PLACING THE MICROFIBRE PAD
NOTE: Don’t be alarmed if the first
time you use your Steam Mop, you
notice water inside the water tank or
drops of water in the packaging. It’s
normal to see this water. Your Steam
Mop was 100% tested in the factory
to ensure your safety and your floor’s
happiness. If you see water in the
unit, it’s from these tests.
1
Place the microfibre cleaning cloth
underneath the mop head, with
the quick fastener strips facing up.
Simply press the pad on to the
Steam Mop.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you only
add water to the tank. Chemicals or
cleaning solution may damage the
appliance and could be unsafe for
you and your family.

FILLING THE WATER TANK

The filling flask and funnel included
with your Steam Mop make filling
the water tank as simple as getting a
glass of water from the sink. Fill the
flask with water and use the funnel to
pour it into the tank. Be sure to keep
the water under the MAX FILL line;
just one flask of water is enough for
your Steam Mop. See illustration for a
visual explanation.
IMPORTANT: Before you fill up the
tank, make sure your Steam Mop is
unplugged from the wall.

First, remove the water tank cap by
turning it counter clockwise to the
unlocked position. See illustration
for a visual explanation.

Using Your Steam Mop
Now comes the part you’ve been
waiting for – it’s time to use your steam
mop. When you use your steam mop for
the first time or haven’t used the unit
in awhile, it may take a minute or two
for the water to make its way through
the pump and into the heater to create
steam. Get it started by pumping the
handle a few times. If you’ve waited a
few minutes and you still don’t see any
steam, reference the troubleshooting
section on page 9.
1
IMPORTANT: Your Steam Mop needs
water to make steam! Never use your
Steam Mop without water in the tank.
1
Pull and twist the quick release
cord holder to unwrap the power
cord completely. Plug into a 220-
240 volt electrical outlet. The “On”
light will turn green. Success! If your
light doesn’t turn on reference the
Troubleshooting section on page 9.
Sweep or vacuum your floors
before using your Steam Mop. Your
Steam Mop was designed to get
rid of stuck-on gunk, grime, paw/
footprints and it will do a better job
if yesterday’s cereal crumbs aren’t in
the way.

It takes about 30 seconds for the
steam to get going. Now pump the
handle a few times to prime the
pump and activate steam.
IMPORTANT: When your floors are
sparkling clean and you’re finished
with your Steam Mop, unplug it from
the electrical outlet and carefully
remove the microfibre cleaning pad
from the mop head. Always remove
the microfibre cleaning pad from the
mop head when you have finished
using your Steam Mop to avoid
damage to your floors. The steam
will make your microfibre cleaning
pad very hot. You may want to wait
a couple of minutes to let it cool off
before you remove it.

KEEPING YOUR MICROFIBRE
CLEANING PAD AS GOOD AS NEW
Your steam activated microfibre
cleaning pad works wonders for you,
so return the favour by giving it the
care it deserves.
KEEPING YOUR STEAM MOP
IN TIP-TOP SHAPE
If you love your Steam Mop, let it
show. Caring for your Steam Mop
and properly storing it means you’ll
get the same super steam action you
expect each time you use it.
1
Wash pad in warm water. Wash
separately from other laundry.
IMPORTANT: Both your Steam Mop
and the water inside it can get very
hot, so let it cool down completely
before you store it.
Only use liquid detergent (no powder
detergent). Don’t use any fabric
softeners.
IMPORTANT: Always store the
Steam Mop in a safe place away from
children and high traffic areas.
Line dry. Do not tumble dry.
2
If there are loose threads on the pad
carefully cut the thread with scissors.
Don’t pull on them or cut at the base.
NOTE: It’s a good idea to use
distilled water in your tank to help
prolong the life of your Steam Mop,
especially if you live in an area with
hard water.

220-240V electrical outlet only.
The Steam Mop
will not turn-on.
Check your fuse or breaker.

The pad might be dirty, change or wash the pad.
If you washed the pocket with powder detergent then the
pad might have residual detergent left on it. Wash it again
with liquid detergent.
If you are cleaning in a kitchen area where there might be a
build-up of grease then use a degreasing agent such as an
all-purpose cleaner or dish soap and paper towels to clean
the area first.
Floors are cloudy,
streaky or spotty
after steaming.
You might have left the mop in the same spot for
too long.
Do you have hard water? If you do you might want to
switch to distilled water.
