Your steam mop is designed to clean hard

oor surfaces that will withstand high heat.

Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed cera-

mic oors. On surfaces that have been treated

with wax or some no wax oors, the sheen may be

removed by the heat and steam action. It is always

recommended to test an isolated area of the surfa-

ce to be cleaned before proceeding. We also re-

commend that you check the use and care in-

structions from the oor manufacturer.
