Tip
Empty the dust cup after every use to ensure the sweeper works efficiently.
Shark rechargeable sweepers are battery-powered cleaning devices used to pick up light dirt and debris from hard-surface floors and carpets. Dirt and debris is drawn into the sweeper with a rotating brush in the front of the nozzle. The waste container that collects the dirt is much smaller than the containers and bags found on full-size vacuum cleaners, and needs to be emptied often to ensure proper operation.
Step 1
Turn off the sweeper using the power pedal on the nozzle of the sweeper.
Step 2
Press the dust-cup release lever on the back of the nozzle and lift the handle to remove it from the nozzle. The dust cup is connected to the handle.
Step 3
Hold the dust cup over a waste receptacle and press the dust-cup release button on the middle of the handle.
Step 4
Close the dust cup by pressing on the bottom panel. You will hear a click when the panel is closed.
Step 5
Line the dust cup over the nozzle and press down until it snaps in place. The sweeper is ready for use again.
