Cleaning hard floors

Your Steam Mop Max is designed to
clean hard flooring such as ceramic
tile, vinyl, marble, stone and sealed
hard wood floors. Use of your Steam
Mop Max on waxed or some unwaxed
floors may result in a diminished glossi-
ness. The Steam Mop Max is not for
best results, test in an inconspicuous
area and check the care instructions
from your flooring manufacturer.
1. When the ready light illuminates, begin
cleaning by slowly passing over the sur-
face while pressing the steam on demand
trigger to emit steam as needed.
2. To sanitize an area of your floor, (attack
invisible germs and bacteria) put the
center of the Steam Mop Max over the
spot for a minimum of 15 seconds using
continuous steam, but no longer than 20
seconds. For larger areas, overlap swivel
head placement.

WARNING:
Never put descaling
aromatic, alcoholic, or
detergent products into
the steam cleaner, as this
may damage it or make it
unsafe for use.
Tip:
Upon first use of the Steam
Mop Max or first use of a new
filter, the pump may make a
"KNOCKING" sound while filter
fills with water. This is normal and
will last between 30 seconds to a
minute. Continue to depress the
trigger until the "KNOCKING"
subsides and the unit begins
emitting steam.
