FAQs
What is Anti Hair Wrap Technology?
Anti Hair Wrap Technology is a unique feature that actively removes hair from the vacuum's brush-roll as you clean. This prevents hair from tangling around the brush-roll, ensuring consistent performance and reducing the need for manual hair removal.
Can I use this vacuum on all floor types?
Yes, the Shark NZ801UKTBK features the DuoClean floorhead, which is designed to seamlessly clean both carpets and hard floors without requiring you to switch brush-rolls or attachments.
How do I use the Powered Lift-Away feature?
To use Powered Lift-Away, simply press the release button to detach the canister from the upright body. You can then carry the lightweight canister to easily clean stairs, upholstery, or high-up areas, while the brush-roll remains powered for continuous cleaning.
How often should I clean the filters?
For optimal performance, the pre-motor filters should be rinsed monthly, and the post-motor HEPA filter should be rinsed annually. Always allow filters to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting them.
Is this vacuum good for pet hair?
Yes, this model is specifically designed to handle pet hair effectively. It combines Anti Hair Wrap Technology to prevent tangles with strong suction and includes a specialized Pet Power Brush for deep cleaning pet hair from various surfaces.
What is the dust cup capacity?
The dust cup has a capacity of 0.83 liters. It's recommended to empty it after each use or when debris reaches the maximum fill line to maintain optimal suction.
What is the warranty for this product?
Upon registration with Shark (UK & ROI only), this product comes with a 5-year guarantee, providing long-term peace of mind.
Troubleshooting
Vacuum not picking up debris effectively or suction is low.
- Check if the dust cup is full and empty it. 2. Verify that all filters (pre-motor and post-motor) are clean and dry, and properly installed. 3. Look for any blockages in the hose, floorhead, or attachments. Detach parts and clear any obstructions.
Hair is still tangling on the brush-roll, despite Anti Hair Wrap.
While Anti Hair Wrap significantly reduces tangles, very long hair or large clumps might still accumulate. 1. Ensure the brush-roll is spinning freely and not obstructed. 2. Occasionally check for any stubborn tangles or debris that may have bypassed the anti-wrap mechanism and carefully remove them.
Powered Lift-Away feature not engaging or brush-roll not spinning in portable mode.
- Ensure the main canister is securely detached from the upright frame. 2. Check that the hose and any attached accessories are properly connected. 3. Verify there are no blockages in the hose or brush-roll assembly that might be preventing power transfer.
