Why does my Shark Vacuum Cleaner turn off on its own?
- S
  Shirley GrayAug 4, 2025
  Your Shark Vacuum Cleaner might be turning off on its own because it is equipped with a motor protective thermostat. If the vacuum overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn the unit off. To restart the motor thermostat: 1. Move the On/Off switch to the “O” (Off) position. 2. Unplug the vacuum. 3. Empty the dust cup and clean the filters. 4. Check for blockages in the hose, accessories, and inlet openings. 5. Allow the unit to cool for a minimum of 45 minutes. 6. Plug in the vacuum. 7. Turn the On/Off switch to the “I” (On) position to restart the vacuum. If the vacuum still does not start, contact Customer Service.

  Jennifer FisherAug 16, 2025
  If your Shark Vacuum Cleaner has restricted airflow, resulting in no or light suction, you should: * Check the filters to see if they need cleaning. Follow instructions for rinsing and drying the filters before re-inserting them back into the vacuum. * Empty the dust cup, as it may be full. * Check the hose, hose connections, nozzles, and accessories for blockages; clear blockages if required. * Close the suction release on the hose to increase suction power. * If the dust cup is empty, and attachment inlets are clear, check for other blockages.

Why does my Shark Navigator SWIVEL PLUS NV40 Vacuum Cleaner lift scatter rugs?
- R
  robertfosterAug 28, 2025
  Your Shark Vacuum Cleaner might be lifting scatter rugs because the suction is powerful. Take care when vacuuming scatter-type rugs or rugs with delicately sewn edges. Open the suction release on the hose to decrease suction power.
