IMPORTANT:

Blockages on page 11.

NOTE: The height of your power

nozzle has been optimized for

easy pushing and superior clean-

ing on all ﬂoor types, so there

Emptying the Dust Cup Assembly

button; tap container gently to

dislodge and release dust and

debris.

Important: If the Dust Cup

Door does not swing open after

pressing the release button,

push the door open using the

bottom door tabs.

CAUTION:

Unplug the vacuum;

failure to do so might

result in electric

shock.

3Option B: For Allergy Sufferers:

Wrap a trash bag around the

Dust Cup Assembly leaving

space at the bottom for the door

to swing open.

Locate the Dust Cup Door

release button within the trash

bag and press to release as you

shake the dust cup to empty

dust and debris.

Snap the bottom door in place.

Note: Option B can also be

performed outside of the home

to further minimize releasing

dust back into the air. Carry just

the Dust Cup Assembly and trash

bag outside.

Note: Some dust and debris

may remain in the top of your

dust cup assembly on or near

the metal screen. It is not

necessary to completely remove

this material before continuing

to vacuum; Shark®advanced

cyclonic action will sweep the

metal screen clean once you

begin to reﬁll your dust cup.
