The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop is designed for homeowners seeking an automated, comprehensive cleaning solution. This innovative device offers powerful suction for both carpets and hard floors, coupled with advanced sonic mopping capabilities to leave your surfaces spotless. While it excels at handling pet hair and providing precise, whole-home cleaning with its self-cleaning brush-roll and precision matrix cleaning, remember that optimal mopping performance requires regular refilling of the water tank and use of appropriate cleaning solutions.

The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop is engineered for consistent, high-performance cleaning across various home environments. For carpeted areas and bare floors, its powerful suction ensures a deep clean, effortlessly picking up everyday dirt, crumbs, and significant amounts of pet hair thanks to its self-cleaning brush-roll. This feature is particularly beneficial for pet owners, as it minimizes hair wrap and maintains cleaning efficiency over time.
When transitioning to hard floors, the robot activates its sonic mopping function. This isn't just a wipe-down; the high-frequency scrubbing action helps to break down and lift dried-on stains and spills, providing a more thorough clean than passive mopping systems. You'll notice a significant difference on high-traffic areas like kitchen floors.
The Precision Matrix Cleaning technology ensures that the robot doesn't wander aimlessly. Instead, it cleans in a methodical grid pattern, ensuring comprehensive coverage of each room. This systematic approach minimizes missed spots and maximizes cleaning efficiency, whether it's performing a quick spot clean or a full-home pass. The robot's ability to tackle corners and edges means less manual cleaning is required in those often-neglected areas. It's designed to navigate around furniture and obstacles, making it a reliable partner for daily floor maintenance.
Unpack and Charge: Remove all packaging materials. Place the robot on its charging dock, ensuring the contacts align. Allow the robot to fully charge before its first use.
Download the App: Download the SharkClean app on your smartphone. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your robot to your home Wi-Fi network.
Initial Mapping Run: For optimal performance, allow the robot to complete an initial 'explore' run of your home. This helps it create an accurate map for efficient cleaning.
Prepare for Mopping: Before mopping, fill the integrated water tank with water and a compatible cleaning solution (refer to the user manual for recommended solutions). Attach the mop pad securely.
Floor Types: Compatible with all hard floor surfaces (e.g., hardwood, tile, laminate) for both vacuuming and mopping. Suitable for low-pile to medium-pile carpets for vacuuming.
Pet Hair: Highly effective for homes with pets due to its self-cleaning brush-roll.
Empty Dustbin: Empty the dustbin after each cleaning cycle, or as needed, to maintain optimal suction power.
Refill Water Tank: Refill the water tank before each mopping session. Ensure you only use approved cleaning solutions.
Clean Mop Pad: Remove and clean the reusable mop pad after each mopping session. Machine washing is often supported; check your manual.
Inspect Brush-roll: Periodically check the self-cleaning brush-roll for any remaining debris or hair, though this is rare. Remove any tangles if present.
Clean Sensors: Wipe the robot's sensors (cliff sensors, bumper sensors, charging contacts) regularly with a dry cloth to ensure proper navigation and charging.
Replace Filters: Replace the HEPA filter (if applicable) and other filters according to the schedule in your user manual, typically every 3-6 months, depending on usage.
