Operating Instructions
Care & Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Always ensure that your
steam cleaner is
UNPLUGGED from the
wall receptacle prior to
cleaning or emptying the
water tank.
CAUTION
Do not immerse your
steam cleaner in water
or any other liquid.
CAUTION
Always operate steam
cleaner by gripping
the handle. Do not
grip by the pole.
1. Turn your steam cleaner off and unplug from
the electrical outlet.
2. Wrap power cord around cord hangers.
3. Let your steam cleaner cool for five (5) min utes before removing the Ultra-Microfiber pad
and before emptying the water tank.
4. Always empty the water tank when you have
finished using your steam cleaner.
5. Never leave Ultra-Microfiber pad on steam
cleaner when you have finished using it.
Always remove the Ultra-Microfiber pad and
wash in warm water with a mild detergent.
Never use bleach or fabric softener when
cleaning the Ultra-Microfiber pad.
The Ultra-Microfiber pad can be washed in a
washing machine and dried in a clothes
dryer but on low heat.
To decrease pad wear, we recommend the
pad be hung to dry for 24 hours.
6. Wipe your steam cleaner with a damp cloth to
clean. Never immerse the unit in water or any
other liquid.
7. In order to keep your steam cleaner in good
condition, we recommend that you clean the
water tank once a month to eliminate calcium
deposits. Add eight ounces (8 oz) of water to
the water tank and insert 1 packet of Fresh
Rinse™ Lime and Scale Remover. Shake to
loosen any deposits. Place unit on resting
mat without pad, turn unit on and allow water
to steam until water in tank is depleted.
Do not use vinegar or other decalcifying
substances in the steam cleaner water tank.
Helpful Hints
1. Always use a vacuum or sweep before
sanitizing your floors.
2. The easiest way to use the machine is to
tilt the handle to a 45º angle and clean
slowly 2-3 yards at a time.
Helpful Hints Cont.
3. A good amount of steam passes through
the Ultra-Microfiber pad. We recommend
that the Ultra-Microfiber pad be changed
when it becomes oversaturated.
4. To remove stubborn stains from vinyl or
linoleum floors, pre-treat with a mild
detergent and some water before using the
steam cleaner.
Ultra-Microfiber Pads for HAAN® Steam Cleaners
What is an Ultra-Microfiber?
An Ultra-Microfiber is a textile fiber that is thinner and more absorbent than a microfiber (1.0dtex) pad typically used with steam mops. Specifically, to be defined as an
Ultra-Microfiber, it should be less than 0.2dtex. The Ultra-Microfiber pad by HAAN
Corporation is made of .17dtex Ultra-Microfibers.
How to Use Ultra-Microfiber Pads
1. Please make sure that a completely dry pad is used.
2. As high temperature steam passes through a pad to contact the floor
to kill germs, molds, mites and to provide a certain amount of water
necessary for cleaning, it is natural that the pad gradually absorbs
moisture. After a certain length of time, the pad repels water and
becomes damp.
3. To keep the floor clean and dry, replace the pad when it is dirty.
4. Only remove pad from unit when not in use and steam is not being
emitted.
How to Clean and Store
1. Hand wash or machine wash the Ultra-Microfiber pad in cold water
on the delicate cycle with a mild detergent. (Do not use a
fabric softener.)
2. Using a washing machine may shorten the lifespan of the pads.
3. We recommend air drying the Ultra-Microfiber pad for 24 hours, but
they could be dried in a dryer on a low heat setting.
