Frequently Asked Questions - NV352 SHARK

How do I convert my Shark NV352 to detachable canister mode?

Press the button on the detachable canister and lift it away from the floor nozzle. The canister can be carried by the handle for portable cleaning.

Why is my vacuum losing suction?

Check if the dust cup is full, filters need cleaning, or there is a blockage in the hose or attachments. Refer to the maintenance section for filter care.

How do I clean the pre-motor filters?

Remove the dust cup, pull out the foam and felt filters, rinse them in lukewarm water until clean, squeeze out excess water, and air-dry for at least 24 hours before reinstalling.

How often should I clean the HEPA filter?

The post-motor HEPA filter should be cleaned once every 2 years or as needed. Tap it clean and rinse with lukewarm water, then air-dry for 24 hours.

Why does the brush roll stop spinning?

The brush roll automatically shuts off to prevent damage if it jams. Turn off the vacuum, unplug, remove the blockage, and power cycle. Ensure the switch is in 'II' position for brush roll.

How do I clean the turbo brush on the NV352?

Slide the locking latch forward, tilt open the brush housing, remove debris, cut away hair/string with scissors, and reassemble by clicking the housing closed.

What does it mean when the vacuum turns off by itself?

The vacuum has a motor protective thermostat that shuts off when overheated. Turn off, unplug, empty dust cup, clean filters, check blockages, and let cool for at least 45 minutes before restarting.

What attachments come with the Shark NV352?

It includes a crevice tool, dusting brush, turbo brush, and an accessory holder for storage.
