6. Maintenance

6.1. Cleaning Filters

To maintain optimal suction power and filter efficiency, regularly clean your foam and felt filters:

• Rinse filters with cold water only.
• Allow filters to air-dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstallation. Do not use heat to dry.
• Tap off loose dirt as needed between washes.

Important:

• Filters may appear dirty after use; this is normal.
• Ensure filters are completely dry before placing them back into the vacuum to prevent damage and mildew.

6.2. Replacement Frequency

For best performance and to prolong the life of your vacuum, adhere to the following replacement schedule:

• Foam and Felt Filters: Replace every 3 to 6 months, or more frequently depending on usage.
• HEPA Filter: Replace every 3 to 6 months, or more frequently depending on usage.

7. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your vacuum's performance after filter replacement, consider the following:

• Reduced Suction: Ensure all filters are correctly installed and completely dry. Check for any blockages in the vacuum's hoses or brush roll. If suction remains low, it may be time to replace filters, even if not yet at the recommended interval, especially with heavy use.
• Unusual Odors: This often indicates dirty filters. Wash and thoroughly dry the foam and felt filters. If odors persist, replace all filters.
• Filter Not Fitting: Double-check that you have the correct filter kit for your specific Shark Detect Pro Max model (AZ4000, AZ4002, or AZ4000C). Refer to the compatibility section.
