WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury, or property damage:

GENERAL WARNINGS

• Robotic vacuum cleaner consists of a
  robotic vacuum and charging dock with
  power supply. These components contain
  electrical connections, electrical wiring,
  and moving parts that potentially present
  risk to the user.
• Before each use, carefully inspect all
  parts for any damage. If a part is damaged,
  discontinue use.
• Use only identical replacement parts.
• This robotic vacuum cleaner contains no
  serviceable parts.
• Use only as described in this manual.
  DO NOT use the robotic vacuum cleaner
  for any purpose other than those
  described in this manual.
• With the exception of filters, DO NOT
  expose any parts of the robotic vacuum
  cleaner to water or other liquids.

USE WARNINGS

• This appliance is not intended for use by anyone (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of  experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Always turn off the robotic vacuum cleaner before inserting or removing the filter or dust bin.
• DO NOT handle plug, charging dock or robotic vacuum cleaner with wet hands.
• DO NOT use without dust bin and filters in place.
• Only use Shark® branded filters and accessories. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
• DO NOT damage the charging cord:
• DO NOT pull or carry charging dock by the cord or use the cord as a handle.
• DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. Grasp the plug, not the cord.
• DO NOT close a door on the cord, pull the cord around sharp corners, or leave the cord near heated surfaces.
• DO NOT put any objects into nozzle or accessory openings. DO NOT use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and  anything that may reduce airflow.
• DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner airflow is restricted. If the air paths become blocked, turn the vacuum cleaner off and remove all obstructions before turn on the unit again.
• Keep nozzle and all vacuum openings away from hair, face, fingers, uncovered feet, or loose clothing.
• DO NOT use if robotic vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water.
• DO NOT place vacuum cleaner on unstable surfaces.DO NOT use to pick up:
• Liquids
• Large objects
• Hard or sharp objects (glass, nails, screws, or coins)
• Large quantities of dust (drywall dust, fireplace ash, or embers). DO NOT use as an attachment to power tools for dust collection.
• Smoking or burning objects (hot coals, cigarette butts, or matches)
• Flammable or combustible materials (lighter fluid, gasoline, or kerosene)
• Toxic materials (chlorine bleach, ammonia, or drain cleaner)
• DO NOT use in the following areas:
• Wet or damp surfaces
• Outdoor areas
• Spaces that are enclosed and may contain explosive or toxic fumes or vapors (lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene, paint, paint thinners, mothproofing substances, or flammable dust)
• Turn off the robotic vacuum cleaner before any adjustment, cleaning, maintenance or troubleshooting.
• Allow all filters to air-dry completely before replacing in the robotic vacuum cleaner to prevent liquid from being drawn into electric parts.
• DO NOT modify or attempt to repair the robotic vacuum cleaner or the battery yourself, except as indicated in this manual. DO NOT use the vacuum if it has been modified or damaged.

BATTERY USE

• The battery is the power source for the vacuum. Carefully read and follow all charging instructions.
• To prevent unintentional starting, ensure the vacuum is powered off before picking up or carrying the vacuum. DO NOT carry the appliance with your finger on the power switch.
• Use ONLY the Shark® charging dock RVDOK850 and RVDOK850WV and battery RVBAT850. Use of batteries or battery chargers other than those indicated may create a risk of fire.
• Keep the battery away from all metal objects such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails, or screws. Shorting the battery terminals together increases the risk of fire or burns.
• Under abusive conditions, liquids may be ejected from the battery. Avoid contact with this liquid, as it may cause irritation or burns. If contact occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help.
• Robotic vacuum cleaner should not be stored, charged, or used at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) or above 104°F (40°C). Ensure that the battery and vacuum have reached room temperature before charging or use. Exposing the battery to temperatures outside of this range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
• DO NOT expose the robotic vacuum cleaner or battery to fire or temperatures above 265°F (130°C) as it may cause explosion.

CHARGING THE SHARK IONTM ROBOT

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

The power must be ON in order to charge the battery. Press the Power button on the side of the robot.

CHARGE INDICATOR LIGHTS

The blue Charge Indicator Lights show how much charge is remaining

While the battery is charging, all three blue LED lights will cycle until charging is complete. If all the indicator lights are off, then either the power switch is turned OFF or there is no charge remaining. Turn the power switch ON. If all indicator lights remain off, then charge the unit on the dock.

CHARGING DOCK

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.

CHARGING

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

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

CHARGING THE SHARK ION™ HANDHELD

CHARGING DOCK

Prior to first use, the lithium-ion battery must be charged completely, even if it comes with a partial charge. Place the Shark ION Handheld onto the charging dock with the air-intake nozzle in the cradle. Plug the charging dock into a wall outlet.

CHARGE INDICATOR LIGHTS

NOTE: During first use, discharge fully to properly condition the battery. It takes approximately 2.5 hours to charge completely.

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

Smart Sensor Technology

Smart Sensor Technology allows your robot to navigate around obstructions as it cleans. During your first few cleanings, you may need to make some small adjustments to optimize your robot’s performance.

Before cleaning, clear away cords and other obstructions or block off the area with the included BotBoundary™ strips.

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

Your robot may have some trouble clearing some high thresholds. Block off high thresholds with BotBoundary strips.

Make sure the dock is set up as shown. If your robot roams too far, it could have trouble finding the dock. It may be helpful to block off part of your home with the included BotBoundary strips, or to add a second dock (available at sharkaccessories.com)

BotBoundary™ strips

To keep Shark ION Robot away from certain areas, such as pet bowls, fragile objects, power strips, or doorways, use the BotBoundary strips to quickly and easily create “no-go zones”.

Identify areas or objects you want the vacuum to avoid.

Cut the BotBoundary strip to the desired length (18˝/45cm minimum) so that it spans the length of the doorway or object you want to block off.

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.

For best results, make sure your BotBoundary strip is completely flat against the floor. Make a closed loop around an object, or place the strips between fixed objects, like door frames or the legs of a couch to create no-go zones.

NOTE: To prevent bumping, place strips at least 2 inches in front of the object you want to block off.

NOTE: You do not need to use BotBoundary strips on stairs. Your robot has cliff sensors that will prevent it from falling off any ledges or stairs.
