WARNING:Your steam mop is  
designed to clean hard floor surfaces that  
will withstand high heat. Do not use on  
unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors.  
On 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. Carefully remove the cleaning pad immediately  
after you have unplugged and allowed the steam  
mop to cool.  
20. 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.

STEAM MOP ASSEMBLY  
IMPORTANT: Always make sure the mop is  
UNPLUGGED from the wall when not in use.  
Never fill the mop, attach the mop head, change  
or remove the cleaning pad when the mop is  
plugged into the wall. To prolong the life of your  
Shark® Lift-AwayPro Steam Pocket®  
Mop we recommend using distilled water. Make  
sure you only add water to the tank. Chemicals  
or cleaning solution may damage the appliance  
and could be unsafe for you and your family.

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  
mop is unplugged from the outlet. Follow  
the instructions from page 5. This applies to  
switching the mop heads or cleaning pad as  
well.  
fig. 12  
NOTE: Please wait 2-3 minutes for the Steam  
Mop to cool off before switching the mop head  
or the cleaning pad. Never leave the Steam Mop  
with a damp/wet cleaning pad on any floor.

When one side of the cleaning pad gets dirty,  
just flip the mop and you can quickly start using  
the other side. (fig. 12)  
Using Your Carpet Glider  
The Steam Mop will not clean your carpeting or  
area rugs. However, it is great for grooming and

Getting Started With Your  
Removable Handheld Steamer  
Your Shark® Lift-AwayPro Steam Pocket®  
Mop is designed to clean surfaces that  
will withstand high heat and moisture.  
Do not use on unsealed wood surfaces  
(especially wooden antique furniture),  
unglazed ceramic tile, painted surfaces  
or surfaces that have been treated with  
wax, oils, varnishes, or shellac. The sheen  
may be removed by the heat, steam, and  
friction of the cleaning tools. Lacquer and  
polyurethane coatings provide a hard  
durable protective finish that withstands  
moisture, but it is always recommended to  
test an isolated area of the surface to be  
cleaned before proceeding.  
fig. 15  
We also recommend you check the use  
and care instructions from the surface  
manufacturer.  
When cleaning finished wood surfaces,  
use broad, continuous cleaning strokes. To  
prevent surface damage, avoid focusing  
steam or allowing the cleaning tools to sit  
in one spot for any amount of time.

To remove the Handheld Steamer, press and  
hold down the Handheld Release Buttons while

Using Your Removable Handheld Steamer  
with Direct Steam Nozzle  
Cleaning Tip: The Direct Steam Nozzle creates direct steam spray to clean and sanitize  
hard to reach nooks & crannies and other places where germs may build up. Use the  
Direct Steam Nozzle to loosen and dislodge compact dirt often found in corner and  
tight places where traditional methods and cleaning tools tend to push dirt into,  
making it tough to reach and clean. Spray direct steam and wipe clean with a wet cloth  
or paper towel.  
fig. 17  
fig. 16  
FOR SPOT CLEANING AND STEAMING  
CAUTION: Do not press the steam trigger until  
the Direct Steam Nozzle is snapped into the main  
nozzle of your Handheld Steamer.

First attach the Direct Steam Nozzle by pressing  
the nozzle onto the Handheld Steamer until it  
clicks into place. (fig. 16)

To remove the Direct Steam Nozzle, press and  
hold down the Handheld Release Buttons. Then  
slide out the Direct Steam Nozzle using the grip.  
The Handheld Steamer is automatically set to  
SCRUB mode. Squeeze the steam trigger to  
activate steam. To change modes press the ON/  
STEAM SETTING button to select either DUST,  
MOP or SCRUB mode. You can change the steam  
mode while the Handheld Steamer is in standby  
or in use. Once the selected setting indicator  
light has turned blue, hold down the steam  
trigger to start steaming. (fig. 17)  
CAUTION: Do not press the steam trigger  
while removing the Direct Steam Nozzle. Avoid  
touching the tip of the Direct Steam Nozzle, as  
this will be very hot after steaming.  
NOTE: The Handheld Steamer may continue to  
emit steam for a few seconds after the trigger is  
released. This is normal, and the steaming will  
eventually come to a stop.  
For effective cleaning, hold the steam output  
nozzle 1-2 inches away from the surface you’re  
cleaning.

Using Your Removable Handheld Steamer  
with Garment Steamer  
Cleaning Tip: The Garment Steamer is ideal for removing wrinkles from clothing and

CAUTION: Always determine color fastness  
of any fabric, especially with reds or blues. Take  
a clean, moist, warm towel and gently rub a  
small area on the fabric that is as out of sight  
and out of the way as possible. If color bleeds  
onto the towel, you may need to have the piece  
professionally cleaned.  
Select the steam setting and wait until the  
selected setting indicator light turns solid blue.  
Press and hold the steam trigger button, and  
move slowly up and down over your garments or  
upholstery. (fig. 20)

CAUTION: Do not press the steam trigger  
while attaching or removing the Garment  
Steamer.  
Use the lavender loop on the side of the bonnet  
to slide over the nozzle opening of the Garment  
Steamer. The elastic around the bonnet should  
hold it firmly in place around the Garment  
Steamer opening.

CARE OF YOUR CLEANING PAD AND  
BONNETS  
CLEANING THE NOZZLE  
1
Your Handheld Steamer should not normally  
require cleaning, however, should you notice  
a decrease in the steam output, it may be  
necessary to remove mineral deposits built up  
around the nozzles.  
1
2
We recommend washing your cleaning pad and  
bonnets separately from other fabrics to avoid  
picking up lint. Only use liquid detergent (no  
powder detergent). Do not use any fabric  
softeners or bleach. Line dry or dry on a low  
dryer setting. (fig. 30)  
2
3
Unplug the cleaner from the electrical outlet.  
Use the provided nozzle cleaning tool or a small  
diameter stiff metal wire, such as a straightened  
metal paperclip, and carefully insert the end of  
the wire into the nozzle orifice. See illustration  
above. (fig. 32)  
If there are loose threads on the cleaning pad  
carefully cut the thread with scissors. Do not pull  
on them or cut at the base. (fig. 31)  
IMPORTANT: The cleaning pad and bonnets  
may be very hot from the steam. Use caution  
when removing. Let the unit cool for 2-3  
minutes.  
4
5
Move the wire back and forth several times to  
remove any deposits.  
Plug in the appliance to the power outlet and  
test steam output.

Is there water in the water tank? If not, add water to your steam mop following  
instructions on page 5.

leaves water on the floor.  
Check to see if your cleaning pad is too wet. We recommend you unplug the steam mop  
and change the cleaning pad.  
Make sure the cleaning pad is attached correctly.

the standby mode.

The Shark® Lift-Away™  
Pro Steam Pocket® Mop  
left a white spot on the floor.  
Do not leave your steam mop on the floor with a damp or wet cleaning pad.  
If you’re using tap water, we recommend switching to distilled water.  
Make sure the cap is securely on the water tank.  
The cleaning pad might be dirty. Flip or change the cleaning pad.  
If you washed the cleaning pad with powder detergent, then your pad could be damaged  
This could also be an indication of prior soap or grease residue that has accumulated  
on the floor. As our steam mops use only a small amount of water, it may not be wet  
enough to rinse off the accumulation that the steam is bringing to the surface. We  
suggest rinsing the floor with nothing but water, letting it dry, and then steam mopping  
again with a clean pad. One or more rinses generally removes the residue.  
Floors are cloudy, streaky  
or spotty after steaming.  
A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a mix of one part vinegar  
and two parts water.  
The Shark® Lift-Away™  
Pro Steam Pocket® Mop  
is hard to push.  
Make sure the cleaning pad is attached correctly.  
Check to see if the cleaning pad is excessively dirty. If so, replace the cleaning pad.  
The garment steam bonnet or the upholstery bonnet must be in place at all times during  
usage. The steamer bonnet prevents water drops from being left on the garment or the  
upholstery and removes impurities from your water.  
The nozzle leaves water  
drops on the garment or  
upholstery.  
If the steamer bonnet is too wet or the frame has condensation, let the unit cool for 30  
minutes, remove the steamer bonnet and let it dry out before using again, or replace  
with a new steamer bonnet.
