Important Safety Instructions
Basic precautions should be observed when using an electrical appliance, including the following:
IMPORTANT
Be sure to read ALL instructions and warnings before using your HAAN® Steam Cleaning Sanitizer.
WARNING
Risk of electrical shock: Be sure to read and follow all instruc­tions and warnings.
CAUTION
The unit emits steam at 212˚F to sanitize the area of use. This means that the steam head, Ultra-Microber Pads and Carpet Glide get very hot during use. Care should be taken when using this appliance. DO NOT touch them during use except in the approved manner as outlined in this manual.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: For household use only. Any other use of this appliance will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
2
1. Do not direct steam at people, animals, or at electrical outlets.
2. Do not expose to rain.
3. Store indoors.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before conducting service maintenance or trouble-shooting.
5. Do not leave steam cleaner unattended.
6. Do not leave the steam cleaner connected to an electrical outlet when not in use.
7. Do not service steam cleaner when it is plugged in.
8. Do not use with damaged cord or plug.
9. Do not use steam cleaner if it has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water. Return to a service center.
10. Do not handle steam cleaner with wet hands.
11. Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on cord, pull cord around sharp corners or expose cord to heated surfaces.
12. Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
13. Do not use appliance in an enclosed space lled with vapor given o by oil-base paint thinner, some moth-proong substances, ammable dust, or other explosive or toxic vapors.
14. Do not allow to be used as a toy.
15. Do not use on leather, wax polished furniture or oors, synthetic fabrics, velvet or other delicate, steam-sensitive materials.

17. Do not use for any purpose other than described in this User Manual.
18. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments – use of attachments not provided or sold by HAAN electric shock or injury.
®
may cause re,
Important Safety Instructions
19. Never put descaling, aromatic, alcoholic or detergent products into the steam cleaner, as this may damage it or make it unsafe for use.
20. Unplug by grasping the plug, not the cord.
21. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
22. If the circuit breaker activates while using the steam function, discontinue product use immediately and contact the customer support center. (Beware of the risk of electrical shock.)
23. Do not allow the product to be disassembled and/ or modied by anyone other than an authorized service technician. (Doing so can result in re and/ or electrical shock.)
24. This product is NOT for space heating purposes.
IMPORTANT
WARNING
DO NOT modify the plug. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock.
If an extension cord is necessary, a mini­mum of 15 ampere/14 gauge cord should be used. Cords rated for less may overheat.
Grounding Instructions:
The handheld cleaner must be connected to a grounded (3-prong) wiring system. Grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical current in the event the unit should malfunction or break down, thereby reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for this product has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Do not plug it into an outlet that is not properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Check with a qualied electrician or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded. If it will not t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied elec­trician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120­volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug as illustrat­ed below. Make certain that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same conguration as the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

Operating Instructions
Care & Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Always ensure that your handheld steamer is UNPLUGGED from the wall receptacle prior to cleaning or emptying the water tank.
CAUTION
Do not immerse your handheld steamer in wa­ter or any other liquid.
1. Unplug the handheld steamer from the electrical outlet after every use.
2. When storing, organize the power cord by using the supplied twist tie.
3. After each use, unplug the power cord and press the steam button to fully discharge all remaining pressure.
4. Let the handheld steamer cool completely before storing.
5. When nished cleaning always empty the water tank. Failure to do so can lead to unpleasent stagnant water odors and tank discoloration.
6. Do not introduce detergents and/or soap to the water tank. NOTE: Tap water can be used in the handheld steamer. If the water in your area is hard, it is recommended that distilled/puried water be used. Doing so can extend the life of the product.
7. To clean the body of your handheld cleaner wipe it down with a damp cloth.
8. Store the unit upright in a protected dry cool area.

Before Using Your Handheld Cleaner
UNLOCK
UNLOCK
Be sure to read ALL instructions and warnings before using your Handheld Cleaner.
CAUTION
After plugging in the power cord and beginning to heat, a xed amount of water is released due to the build-up of internal pressure. After heating is complete, spray the steam 2 to 3 times before axing or switching any additional attachment.
CAUTION
Use a grounded receptacle. Use only a heavy duty extension cord rated for 15 amps minimum – DO NOT use an ordinary extension cord. To provide continued protec­tion against the risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlet only.
CAUTION
The handheld cleaner is designed to clean hard surfaces and upholstery that will withstand high heat. DO NOT use on soft plastic and cold glass. On surfaces that have been treated with wax, or on some no-wax oors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action. DO NOT use on unsealed wood. This could cause the wood panel to rise. It is recommended that an isolated surface area be tested to verify suitability before proceeding to the rest of the area.
CAUTION
After use, pressure will exist within the product. Press the Control Trigger to elimi­nate this pressure prior to opening the Pressure Locking Safety Cap.

Commonly Asked Questions
Q: What surfaces can be sanitized by using the steam cleaner?
A: Your steam cleaner is designed to clean hard surfaces like laminates & counter­tops, stovetops and tile, ceramic and glass as well as upholstery; any surface that will withstand high heat.
DO NOT use on soft plastic and cold glass. On surfaces that have been treated with wax, or on some no-wax oors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam. DO NOT use on unsealed wood. This could cause the wood panel to rise. It is recom­mended that an isolated surface area be tested to verify suitability before proceeding to the rest of the area.
Q: Why does the “Steam Ready” light go on and o when steam cleaning?
A: This indicates the unit is re-pressurizing itself or is out of water.
Q: How long does a tank of water last?
A: A full tank will last approximately 15 minutes.
Q: Do I have to use distilled water?
A: No. But if the tap water in your area is hard it is recommended that distilled/puri­ed water be used to extend the life of your handheld cleaner.
Q: Does the HAAN work on pet stains?
A: Yes, the HAAN is able to spot clean fresh pet stains by loosening and lifting the stain.
Q: Why can’t I open the Pressure Locking Safety Cap during operation?
A: The high water temperature and pressure inside the tank present a safety hazard. The cap is designed so that it can only be removed when the internal tank pressure and or temperature is low.
Q: Will the HAAN AllPro HS-20 clean grout?
A: Yes, but it needs a little help. Steam the grout to loosen dirt and then scrub with the Detail Brush attachment.
Q: Where does the dirt go?
A: The HS-20 does not have a suction feature, so it does not pick up loose dirt. Be­fore steaming, vacuum or sweep away loose dirt. After steaming it is recommended that the steamed area be wiped down with a towel to remove any loosened dirt.
