If the Shark S3455K steam cleaner leaves water on the floor but does not produce steam, possible reasons include:
1. The steam control button may not be activated. Press it to select the desired steam setting. 2. The water tank may be empty. Refill it if necessary. 3. The mop may not be heating properly. Wait 2-3 minutes for it to heat up. 4. If the STEAM CONTROL button light does not turn on, refer to the troubleshooting section in the manual. 5. Ensure the mop is plugged in and the cap is securely on the water tank.
