Getting Ready
1. Attach pad to the mop foot. (Elastic band will
secure pad on the foot.) *This may already be
attached.
2. Fill the water tank.
a. The water tank opening is located on the
side of the water tank. Remove the cover and
use water cup to fill.
NOTE: Do not overfill
or water may spill. Room temperature water
may provide better results.
b. Close the tank cover and press down
firmly.
3. Pull and twist the Quick Release™ cord wrap
clockwise to unwrap the power cord completely

Important Safety Instructions on page 2.
NOTE: Do not use chemicals in the water tank
of your Lift-Off ™ Steam Mop.
NOTE: Upon the first use of your steam mop or
first use after refilling the water tank, the pump
may make a ‘knocking’ sound. This is normal
and could last up to 30 seconds.
Using Your Steam Mop
The hard floor cleaner can be used either
on hard floors or above the floor using the
specialized tools. For best results, vacuum
the floor first to clear dust and small debris
before using your steam mop.
Your hard floor cleaner is designed to clean hard
flooring, such as ceramic tile, vinyl, marble, stone
and sealed hard wood floors. Use on waxed or
some unwaxed floors may result in a diminished
glossiness. The hard floor cleaner is not for use
on unsealed wood floors. For best results, test in
an inconspicuous area and check the care
instructions from your flooring manufacturer.
1. Plug the unit in and wait 30 seconds for it to
heat up. The “ready” light will blink while the
steam mop heats up. The “ready” light will be
solid and lit up when heat up is complete. Press
the On/Off button first. Then choose HI or LO
steam.
HI (for durable floors or sticky messes) or
LO
(for delicate floors or every day cleaning).
2.
To be sure to sanitize an area of your
floor, use the microfiber cloth pads and slowly
and evenly stroke your steam mop back and
forth at least three times over the area using
continuous steam. For best results, remove the
pad and wash after use.
