Some post-motor filters, for example, have an extra frame that you need to remove before cleaning..If your Shark has a HEPA filter, this may come in two sections: a pre-HEPA foam filter and the HEPA filter itself.

These can both be rinsed in cold water..Don’t panic if you’ve lost your Shark vacuum’s manual.Search on Google for “Model Name + user manual” to find a digital version..

Step 3: Rinse the Washable Filters.Start by tapping off any excess dust and dirt into a bin bag.

Then gently rinse the pre-motor filters with cold water, before repeating with the post-motor filter.. You won’t be able to remove all the staining and you shouldn’t scrub the filter – the goal is to get rid of dirt and other debris that could block airflow.

Discolouring is completely normal for a vacuum filter.. Be extra careful when cleaning felt filters, as these are delicate.This could reduce the effectiveness of the machine’s filtration..

Glass could tear the bag, allowing dirt and other debris to directly hit the filter.This can cause clogging and may damage the filter.. Cut the brush bar bristles.

If your vacuum has a rotating brush bar, then glass could damage the bristles.We don’t recommend using a tool with a rotating brush bar for cleaning glass.. Block your vacuum..
