Operating Principles of Filters and Brushroll

The Leemone replacement parts are designed to maintain the high performance of your Shark vacuum cleaner:

• Brushroll: The brushroll efficiently removes hair, pet fur, pet dander, food scraps, and dust from various surfaces, including hard-to-reach areas.
• Pre-Motor Foam & Felt Filters: These filters intercept 99% of contaminants and impurities, such as fine dust and allergens, before they can reach and potentially damage the vacuum's motor.
• Post-Motor Filter: This filter captures 99.99% of harmful particles, including microscopic allergens, ensuring that clean air is expelled back into your environment.

Maintenance and Care

Regular cleaning and timely replacement of filters are crucial for maintaining your vacuum's suction power and air filtration efficiency.

Cleaning Filters

The pre-motor foam and felt filters are washable and reusable:

1. Remove Filters: Take out the foam and felt filters from the vacuum.
2. Hand Wash: Rinse the filters under warm water until the water runs clear. Do not use detergent.
3. Air Dry: Squeeze out excess water and allow the filters to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting them into the vacuum. Ensure they are completely dry to prevent mold or damage to the vacuum.

Replacement Schedule

It is recommended to replace the pre-motor foam and felt filters once every 2-4 weeks, and the post-motor filter every 3-6 months, depending on usage frequency and environmental conditions. Maintaining clean and high-quality filters is essential for prolonging the motor's lifespan and ensuring effective cleaning.

Brushroll Cleaning

Use the provided cleaning brush to remove tangled hair and debris from the brushroll regularly. If the brushroll is heavily worn or damaged, replace it with a new one from the kit.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your vacuum cleaner after replacing the filters, consider the following:

• Reduced Suction: Ensure all filters are correctly installed and completely dry. Check for any blockages in the vacuum's hose or nozzle.
• Unusual Odors: This often indicates that filters need cleaning or replacement. Ensure filters are thoroughly dry after washing.
• Filters Not Fitting: Double-check that you have the correct replacement parts for your specific Shark vacuum model (IZ462H, IZ483H, IZ482H, IZ440H). Refer to the dimensions provided in the package contents section.
• Brushroll Not Spinning: Verify that the brushroll is correctly seated and free from obstructions like tangled hair or debris.
