Cleaner as this could affect the effectiveness of the appliance.
21.DO NOT use the Sonic Duo™ Pro to clean up or absorb flammable or combustible materials.
22.NEVER LEAVE THE SONIC DUO™ Pro IN ONE SPOT ON ANY SURFACE FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME WHEN THE CLEANING OR POLISHING PAD IS ATTACHED OR WITH THE APPLIANCE TURNED ON AS THIS WILL DAMAGE YOUR FLOORS.
23.When cleaning the Sonic Duo™ Pro, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet, and clean with a dry or damp cloth. Do not pour water or use alcohol, benzene or paint thinner on the unit.
24.Unplug the appliance before attaching or removing the pads.
25.Extreme caution should be exercised when using this appliance to clean stairs.
26.Never use the Sonic Duo™ Pro without the carpet pad, cleaning pad or polishing pad attached.
27.Keep your work area well lit.
28.Store the Sonic Duo™ Pro indoors in a cool, dry place.
29.To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket (circuit) as the
Sonic Duo™ Pro.
30.If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, an extension cord rated a minimum of 15 ampere, 14 gauge cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
31.This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts. See instructions for servicing of double-insulated appliances.
WARNING: Your Sonic Duo™ Pro is designed to clean hard floor and carpet surfaces. Do not use on wood or tile floors that are highly worn, unfinished or have a wax or oil finish.
Surfaces that have been treated with wax or some no wax floors may be damaged by the cleaning and polishing solutions therefore it is always recommended to test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. You should always check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer. Always check with the carpet manufacturer or distributer before using the Shark® Activating Pretreater Carpet Stain & Odor Remover or
the Low Moisture -No Rinse - Carpet Cleaner. To determine the colorfastness of any carpet -especially with reds or blues - take a clean, moist towel and gently rub a small area in an inconspicuous area. If color comes off the towel, you may need to have the carpets cleaned professionally.

Cleaning Your Carpets
The Sonic Duo™comes with a Reusable Bottle with a “Purple” cap and label. This bottle is to be used with the Low Moisture –No RinseCarpet Cleaner. The Sonic Duo™ also has a second Carpet Mode (II) that should be used when cleaning carpets. Please note that not all carpets react to the Sonic Duo the same way. Some carpets will require more time and cleaning solution than others.
REGULAR CLEANING
Step 1:
1Vacuum your carpets and/or area rugs to remove any loose dirt, dust, or debris that may have accumulated in the carpet.
Step 2:
2Attach the Carpet/Rug Cleaning Pad to the bottom of the Sonic Duo™. This pad has a “Purple” trim and tag that says Carpet/Rug Cleaning Pad. Attach the pad as shown in (Fig. 6) – the tag should be positioned toward the back of the Sonic Duo™.
3Remove the Reusable Bottle by holding it and pulling up (Fig. 7). Remove the cap by turning it counterclockwise.
4Fill the Reusable Bottle with the “Purple” cap and label with water until the “1:7 Water” fill line and then with the Low Moisture –No RinseCarpet Cleaner until the “Solution” fill line. (Fig. 8)
Always fill with water first and then add the cleaning solution so avoid foaming and ensure accuracy when measuring.
