> For how long should I charge my hand vacuum?
> Charge the hand vacuum for 24 hours before the initial use. Discharge fully after first use, then recharge for 16 hours. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE CHARGER AFTER THE 16-HR CHARGE TIME HAS COMPLETED. Fully discharge the unit at least once a month. Do not store the unit in the charge stand with the charger plugged in. Do not store the unit in areas of high temperature or humidity.

Thanks to all who responded. I ended up calling Shark. They said it should NOT be left on the charger as it is a Ni-Cad battery and it will affect the life span. Following her suggestion, I ran the battery down, put it on the charger and timed how long it took to reach full charge. I bought a cheap indoor timer and set it to turn on for that amount of hours. That way I don't have to keep checking to see if it's charged and unplug it.by

Yes as far as I can tell you can. My wife and I leave ours on the charging base all the time and so far no issues have popped up. So far we like this version.by

I have left mine on the charging base and I have had no problems with it.7 years ago
A:
The green charging light comes on when I first return it to the charging station but does eventually go out. I assume it stops charging when full. I've kept it on the charging base hanging on the wall since new and haven't had any issues so far but it is only a month old.by

Yes it can. In the owners manual it specifies that you can leave the vacuum on its chargr at all times until needed. I leave mine on the charger at all times and my vac operates fine. Hope this helps.7 years ago
A:
I never gave it much thought. I have recently purchased this unit and have always left it hooked up to the charger. When I first set it on the charger the green light turns on, after it is charged the light turns off. This is my second unit as.i had an older model prior to this one. I hope this helps you.by

This one lasts about 20 min per charge unless using the roller. Then it lasts about 12 minutes. No loss of power during the whole time it is working. It just stops at 20 min.by

A:
The vacuum is bagless. The filter is washable and the directions recommend that you wash it regularly. I keep an extra filter and alternate them so I always have a clean dry filter.4 years, 7 months ago
A:
Hello,We would like to inform you that the filter inside the dust cup for the Shark® Bagless Cordless Hand Vac is washable. To wash the filter, rinse with water only. Allow the filter to air-dry completely for at least 24 hours before putting it back in the vacuum.
We hope this information helps.

A:
It's basically a tapered tube that slides into the end. All attachments, (beater bar, edge tool, brush), slide in the same. It's not as long and narrow as the crevice tool that you normally see, so you can't get into deep areas like next to the driver's seat, but it works for me!7 years, 1 month ago
A:
There's the pet hair rotory tool which attaches on to the front and then there's the regular crevice tool which does the same. There's also a dusting attachment that works great on keyboards or for in between nick-nacks7 years, 10 months ago
A:
The edge cleaning device is a long crevice device such as the ones that come with normal size vacuums.8 years ago

You should have a charging stand with your vacuum. Hope you didn't throw it away with the packaging.7 years, 4 months ago
A:
I had this problem once and discovered that the cord wasn't plugged all the way into the handheld. Sometimes it wiggles aloose so you just need to make sure it's inserted firmly into the base of the cradle and locked into place. Hope this helps!7 years, 5 months ago
A:
Hello Jimbo,Shark - Bagless Cordless Hand Vac includes a wall-mountable deluxe charging stand.

A:
it is actually not replaceable. it should be, but the casing is built to tight to remove without disassembling the entire unit. then the new battery is about the price of a new machine, so not worth it in my opinion. get new shark with new batteries and new warranty.by

Manual and search google for additional assistance. Not the easiest for me personally! As I unscrewed the whole unit as it was very dirty. The battery included was wrapped around the entire bottom compartment and you don’t know what is what until you finally research replacement battery pack and see it’s that simple! Just detach the black wrapped parts ever so gently and that’s the part you remove! I advise the manual and Google!by

Hello Sandy,We are happy to assist you with your inquiry about the Shark® Bagless Cordless Hand Vac. To empty the dust cup, press the dust cup release button and pull out the dust cup. Remove the dust cup filter to be able to empty the debris from the dust cup. If you would like you can rinse the dust cup filter in water. If you do this, let it dry completely before replacing it back into the dust cup. Do not wash it in a washing machine or use a hair-dryer or other forced air to dry it, air-dry only.
We hope this information helps.
