Q17: I am receiving a Shock from the unit (Static Shock)
A17: We are sorry to hear about the incident with your vacuum cleaner. Certain dry conditions in winter or dry areas may cause common static electricity to build up in the vacuum, producing small shocks, similar to what you might experience from contact with doorknobs, wool sweaters, or blankets. This is harmless. In order to avoid this, we recommend moisturizing your hands and/or removing wool socks or sweaters prior to vacuuming. If the problem persists you can also wipe over the unit, particularly the areas in which you are experiencing electrostatic shocks, with a dryer sheet or damp paper towel to reduce the buildup of static.
