17. DO NOT use for space heating purposes.
18. DO NOT add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the water used in this appliance as this may damage the unit or make it unsafe for use. If you live in a hard water area, we recommend using distilled water in your steam mop.
19. When in use, NEVER turn the appliance over or on its side. NEVER DIRECT
STEAM TOWARDS PEOPLE, ANIMALS OR PLANTS.
20. Carefully remove the cleaning pad immediately after you have unplugged and allowed the product to cool.
21. When cleaning the steam mop, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and clean with a dry or damp cloth. Do not pour water or use alcohol, benzene or paint thinner on the unit.

26. Store steam mop indoors in a cool, dry place.
27. To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket (circuit) as the steam cleaner.
28. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, an extension cord rated a minimum of 15 ampere, 14 gage cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
29. DO NOT leave unattended when the system is connected to a power supply or electrical outlet. Turn off all controls before unplugging the unit.
30. DO NOT store unit with a damp or wet cleaning pad attached. Never leave the steam mop in one spot on any surface for any period of time with a damp or wet cleaning pad attached as this will damage your floors.
WARNING: Your steam mop is
designed to clean hard floor surfaces that will withstand high heat. Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors. On surfaces that have been treated with wax or some no wax floors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action. It is always recommended to test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. We also recommend that you check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.

Your steam-mop should be securely plugged into an electrical outlet only.
Check your fuse or breaker.
If your unit still doesn’t work, give us a call 1-800-798-7398.
Is there water in the water tank? If not, add water to your Steam Mop following instructions.
Do not leave the steam mop on the floor with a damp cleaning pad.
If you are using tap water, we recommend switching to distilled water.
Make sure that the cap is securely placed on the water tank.
Check to see if the cleaning pad is soaked through. We recommend that you unplug the unit and replace the cleaning pad.
The cleaning pad may be dirty. Change cleaning pad.
The mop may have been left in one spot for too long.
This may be leftover from past cleaners used on the floor surface. Uvse the mop a few more times again with a clean pad and see if the cloudiness is removed. If this does not work, we suggest rinsing the floor with water, letting it dry and then steam mopping again with a clean pad. One of more rinses generally removes the residue. A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a mix of one part vinegar and two parts water.
Make sure the cleaning pad is on properly.
Check to see if the cleaning pad is excessively dirty. If so, replace with a clean pad.
