ABOUT THE SHARK ION ROBOT®

With Auto-Sense™ Navigation, your robot uses an array of sensors to navigate around walls, furniture legs, and other obstacles while it cleans. The robot may gently bump into obstructions or linger in one spot, and it may not cover every area in a single cleaning. For best results, prepare your home as indicated below, and schedule a daily cleaning to ensure all floor areas are regularly maintained

Before cleaning, clear away cords and other obstructions, or block off the areas you don't want you robot to travel to.

To prevent your robot from becoming trapped, use furniture risers.

If your robot roams too far, it could have trouble finding the Charging Dock.

For your robot’s cliff sensors to work properly, all runners, rugs, or carpets must be at least 4 inches from any stairs (or extend over the edge of the stairs). If a runner, rug, or carpet edge is less than 4 inches from the stairs and can’t be moved, use a BotBoundary® strip to block off the stairs. BotBoundary strips are available for purchase at sharkaccessories.com

PREPARING FOR USE

INSTALLING THE SIDE BRUSHES

Snap the 2 included Side Brushes onto the square pegs on the bottom of the robot.

CHARGING DOCK SET-UP

Place the charging dock on a level surface with its back against a wall, in a space without obstructions, that can easily be accessed by your robot. Remove any objects that are closer than 3 feet (1 meter) from either side of the dock, or closer than 5 feet (1.52 meters) from the front of the dock. Plug the Charging Adapter into a wall outlet. The dock must be plugged in continually for the robot to find it. The robot will beep when it starts charging on the dock.

NOTE: Placing the dock near reflective objects like mirrors could make docking difficult.

CHARGING THE SHARK ION ROBOT®

CHARGING

IMPORTANT: The Shark ION Robot has a pre-installed rechargeable battery. Battery must be fully charged before using

To charge, the Power button on the side of the robot must be in the ON position (I).

When the cleaning cycle is complete, or if the battery is running low, the robot will search for the dock. If your robot doesn’t return to the dock, its charge may have run out.

If the robot has no charge and cannot return to the charging dock, place it on the dock manually.

NOTE: When manually placing the robot on the dock, make sure the Charging Contacts on the bottom of the robot are aligned with the dock. To ensure the robot is docked correctly, refer to the Charge Indicator Lights section.

CHARGE INDICATOR LIGHTS

The blue charge indicator lights show how much charge is remaining.

While the robot is charging, all three blue LED lights will cycle. When charging is complete, all three blue lights will illuminate steadily. If the robot is idle and away from the charging dock for 10 minutes, it will enter Sleep Mode, and the lights will turn off.

If all the indicator lights are off, then the robot is in Sleep Mode, the power switch is turned OFF (O) or there is no charge remaining. Turn the power switch ON (I). Press any button to ensure robot is not in Sleep Mode.

If all indicator lights remain off, there is no charge. Place the robot on the dock, leaving a half-inch space between the front of the robot and the face of the dock. When the robot is docked correctly and begins to charge, it will beep and the charge indicator lights will cycle.

NOTE: If the low charge light is blinking red, there is not enough charge for the robot to return to the dock. Manually place the robot on the dock, leaving a half-inch space between the front of the robot and the face of the dock.

TIP: To preserve battery life, turn off the power switch if robot will not be used for a long period of time. Unit should be recharged at least once every three months.

USING THE SHARK ION ROBOT®

MANUAL CLEANING MODE

To manually start a cleaning cycle, press the Clean button on the robot or on the mobile app. To stop the robot before it finishes cleaning and automatically returns to the dock, press the button again.

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning an entire room for the first time, we recommend that you first test your robot on a small section of the floor to ensure there is no scratching

Reinsert the filter into the dust bin. Slide the dust bin back into the robot.

CLEANING THE MULTI-SURFACE BRUSHROLL

THE BRUSHROLL NEEDS OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE.

Push up on the tabs on the brushroll access door, then lift off the door.

Lift out the brushroll.

Remove the blue cap on the end of the brushroll. Do not let the metal cylinder inside the cap fall out. Clean off any hair or debris, then replace cap. Clean the brushroll periodically and whenever hair appears.

Reinstall the brushroll, inserting the flat end first. Close the brushroll access door and press down until it clicks into place.

NOTE: If the metal cylinder falls out of the brushroll cap, reinsert it in the hole on the inside of the cap. When cutting away debris, be sure not to cut the brushroll or any other parts of the robot.

CLEANING SENSORS AND CHARGING PADS

CLEAN SENSORS AND CHARGING PADS PERIODICALLY AS NEEDED. With a dry cloth or cleaning brush, gently dust off the sensors and pads located on the bottom of the robot.

MPORTANT: The robot uses cliff sensors to avoid stairs and other steep drops. Sensors may work less effectively when they are dirty. For best results, clean sensors regularly.

CLEANING SIDE BRUSHES

CLEAN SIDE BRUSHES AS NEEDED. CHECK WEEKLY.

RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT SCHEDULE: Replace when visibly worn. See sharkaccessories.com for replacement parts.

Carefully unwind and remove any string or hair wrapped around brushes.

Gently wipe brushes with a damp cloth. Be sure to let them air-dry completely before reinstalling them.

NOTE: Remove any side brushes that are bent or damaged. To remove a brush, lift it off its peg. See Installing the Side Brushes for instructions on how to attach and remove the brushes

CLEANING THE WHEELS

REMOVE AND CLEAN FRONT WHEEL EVERY WEEK. REPLACE FRONT WHEEL EVERY 12 MONTHS. See sharkaccessories.com for replacement parts.

Pull the Front Caster Wheel from its housing and remove any debris buildup

Clean the wheel housing, then reinsert the caster wheel.
