FAQs
How often do I need to empty the dustbin?
The self-emptying base automatically empties the robot's dustbin into its larger capacity bin, which holds debris for up to 60 days. You will only need to empty the base's bin periodically when it indicates it is full.
How often does the robot refill its water tank?
The base automatically refills the robot's water tank, allowing for mopping operations for up to 30 days before the base's water reservoir needs to be refilled.
Is this robot suitable for homes with pets?
Yes, it is ideal for pet owners. It features an anti-allergen complete seal that captures 99.9% of dust and allergens, and built-in anti-odour technology to keep your home smelling fresh.
Can the robot go over thick carpets or thresholds?
Yes, the Shark PowerDetect Robot Vacuum and Mop is equipped with NeverStuck Technology, which allows it to lift and lower itself to navigate over thresholds, bumps, and even thick carpets.
How do I control the robot?
You can control the robot through the SharkClean mobile app, or by using voice commands via Amazon Alexa or Hey Google. The app allows for scheduling, map editing, and setting no-go zones.
What kind of maintenance is required for the mopping pads?
The anti-microbial mopping pads are automatically washed and dried within the self-emptying base after each clean. You should periodically inspect the pads for wear and replace them as needed to maintain optimal cleaning performance.
Can it map multiple floors?
The description states it 'Maps your home' and allows you to 'edit maps'. While it can map a single floor comprehensively, please refer to the specific product manual or SharkClean app features for confirmation on multi-floor mapping capabilities if this is a requirement for your home.
Troubleshooting
Robot not charging or turning on.
Ensure the self-emptying base is plugged into a live power outlet. Check that the robot is correctly docked on the charging contacts. Clean the charging contacts on both the robot and the base with a dry cloth.
Poor vacuuming performance or not picking up debris.
Check the robot's internal dustbin for fullness (even though the base self-empties, internal components can get blocked). Inspect the main brush roll and side brushes for tangled hair or debris. Clear any blockages in the suction path. Ensure the anti-allergen seal is properly seated.
Mop not dispensing water or leaving streaks.
Verify that the water tank in the self-emptying base is filled. Ensure the anti-microbial mopping pad is correctly attached and not overly soiled. If streaking occurs, consider pre-cleaning heavily soiled areas or using a fresh pad.
Navigation issues, robot getting stuck, or missing areas.
Clean the 3D 360° LiDAR vision sensor and other navigation sensors on the robot with a dry cloth. Clear any new obstacles or furniture that might be confusing the robot. If the map is corrupted, consider re-mapping your home through the app. Ensure there's sufficient light for mapping.
Bad odor coming from the base or robot.
Replace the anti-odour cartridge in the base. Ensure the dustbin in the base is emptied regularly. Clean the mopping pads thoroughly, or replace if necessary, as odors can build up on soiled pads.
App connectivity issues or voice control not working.
Ensure your home Wi-Fi network is active and strong where the robot is located. Restart the robot and your Wi-Fi router. Verify the robot is properly linked to your SharkClean app and your Amazon Alexa or Hey Google accounts. Check for app or robot firmware updates.
