steam cleaning hard floors

Your Steam&Sweep is designed to clean 

hard flooring such as ceramic tile, vinyl, 

marble, stone and sealed hard wood 

floors. Use of your Steam&Sweep on 

waxed or some unwaxed floors may 

result in a diminished glossiness. The 

Steam&Sweep is not for use on unsealed 

wood floors. Ensure that the Steam&Sweep 

is throughly tested in an inconspicuous 

area prior to cleaning a large floor area. 

Also be sure to check the care instructions 

from your flooring manufacturer. 

1.

  When the ready light illuminates, 

begin cleaning by slowly passing 

over the surface while pressing the 

steam on demand trigger to emit 

steam as needed.

2.

  To sanitize an area of your floor, 

(attack invisible germs and bacteria) 

leave the Steam&Sweep over the area 

for a minimum of 15 seconds using 

continuous steam, but no longer than 

20 seconds. for larger areas, overlap 

swivel head placement.

3.

  When the Steam&Sweep stops emit-

ting steam, turn the unit off. Simply 

remove the water tank, refill, and 

continue cleaning.

note: upon first use of this  

steam product or first use of  

a new filter, the pump may  

make a "knocking" sound while 

the filter fills with water. this 

sound is normal and may last 

up to one minute. continue to 

depress the trigger until the 

knocking sound subsides and  

the unit emits steam.

WaRnIng

Never put descaling aromatic, 

alcoholic, or detergent products 

into the steam cleaner, as this 

may damage it or make it unsafe 

for use.

Tip

:

The Steam&Sweep may be used as 

both a steam mop and a sweeper at 

the same time.

cautIon:

 

Exercise extreme care when using 

the Steam&Sweep on timber floor-

ing. Ensure the Steam&Sweep is 

thoroughly tested in an inconspicu-

ous area prior to mopping a large 

floor area. The Steam&Sweep 

generates hot steam, so when 

depressing the trigger to apply 

steam, ensure the Steam&Sweep 

is moving continuously. The trigger 

does not need to be depressed at 

all times. Prolonged application 

of steam in one area increases 

the risk of damage to the surface 

treatment on timber floors. Check 

with your timber floor treatment 

and application specialist prior to 

team&Sweep operation. Regular 

foot traffic and direct sunlight will 

wear down timber floor surface 

treatment, making it more suscep-

tible to steam damage. Exercise 

extreme care when using the 

Steam&Sweep on timber flooring.
