Insert the wand into the floor nozzle until it clicks into place. Insert the handheld vacuum into the top of the wand until it clicks into place.

Remove the Odor Neutralizer Technology dial from the packaging and insert it into the nozzle cavity. Twist the dial counterclockwise until it clicks and locks into place.

To clean bare floors, area rugs, or with accessories:

Press the Power button to turn on the vacuum.

Slide the Floor Select button to setting I, Bare Floor, to clean floors and small area rugs.

Gently step on the floor nozzle and tilt the handheld vacuum back to activate the brushroll. The brushroll will spin slowly in this mode.

To clean carpets:

Slide the Floor Select button to setting II to clean carpets. In this setting, the brushroll spins faster to pick up debris below the surface of your carpets.

Gently step on the floor nozzle and tilt the handheld vacuum back to activate the brushroll. The brushroll will spin quickly in this mode.

Detach the handheld vacuum by pressing the Wand Release button at the top of the wand. Use the tapered tip on the handheld vacuum to clean tight spaces or add an accessory to the end for more options. For more cleaning reach, leave the handheld vacuum in place and detach the wand from the floor nozzle.

First, remove the power cord from the cord clip. Step on the foot pedal on the side of the floor nozzle, then pull up the handheld vacuum to remove the wand from the nozzle. Attach a cleaning accessory to the wand.

To store the vacuum upright, detach the handheld vacuum and hang it from the storage hook on the front of the wand. Then wrap the power cord around the cord hooks.

A wall mount is available for purchase at sharkaccessories.com for storage above the floor. Installation instructions are included.

For optimal performance, empty the dust cup each time you vacuum, or when debris reaches the Max Fill line.

Press the Wand Release button to detach the handheld vacuum.

Press the two release buttons at the same time and slide out the dust cup.

(You can also empty the dust cup when it is still attached to the handheld vacuum.)

Hold the dust cup over the trash and press the Empty button on the front of the dust cup. The bottom lid will open, allowing the debris to fall out.

Tap gently to empty contents.

Close the bottom lid, pressing it until it clicks into place.

Reattach the handheld vacuum to the top of the wand, pressing until it clicks into place.

There are two pre-motor filters and one post-motor filter.

All filters may need to be cleaned if the vacuum stops picking up dirt, if airflow is restricted, or if you notice lighter suction or no suction.

For optimal performance, clean the filters regularly. Between cleanings, lightly tap the filters over a trash receptacle to remove dust and debris as needed.

Rinse the pre-motor foam and felt filters once a month, or as needed.

Lift the latch on top of the handheld vacuum to remove the filter cover, then take out the foam and felt filters.

Rinse both filters with water only.

Allow filters to air-dry completely (at least 24 hours) before reinstalling.

Once the filters have dried, install the felt filter first, followed by the foam filter.

Reattach the filter cover, pressing down firmly until it clicks into place.

Rinse the post-motor filter once every 9 months, or as needed.

Locate the filter cover under the handle and press the button to remove to remove the cover.

Pull out the post-motor filter. Rinse it with water only.

Allow the filter to air-dry completely (at least 24 hours) before reinstalling it.

When the filter is completely dry, reinstall it.

Reattach the post-motor filter cover until it clicks into place.

Note: Do not place filters in the dishwasher or washing machine.

Certain dry temperatures in winter or dry desert areas may cause common static electricity to build up in the vacuum, producing small shocks, similar to what you might experience from contact with doorknobs, wool sweaters, or blankets. This is harmless. To avoid this, we recommend moisturizing your hands and/or removing wool socks or sweaters prior to vacuuming.

For more maneuverability on area rugs, use setting I, Bare Floor.

Gently step on the floor nozzle and tilt the handheld vacuum back to activate the brushroll. The brushroll will spin slowly in this mode.

For easier movement on high-pile carpets, slide the Floor Type button to setting II, Carpet.

Gently step on the floor nozzle and tilt the handheld vacuum back to activate the brushroll.

The brushroll will spin quickly in this mode.
