3 REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS KEY
Daily spot cleaning is recommended to keep dirt and grime from building
up in your home.
The range of convenient, quick-clean products from Shark is guaranteed to
help you keep a clean and sanitized* home.
** TIP: First time users may experience some streaking or clouding after the
initial use. This may be the result of your Steam Mop removing residue from
chemicals and polishes previously used on your floors. With regular use these
effects will diminish. For more stubborn cases, you may need to rinse the floor
with a mix of one part vinegar and two parts water. Remember, a clean mop
pad is essential for residue removal.
WARNING: Your Steam Mop is designed to clean hard floor surfaces that will
withstand high heat. Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors.
On surfaces that have been treated with wax or some no wax floors, the sheen may
be removed by the heat and steam action. It is always recommended to test an
isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. We also recommend
that you check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.

mop head. (Fig. 2)
4 Open the water tank cap, fill the tank with water, then replace and tighten the cap. (Fig. 4)

The Steam Mop will not turn on.
(There are NO blue lights illuminated.)
Ensure the power cord is plugged in correctly to a working
120-volt outlet.
The Steam Mop will not make steam.
Verify the Steam Control button is illuminating solid blue indicating a
steam setting has been chosen. Ensure that the unit is filled with water.
You cannot activate a steam mode on the Steam Mop.
(Blue light remains flashing.)
Unplug the unit from the outlet, wait 15 to 30 seconds, then plug the

not overly saturated. If it is overly saturated, unplug the unit, wait 2 to 3
minutes for the pad to cool, and then replace with a clean, dry pad.

White spots may occur if you leave a wet pad idle for an extended period of
time. If you are not activly mopping, do not leave the pad touching the floor.
Floors are cloudy, streaky, or spotty after steaming.
This may be the result of residue from chemicals previously used to
treat the floor. Be sure to follow the “Steps to a Shark
