Before you clean

Thoroughly sweep or vacuum floor prior to 

cleaning with the PowerFresh™ Steam Mop.

Cleaning hard floors

Your PowerFresh™ Steam Mop is designed to 

clean hard flooring such as ceramic tile, vinyl, lami-

nate, marble, stone and sealed hard wood floors. 

Use of your PowerFresh Steam Mop on waxed or 

some unwaxed floors may result in a diminished 

glossiness. The PowerFresh Steam Mop is not for 

use on unsealed wood floors. For best results test in 

an inconspicuous area and check the care instruc-

tions from your flooring manufacturer.

1.

  Plug the unit in and wait 30 seconds for it to 

heat up. Choose the level of steam to clean 

your floor: Low (delicate floors), Medium 

(regular cleaning), High (durable floors or 

sticky messes). Begin cleaning by slowly 

passing the unit over the floor surface.

2.

  To sanitize an area of your floor, (attack  

invisible germs and bacteria) place the  

PowerFresh Steam Mop over the spot for  

a minimum 15 seconds using continuous 

steam, but no longer than 20 seconds 

using continuous steam. For larger areas, 

overlap swivel head placement. 

3.

  Use your foot to press and lock the Easy 

Scrubber brush to thoroughly clean grout, 

crevices and sticky messes. Slowly move 

the brushes over the sticky mess or grout 

to remove.

4.

  When the PowerFresh™ Steam Mop  

stops emitting steam, unplug the unit. 

Simply remove the water tank, refill,  

and continue cleaning.

Carpet Refresher Attachment 

This accessory is recommended for the refreshing 

of carpets. Once the steam mop is cradled in the 

carpet refresher attachment, it will easily glide 

over the carpet. 

NOTE: Always be sure a mop pad is in 

place before placing in carpet refresher 

attachment. Only white mop pads 

should be used with the carpet attach-

ment. do not use carpet attachment on 

spots or stains, or glide it over the same 

spot for no longer than 20 seconds.

WARNING:

 

Never put descaling, alcoholic,  

or detergent products into  

the steam cleaner, as this  

may damage it or make it 

unsafe for use.

WARNING:

 

Tinted plates on foot may get 

hot while steam mop is in use. 

Do not touch while hot.
