A:AnswerNo, the brush on the Detect Clean & Empty cannot be manually stopped. However, switching to Eco Mode will slow the brushroll speed, which can help protect delicate surfaces like wool carpets.
A:AnswerTo keep the Shark Cordless Detect Pro in optimal condition, it is necessary to regularly empty both the Auto-Empty dustbin and the handheld vacuum dust cup. Additionally, it is important to keep the hand vac's foam and HEPA filters clean by rinsing them in water and allowing them to air dry completely for at least 24 hours. The same cleaning routine applies to the auto-empty dock filters. Clean the brush roll by removing any debris and washing it with water. Finally, wipe the vacuum's sensors with a dry cloth to prevent hair and other debris from obstructing them. If the sensors are partially blocked, the AUTO mode will not work as expected.
