Getting Started

When assembling your Steam Mop there may be a little water in or around the water tank. This is because we test all our Steam Mops before you buy them, so you get a quality Shark® Genius™ Steam Pocket® Mop System.

Assembling Your Steam Pocket® Mop

WARNING: Always make sure the Steam Mop is UNPLUGGED when not in use. Never fill the Steam Mop or attach the mop head when the Steam Mop is plugged into an electrical outlet. Unplug from the electrical outlet and allow to cool before you fill the Steam Mop, or attach or remove the head. To prolong the life of your Steam Mop, we recommend using distilled water. Make sure you add only water to the tank. Chemicals or cleaning solutions (including vinegar) may damage the Steam Mop and could be unsafe for you and your family.

STEAM MOP ASSEMBLY

1. Insert the Steam Mop handle into the Steam Mop body. Push the handle in until you hear it click into place. (fig. 1)
2. Slide the Genius™ Mop Head into the Steam Mop body. Push until you hear it click securely into place. (fig. 1) To detach the Genius Mop Head, press the release button and slide off.
3. To attach the Dirt Grip™ pad, spread the pad on the floor with the pocket side up. Center the Genius Mop Head above the pad, then press the pad release button on the back of the Steam Mop body (fig. 2a). Both sides of the Genius Mop Head will drop open (fig. 2b). Slip the Genius Mop Head’s four corner tabs into the four corner pockets of the pad (fig. 3 and fig. 4). Gently press one side of the Genius Mop Head to the floor until that side clicks into place (fig. 5). Repeat on the other side (fig. 6).
4. Pull down on the water tank lid to open (fig. 7).
5. Use the filling flask to pour water into the water tank (fig. 8). Water can be poured into the tank directly. Do not overfill past the water line on the fill flask. Press the water tank lid firmly to close it.

Using Your Steam Pocket® Mop

IMPORTANT: Make sure you do not use the Steam Mop without attaching a Dirt Grip™ pad and adding water to the water tank first. When you are using the Steam Mop for the first time, it might take longer than the normal 30 seconds to start steaming.

IMPORTANT: Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors. On surfaces that have been treated with wax and on some no-wax floors, the sheen may be removed by the heat and steam action. Test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding. Check the use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.

NOTE: To prolong the life of your Steam Mop, we recommend using distilled water.

NOTE: Sweep or vacuum your floors prior to cleaning with your Steam Mop.

1. Twist the Quick-Release Cord Holder to unwrap the power cord completely (fig. 9). Plug into an electrical outlet.

2. When it's first plugged in, the unit will be in Standby mode. When in Standby, the blue light below the Steam Button will blink (fig. 10a).

3. When ready to activate steam, press the Steam Button on the Steam Mop body to activate. The blue light will stop blinking and will glow steadily.

4. Clean your floors with a forward and backward motion.

5. When you need an extra burst of steam to clean a stuck-on stain, you can use the Steam Blaster™ feature. Flip the head over so that it is behind the mop body, then tilt the mop handle down. This will cause the the Steam Blaster (fig. 10b) to emit a concentrated blast of steam onto the stain.

CAUTION: While in Steam Blaster mode, do not leave stationary for more than one minute.

CAUTION: Do not scrub any one area for an extended period of time.

6. To stop the Steam Blaster spray, simply raise the handle. You can then flip the mop head back into its original position and continue cleaning.

7. When finished mopping, press the Steam Control button. The blue light will blink, indicating that the unit is in Standby mode. Once in Standby mode, unplug the unit.

8. To remove the Dirt Grip pad, simply lift the Steam Mop straight up by the handle until the Genius™ Mop Head is hanging straight down. Press the Release button on the back of the Steam Mop body (fig 11a), and both sides of the head will drop open, releasing the pad (fig 11b).

9. Once the Dirt Grip pad has been released, close the Genius Mop Head. To close, gently press one side of the Genius Mop Head to the floor until that side clicks into place. Repeat on the other side.

10. When the water tank is empty, the Steam Mop will stop producing steam. You can refill the water tank at any time as long as the Steam Mop is unplugged. Follow the water tank filling instructions on page 6.

NOTE: Please wait 2 to 3 minutes for the Steam Mop to cool off before switching the mop head. Never leave the Steam Mop with a damp/wet Dirt Grip pad on any floor for an extended period of time.

DIRT GRIP PAD CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Care

Machine-wash the Dirt Grip pads separately with warm water using liquid detergent.

NEVER USE BLEACH, POWDERED DETERGENT, OR FABRIC SOFTENERS as they may damage or leave a coating on the Dirt Grip pads that will reduce their cleaning performance and absorbency. Dirt Grip pads should be line-dried or tumble-dried on a low setting, as this will extend the life of the microfiber fabric (fig. 14).

Loose fibers can indicate wearing of the microfiber fabric. Do not pull the loose fibers, as this can cause the weave to come undone. Simply trim the loose fibers with scissors (fig. 15).

Replacement Dirt Grip pads

For best cleaning results, we recommend replacing your Dirt Grip pads every 3 to 4 months following normal use. As with any fabric, dirt particles, grease, friction, and repeated washing can cause the fibers to break down, and you may notice an increase in the effort needed to push or pull the Steam Mop.
