WARNING

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, injury, or property damage:

GENERAL WARNINGS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Robotic vacuum cleaner consists of a

robotic vacuum and charging base with power supply. These components contain electrical connections, electrical wiring, and moving parts that potentially present risk to the user.

2. Before each use, carefully inspect all parts for any damage. If a part is damaged, discontinue use.

3. Use only identical replacement parts.

4. This robotic vacuum cleaner contains no

serviceable parts.

5. Use only as described in this manual. DO NOT use the robotic vacuum cleaner

for any purpose other than those described in this manual.

6. With the exception of ﬁlters, DO NOT expose any parts of the robotic vacuum cleaner to water or other liquids.

USE WARNI NGS

7. This appliance can be used by persons

with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. a) Children shall not play with the

appliance.

b) Cleaning and user maintenance shall

not be made by children without supervision.

8. Always turn o the robotic vacuum cleaner before inserting or removing the ﬁlter or dust bin.

9. DO NOT handle plug, charging base, charging cable, or robotic vacuum cleaner with wet hands. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

10. DO NOT use without robot dust bin and ﬁlters in place.

11. DO NOT damage the charging cord: a) DO NOT pull or carry charging base

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 close a door on the cord,

pull the cord around sharp corners, or leave the cord near heated surfaces.

12. 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 air ﬂow.

13. DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner airﬂow is restricted. If the air paths become blocked, turn the vacuum cleaner o and remove all obstructions before turning on the unit again.

14. Keep nozzle and all vacuum openings away from hair, face, ﬁngers, uncovered feet, or loose clothing.

15. DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water.

16. DO NOT place vacuum cleaner on unstable surfaces.

17. 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 matches)

f) Flammable or combustible

materials (lighter ﬂuid, gasoline, or kerosene)

g) Toxic materials (chlorine bleach,

ammonia, or drain cleaner)

18. DO NOT use in the following areas: a) Wet or damp surfaces b) Outdoor areas c) 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) d) Near ﬁreplaces with unobstructed entrances. e) In an area with a space heater.

19. Turn o the robotic vacuum cleaner

before any adjustment, cleaning, maintenance or troubleshooting.

20. Allow all ﬁlters to air-dry completely

before replacing in the robotic vacuum cleaner to prevent liquid from being drawn into electric parts.

21. DO NOT modify or attempt to repair the

robotic vacuum cleaner or the battery yourself, except as indicated in this manual. DO NOT use the vacuum if it has been modiﬁed or damaged.

22. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this

appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not ﬁt fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

23. In case the self-empty base has a

thermal shuto the unit needs to have a hard power reset to restart.

BAT T E R Y USE

24. The battery is the power source for

the vacuum. Carefully read and follow all charging instructions.

25. To prevent unintentional starting, ensure

the vacuum is powered o before picking up or carrying the vacuum. DO NOT carry the appliance with your ﬁnger on the power switch.

26. Use O NLY the Shark® self-empty base

XSAESDOCK and use only battery RVBAT850. Use of batteries or battery chargers other than those indicated may create a risk of ﬁre.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

27. Keep the battery away from all metal objects such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails, or screws. Shorting the battery terminals together increases the risk of ﬁre or burns.

28. Under abusive conditions, liquids may be ejected from the battery. Avoid contact with this liquid, as it may cause irritation or burns. If contact occurs, ﬂush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help.

29. Robotic vacuum cleaner should not be stored, charged, or used at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) or above 104°F (40°C). Ensure the battery and vacuum have reached room temperature before charging or use. Exposing the robot or battery to temperatures outside of this range may damage the battery and increase the risk of ﬁre.

30. DO NOT expose the robotic vacuum cleaner or battery to ﬁre or temperatures above 265°F (130°C) as it may cause explosion.

31. Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be recharged.

BOTBOUNDARY® STRIPS

32. DO NOT put BotBoundary strips

underneath carpet or rugs.

33. Always use BotBoundary strips around reﬂective ﬂooring and surfaces.

34. BotBoundary strips should always be used near carpeted stairs.

35. DO NOT place BotBoundary strips within 10 feet of the dock.

36. For your robot’s cli sensors to work properly, all runners, rugs, or carpets must be eight inches from any stairs (or it must be continuous and extend over the edge of the stairs). If a runner, rug or carpet edge that is less than eight inches from the stairs cannot be moved, you must use a BotBoundary strip to block o the stairs.

The Self-Empty Base charges your robot and holds dirt and debris from up to 15 days' worth of cleaning. Selec t a permanent location for the base, because every time you relocate it, your robot will be required to completely re-map your house.

Choose a level surface in a central area. Remove any objects that are closer than 3 feet from either side of the base, or closer than 5 feet from the from the front. Place the base with its back against the wall in an area with a good Wi-Fi signal. Set up the base on bare ﬂoor, or on the SharkMat. Plug in the Charging Cord, and turn on the power switch on the back of the base. The base must be plugged in continuously for the robot to ﬁnd it. The Indicator Light will illuminate green when the base has power.

NOTE: For best results , set up on b are ﬂo or or thi n carp et with th e Shar kMat .

NOTE: Do no t place b ase against h eatin g elem ents o r baseboard s, or in direc t sunlight.

NOTE: The robot will make a loud noise when it empties its deb ris into the base . This is normal and not a caus e for con cern .

INSTALLING THE SIDE BRUSHES

Snap the 2 included Side Brushes located in the red packaging, onto the square pegs on the bottom of the robot.

To charge, the Power button on the side of the robot must be switched ON (I) (by pressing "I"). The robot will beep when charging begins.

Clean Dock

When the cleaning cycle is complete, or if the battery is running low, the robot will search for the base. If your robot doesn’t return to the base, its charge may have run out.

If the robot has no charge and cannot return to the base, manually place it on the base. The base indicator light will ﬂash blue and the robot will beep when charging begins .

NOTE: Whe n manually placin g the rob ot on the b ase, make sure the Charging Contacts on the bot tom of the robot are touching the ones on the base and the robot's dust bi n is touching th e debr is inta ke on the base. While the robot is charging, both blue LED lig hts will ﬂash . When c harging is complete , both blue lights will illuminate ste adily.

NOTE: Whe n picking up th e robot b e caref ul not to p lace ﬁngers between the bumper and the b ase of th e robot .
