Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance of your Shark Navigator ADV Corded Vacuum.

Emptying the Dust Cup

Empty the dust cup after each use or when debris reaches the MAX FILL line. To empty, press the dust cup release button and lift the dust cup off the pod. Hold the dust cup over a trash bin and press the bottom release latch to open the bottom of the dust cup. Close the bottom flap until it clicks. For a more thorough empty, you can also open the top lid.

Cleaning Filters

The vacuum features washable HEPA and foam/felt filters. Rinse the foam and felt filters every 3 months, or as needed, under running water until the water runs clear. Allow them to air-dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstalling. The HEPA filter should be tapped clean periodically and rinsed annually. Do not use soap or other cleaning agents on the filters.

Brushroll Maintenance

Periodically check the brushroll for any hair, string, or debris that may be wrapped around it. Use scissors to carefully cut away any obstructions. The brushroll is designed for easy access to facilitate cleaning.

Troubleshooting

If your Shark Navigator ADV Corded Vacuum is not performing as expected, consult the following common issues and solutions:

• Vacuum not picking up debris: Check for blockages in the hose, dust cup, nozzle, or filters. Ensure the dust cup is properly seated and filters are clean and dry.
• Vacuum turns off: The vacuum may have overheated. Turn off the vacuum, unplug it, and allow it to cool for at least 45 minutes. Clear any blockages and clean filters before restarting.
• Brushroll not spinning: Ensure the vacuum is in the Carpet setting. Check for blockages in the nozzle or brushroll.
• Poor suction: Verify that the suction control slider is set to MAX. Check for full dust cup or clogged filters.
