Tips On How To Use Your Steam
Cleaner
Water
Window, Glass Surfaces and Mirrors
1. To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another appliance on the same socket
(circuit)
Use the window squeegee. Work with the
steam on using top to bottom movements.
Use the squeegee with the steam to clear
the water from the glass. To do this without
leaving streaks, use lateral movements
from the top to the bottom of the surface.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15 ampere 14 gage cord should
be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to
arrange cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
3. Do not leave unattended when the system is connected to a power
supply/electrical outlet.
•
Use tap water for all your cleaning
needs.
•
However, if you live in an area with
hard water, use demineralized/
distilled water when steaming light
colored fabrics to eliminate the
possibility of hard water stains.
Fiberglass or Stainless Steel Surfaces
Use the nylon detail brush. Slowly move
the brush over the surface to be cleaned.
The steam will emulsify the dirt and
grease on the surface. Follow behind
with a 100% cotton towel to remove
excess moisture and residue.
Tip: An old idea for polishing stainless
steel is to wipe it down with seltzer soda
water after it is cleaned.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Do NOT add cleaning
solutions, scented perfumes,
oils or any other chemicals to
the water used in this
appliance. Use tap water or
distilled/purified water if the tap
water in your area is very hard.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
WARNING: This appliance is equipped with a grounded-
type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This plug
will only fit into an electrical outlet made for
a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If
the plug should fail to fit the outlet, contact
an electrician to replace the outlet. Do
Efficient Work
•

•
For vertical surfaces, wipe
always from the top down, in
this way the dirty water will not
soil surfaces already cleaned.
Avoid changing brushes back
and forth while cleaning. Start
with the smallest brush to clean
tight spots and corners first.
Wipe dirt as soon as possible,
otherwise it will dry and re-
adhere to the surface.
Soap Scum
Soap scum dissolves almost immediately
under a combination of heat and
moisture. Rinse the surface with a small
amount of water afterwards.
Note: Soap scum sometimes will develop
a hard surface from waterborne minerals.
If this is the case, use the detail brush to
break up this surface - or spray or wipe
first with lemon, vinegar or seltzer soda
water to soften the minerals.
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of
the grounding pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
Moving too slowly can dry out the soap
scum and cause it to granulate on the
surface. The surface will have a gritty
feel. If this happens, apply vapor to the
surface with the nylon detail brush again
and re-clean.
Hints
The Portable Shark Steam Cleaner
has many uses many of which will not
be mentioned in this owner's manual.
This is meant only to give you a
general idea of what can be achieved
with the unit. However, the ways in
which to use the units and the
brushes are in most cases universal.
It is most helpful to always have a
micro fiber cloth or a terry cloth
towel or paper towel ready to use
for removal of moisture and
residue. 100% white cotton towels
work best.
You can clean the brushes with your
steam cleaner. When cleaning the
detail brush, use a pair of pliers to
hold the brush or place in the basket
of your dishwasher.
Note: Wipe immediately before the
cleaned area dries. When cleaning
the oven, use the detail brush to clean
around the elements, drip trays,
cracks, crevices, and hard to reach
areas.
Bathroom Areas
To clean the bathtub or shower area, use
the detail brush for grout, shower door
tracks, hard to get areas and heavily
soiled areas. The window squeegee will
be the most efficient way to clean the rest
of the area. Allow plenty of time for the
heat to penetrate the surface. This is
especially helpful in the shower area if
there is tile or grout.
To clean sanitary fixtures, use angle
concentrator/brush adapter with or
without the nylon detail brush.
To clean the sink and faucets, use nylon
detail brush.

Care & Maintenance
Attaching the Shoulder Strap
CAUTION: This appliance must
Using the detachable shoulder strap
allows for greater freedom of movement
when both hands are needed for various
cleaning tasks. To attach the shoulder
strap to the steam cleaner, simply snap
the shoulder strap hooks onto the
connecting rings on the unit body. When
using the steam cleaner with the shoulder
strap, avoid rocking or tilting the unit
excessively as this may cause water to
enter the hose and be discharged along
with the steam.
be unplugged from the electrical
outlet and allowed to cool down
before performing any cleaning or
maintenance tasks on the unit.
•
•
Let the appliance cool down
completely before cleaning or storing.
Depress the trigger before opening
the safety cap in order to release any
residual pressure in the boiler.
Empty all water from the water tank
after each use.
•
•
•
Store in a dry, cool place.
Connecting Points
A periodic rinse of your steam cleaner
will free it from deposits. This is
recommended every 10-15 tankfulls
to free up any scale deposits. Fill the
boiler with water and shake
vigorously. Tilt the cleaner upside
down to empty the boiler of water and
any scale deposits.
Cleaning the Angle Concentrator:
Your steamer should not normally require
cleaning, however, should you notice a
marked decrease in steam output it may be
necessary to remove mineral deposit build-
up from the angle concentrator orifice.
First ensure that there is water in the tank.
If tank is empty, fill with water, (we

water), then re-start unit noting whether
steam output is normal. If steam output is
still low, follow these cleaning instructions:

Attaching a Towel to the
Floor Brush
100% white terry cloth towel can be fitted
on this brush, so as to absorb the dirt and
protect delicate surfaces.
FEATURES
Your Hand Held Steam Cleaner utilizes pressurized steam to remove tough grease,dirt
and grime. Steam is nature’s purest and most powerful cleaner for safely cleaning all
hard surfaces in your home without harsh chemicals, thus being perfectly ecological.
The appliance has various attachments so that it can be used for many purposes such
as:
1. Clean upholstery, sealed grout, bathroom/kitchen tile, stovetops.
2. Easy to clean difficult to reach areas with the angle concentrator/brush adapter such
as faucets, etc.
3. Ideal for windows, mirrors, glass doors, etc.
4. Clean fabrics, window coverings, pillows, bedding etc.
5. Clean hard surface areas such as counters, sinks, shower door tracks, etc.
Important: Please note that bristles may
break through thin towels. We recommend
that two (2) towels, laid one on top of the
other be used. This will ensure that the
brush bristles do not break through and
that the towels will be sufficiently absorbent
and retain as much dirt as possible.
Fig. D
5. Place the corner under the cloth
holder as shown in Fig. D.
WARNING: Your Hand Held Steam Cleaner is designed to clean hard
surfaces and upholstery that will withstand high heat. Do not use on soft
plastics, unsealed wood and cold glass. On surfaces that have been
treated with wax or some no wax floors, the sheen may be removed by
the heat and steam action. Do not use on unsealed wood. This could
cause the wood grain to rise. It is therefore recommended to test an
isolated area of the surface to be cleaned before proceeding.
Very Important: When installing the
towels to the floor brush, ensure that the
towels do not cover the front and the back
of the brush. (See Fig. E)
CAUTION: Do not plug in the machine during filling. Use a grounded
receptacle. Use only a heavy duty extension cord rated for 15 amps - Do
not use an ordinary extension cord.
Fig. E
6. Place the towel around the brush,
and repeat folding the towel as shown
in Fig. E. When folding the towel,
leave some slack. Do not pull tightly
around the brush, leave some
looseness.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT add cleaning solutions, scented perfumes, oils or
any other chemicals to the water used in this appliance.
Use regular water or distilled/purified water if the tap
water in your area is very hard.
Fig. A
1. Prepare white terry cloth towel:
size 8” x 17” as shown in Fig. A.
2. Place the brush on top of the towel.
NOTE: There may be a slight release of pressure when accessories are removed.
This is normal due to pressure build up inside of accessories during use.
To refill, unplug, unit from electrical outlet, depress trigger until all remaining
pressure/steam has been allowed to escape from the tank, and allow to cool for 5
minutes. Carefully open the safety cap. Once cool, refill, replace safety cap and re-plug
into electrical outlet. Resume work.
