Using Your Sonic Duo
™
Carpet, Wood & Hard Floor Cleaner - cont.
IMPORTANT
: Do not use on unsealed wood
or unglazed ceramic floors. Do not use on wood
or tile floors that are highly worn, unfinished
or have a wax or oil finish. Surfaces that have
been treated with wax or some no wax floors
may be damaged by the cleaning and polishing
solutions therefore it is always recommended to
test an isolated area of the surface to be cleaned
or polished before proceeding. You should check
the use and care instructions from the floor
manufacturer before cleaning or polishing.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use more than one brand
of floor polish to polish one room.
Use only
Shark
®
Wood & Hard Floor Polish.
6
Use the
Sonic Duo
™
to spread the polish
evenly over the floor. Do not go over an applied
area too frequently. Always leave an area
looking wet. If a section begins to look dry while
polishing, add more Wood & Hard Floor Polish to
the area. Repeat until the whole area has been
polished.
7
When going from section to section, do not lift
the
Sonic Duo
™
to move it, always slide it to
the next section. No rinsing is required.
8
Allow the Wood & Hard Floor Polish to dry for at
least 1 hour in light traffic areas and a complete
24 hours for the polish to cure before returning
to heavy traffic areas.
9
When finished, turn the unit off and slide and
lift the
Sonic Duo
™
to remove it from the area
that was just polished. Lay the
Sonic Duo
™
on
its side and remove the Hard Floor Polishing Pad
by hand. (

NOTE
: Depending on the amount of traffic your
floors sustain,
Shark
®
recommends polishing
every 2 months. Touch up high traffic areas as
needed in-between full floor polishes.
Polishing Your Hard Floors:
1
Vacuum the floor to remove all loose dirt, dust
and grit from the floor surface. For best results,
we recommend that you clean the floor using
the
Shark
®
Wood & Hard Floor Cleaner first and
allow time to dry before polishing.
2
Attach the Hard Floor Polishing Pad to the
bottom of the
Sonic Duo
™
. This pad has an
“Orange” trim and the “Orange” tag says “Hard
Floor Polishing Pad”. (

)
3
Lightly step on the back of the scrubbing head to
release the handle.
WARNING
: Never stand on the
Sonic Duo
™
.
4
Carefully, squirt a liberal amount of the Floor
Polish onto an area of the floor to be polished
and place the polishing pad over it before you
start the unit. Make sure that the polishing
pad is saturated and then squirt the polish in
12x12cm sections. (

)
5
Turn the On/Off button to “On (I Low)” setting.
Always squirt the floor polish from a height of
15cm above the floor to avoid splashing the
polish over the floor. One bottle is enough to
cover 40m
