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.
19. 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.
