Sweep, Vacuum, and Dust Mop Beforehand
Before you break out your Shark Steam Mop, you want to take the time to sweep, vacuum, and dust mop your floor. This will get up any debris that will only be pushed around by your mop. This will also ensure that your mop pad doesn’t become filthy immediately.
Prep and Fill the Steam Mop
Take the mop pad and attach it to the mop head. Fill the water reservoir with distilled water. It is imperative that you use distilled water. Using anything else risks clogging your machine.
Wait for the Unit to Heat Up
Plug up your Shark Steam Mop and allow to heat until the light indicates that the unit is ready to use.
Test an Area of Your Flooring
Before you clean your entire floor, take a moment to test an area of your floor that can’t easily be seen. If you have wood or laminate flooring, you want to make sure that the mop isn’t going to damage it. For sealed floors, you shouldn’t have any problems. If your floor is older, you may want to think about resealing it before using this mop.
Allow to Cool After Cleaning and Wash the Pad
Once you’re done cleaning, allow the machine to cool, empty any water left in the machine, and remove the pad. Wash the cleaning pad in warm water with liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softener. Hang to dry or dry on the lowest setting in your dryer to avoid shrinkage.
The Shark Steam Mop allows you to clean your floors without the need of cleaners. The hot steam will also sanitize your floors so that you don’t have to worry about your baby or pets being on the floor.
