Cleaning the Pre-Motor Filters
Clean every 2 months · Replace every 6–12 months
|
1
Lift the foam filter out of the base by the top handle. 2
Remove the felt filter beneath it. 3
Tap both filters over a bin, then rinse with cold water only — no soap. 4
Air-dry for at least 48 hours. Reinstall the felt filter first, then the foam filter on top. |
No soap, no washing machine. Soap damages the filters. Reinstalling damp filters can draw liquid into the motor — always wait the full 48 hours.
Cleaning the Post-Motor Filter
Clean every 2 months · Replace every 6–12 months
|
1
Slide down the tab at the top of the filter door, tilt, and lift the door off. 2
Pull down the teal tab to remove the post-motor filter. 3
Tap gently over a bin to knock out dust. 4
Reinsert bottom-first until it clicks, then reattach the door. |
Dry clean only. Never use water or soap on the post-motor filter — it will permanently damage it.
Emptying the Base Dust Bin
When notified in the app · Monthly or as needed
|
1
Press the Dust Bin Release button on the back right and slide the bin out. 2
Hold over a bin, press the orange release button to open the lid. 3
Tap lightly to dislodge debris. Wipe the grey mesh filters inside with a dry cloth. 4
Slide the bin back until it clicks into place. |
Cleaning the Pad Plate Tray
As needed
Don't remove the pad plate directly from the dock. Slide the robot up the ramp, start a wet clean, pause it, then remove the pad plate tray.
|
1
With the robot removed, access the base wash tray. Wipe it down with a damp microfiber cloth. 2
Locate the mop pad washing brush on the right side. Remove any hair or debris from the bristles and wipe away stuck-on debris with a damp cloth. |
|
3
Carefully remove the greywater grate on the left-hand side and wash with water to clear debris. Reinstall ensuring it sits flush in the wash tray. 4
Allow the wash tray to dry completely for at least 48 hours before reinstalling the robot. |
Cleaning the Base Ramp
Every 3 months or as needed
|
1
Carefully lift the ramp up and away from the base. 2
Wipe down with a damp microfiber cloth and air-dry completely. 3
Reinstall by aligning the flat side with the base and pressing down until it clicks. |
Maintaining the Base Water Tanks
Room temperature only. Hot water can deform the tanks. Never move the base while a water tank is full. Only use Shark-branded floor cleaner in the clean water tank.
