A good amount of steam passes through  
the Ultra-Microfiber Pad. We recommend  
that the Ultra-Microfiber Pad be changed

linoleum floors, pre-treat with a mild  
detergent and some water before using the

Ultra-Microfiber Pads for HAAN® Steam Cleaners  
What is an Ultra-Microfiber?  
An Ultra-Microfiber is a textile fiber that is thinner and more absorbent than a micro-  
fiber (1.0dtex) pad typically used with steam mops. Specifically, to be defined as an  
Ultra-Microfiber, it should be less than 0.2dtex. The Ultra-Microfiber pad by HAAN  
Corporation is made of .17dtex Ultra-Microfibers.  
How to Use Ultra-Microfiber Pads  
1.  
2.  
Please make sure that a completely dry pad is used.  
As high temperature steam passes through a pad to contact the floor  
to kill germs, molds, mites and to provide a certain amount of water  
necessary for cleaning, it is natural that the pad gradually absorbs  
moisture. After a certain length of time, the pad repels water and  
becomes damp.  
3.  
4.  
To keep the floor clean and dry, replace the pad when it is dirty.  
Only remove pad from unit when not in use and steam is not being  
emitted.  
How to Clean and Store  
1.  
Hand wash or machine wash the Ultra-Microfiber Pad in cold water  
on the delicate cycle with a mild detergent. (Do not use a  
fabric softener)  
2.  
3.  
Using a washing machine may shorten the lifespan of the pads.  
We recommend air drying the Ultra-Microfiber Pad for 24 hours, but  
they could be dried in a dryer on a low heat setting.

Before Using Your Steam Cleaner  
Be sure to read ALL instructions and warnings before using  
your steam cleaner.  
WARNING  
Your steam cleaner 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.  
Helpful Hint:

place your steam cleaner on the  
Floor Protector/Resting Mat when  
stationary.

tank after use. To ensure opti-  
mum product function use Fresh

Commonly Asked Questions  
Q: Can the HAAN® Steam Cleaner be used on laminate flooring?  
A: Yes. Your steam mop was designed to be gentle on delicate flooring, yet powerful  
enough to penetrate stains and kill harmful germs and bacteria.  
It is recommended that the flooring manufacturer be contacted to see if it is OK to  
clean the floor with steam. Leaving the steam mop sitting in one spot while steaming  
could result in discoloration of flooring.  
Q: How long can an Ultra-microfiber Pad be used until it needs to be changed?  
A: The pad should be changed every 10 minutes, or when it becomes saturated with  
water. The unit will become harder to push with a overly wet pad.  
Q: How long does a tank of water last?  
A: A full tank will last approximately 20-25 minutes.  
Q: Sometimes my steam cleaner becomes hard to push - why?  
A: If the unit is hard to push its likely because the Ultra-Microfiber Pad is too wet or  
the angle at which you are using the machine is too high.  
Q: Does the HAAN® work on pet stains?  
A: Yes, the HAAN® is able to spot clean fresh pet stains by loosening and lifting the  
stain.  
Q: How can I prolong the life of my HAAN®  
?
A: To maintain the life of your unit, we recommend using the Fresh Rinse™ once a  
month.  
Q: Will the HAAN® Steam Cleaner clean grout?  
A: Yes, but it needs a little help. If you glide your HAAN® over the problem areas and  
then scrub with your Ultra-Microfiber Pad, it should effectively clean your grout. How-  
ever, it will not remove discoloration as this has been absorbed into the grout.
