Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Shark VACMOP, refer to the following common solutions:

• Reduced Suction: Check if the disposable pad is full of debris and needs to be replaced. Ensure the foam filter is clean and properly installed.
• No Spray: Verify that the solution tank is filled with cleaning solution. Check for any blockages in the spray nozzle.
• Streaking on Floors: Ensure you are using genuine Shark VACMOP cleaning solution. Replace the disposable pad if it is excessively dirty.
