CAUTION
The SI-35 emits steam at
212˚F to sanitize the area
of use. This means that the
steam head, Ultra-Microfiber
Pads and Gliding Attachment
get very hot during use.
Care should be taken when
using this appliance and
DO NOT touch them during
use except in the approved
manner as outlined in this
manual.
Risk of electrical shock -
be sure to read and follow
all instructions and
warnings.
WARNING

may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
19. Never put descaling, aromatic, alcoholic or detergent
products into the steam cleaner, as this may damage
it or make it unsafe for use.
20. Unplug by grasping the plug, not the cord.
21. Close attention is necessary when used by or
near children.
22. If the circuit breaker activates while using the steam
function, discontinue product use immediately and
contact the customer support center. (Beware of the
risk of electrical shock.)
23. Do not allow the product to be disassembled and/
or modified by anyone other than an authorized
service technician. (Doing so can result in fire and/
or electrical shock.)
Grounding Instructions:
The HAAN SI-35 must be connected to a grounded (3-prong)
wiring system. Grounding provides a safe path of least
resistance for electrical current, in the event the unit should
malfunction or break down, thereby reducing the risk of
electrical shock. The cord for this product has an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Do not plug it into
an outlet that is not properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you
aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded. If it will not
fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal
120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug as
illustrated above. Make certain that the appliance is connected
to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No
plug adapter should be used with this appliance.
WARNING
IMPORTANT
DO NOT modify the plug.
Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a
risk of electrical shock.

WARNING
Your floor sanitizer 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 HAAN HINT:
Never leave the appliance in
one spot on any surface for
any period of time. Always
place your Floor Sanitizer on
the Floor Protector/Resting
Mat when stationary and
make sure the floor sanitizer
is turned off not in use.
CAUTION
Use a grounded receptacle. Use only a heavy duty extension
cord rated for 15 amps minimum – DO NOT use an ordinary
extension cord. To provide continued protection against the
risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlet only.
This product is NOT for space heating purposes.
IMPORTANT
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
DO NOT add cleaning
solutions, scented perfumes,
oils or any other chemicals
to the water used in this
appliance. Use regular tap
water, or if the tap water in
your area is very hard, we
recommend you use
distilled/purified water.
Always empty water from
water tank after use.
Always be sure that your floor sanitizer is UNPLUGGED from
the wall receptacle prior to filling the water tank.
The SI-35 emits steam at 212˚F to sanitize the area of use.

Ultra-Microfiber Pads
What is an ultra-microber?
An ultra-microfiber is a textile fiber that is thinner
than a microfiber. The Ultra-Microfiber by HAAN
Corporation is 5-10 times thinner than common
microfiber providing for a significantly higher thread
count in the same surface area. The thinner and
higher the thread count, the greater the absorbtion.
HAAN’s Ultra-Microfibers are so thin that more dirt
and dust gets trapped between the fibers, making
your cleaning simpler and less time-consuming.
www.haanusa.com 877-HAAN DIRECT / 877-422-6347 pg 9
Operating Instructions: (cont)
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
After heating up, it is normal
to hear a vibration sound
from the water pump inside
the main unit. It will stop
when the air inside has been
pumped out. If the vibration
sound goes on for more
than 60 seconds, check to
be sure the water tank is
assembled correctly.
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
We recommend placing your
floor sanitizer on the Floor
Protector/Resting Pad while
the unit heats up. When the
unit is ready, lift it off of the
resting pad and simply place
the Ultra-Microfiber pad on
the floor. The ‘hook & loop’
system quickly attaches the
pad to the base of the unit.
Never push or pull the floor
sanitizer across your floor
without the Ultra-Microfiber
pad attached to the base.
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
Never leave the Ultra-
Microfiber pad on your
floor sanitizer when you
have finished using the
floor sanitizer.

WARNING
Colors may bleed during
first wash. Be careful when
machine washing or drying
with mixed fabrics as
micro-fiber cloths will pick
up lint from other fabrics.
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
You may dry your Ultra-
Microfiber pads in a machine
dryer on a low setting, but for
longer life, we recommend air
drying the pads.
Fig 5 How to Use Ultra-Microfiber Pads:
1) Please make sure that you always use completely
dried pads.
2) The Ultra-Microfber pad is made up of multiple
layers of super absorbent material. (Fig 5) The
outer layer is Ultra-Microfiber on one side and
a ‘hook & loop’ system on the other side that
attaches easily to the underside of the steam
head. Simply place the pad on the floor with the
‘hook & loop’ side up, and lightly press the SI-35
Floor Sanitizer down on the pad.
(refer back to Fig 4)
3) As high temperature steam passes through a pad
to contact the floor to kill germs, molds and mites,
it is natural that the pad gradually absorbs moisture.
After a certain length of time, the pad repels
water and becomes damp. When the pad becomes
saturated, turn the unit ‘OFF’ and wait until the
Floor Sanitizer cools down for approximately five
(5) minutes.Put your foot on a corner of the pad
and lift the Floor Sanitizer off the pad. (Fig 6)
Replace with a dry pad on the unit, turn the unit
back on and continue.
4) To keep the floor clean and dry, replace the pad
when it is dirty and/or saturated.
How to Clean and Store the HAAN
Ultra-Microfiber Pads:
1) Ultra-microfiber pads are easy to wash. Soak pads
for about 1-2 hours in cold or lukewarm water
with laundry detergent and hand wash them.You
can also drop the pads in a washing machine and
clean them using the gentle/delicate cycle. DO
NOT use fabric softener as this will compromise
the absorbancy of the microfiber. (Fig 7)
2) It is best to let the pads air dry but you can
place them in the dryer using low heat.

Glide Attachment
What is the Glide Attachment?
The Glide Attachment enables the Floor Sanitizer to
freshen, deodorize and sanitize carpeting, rugs,
upholstery, pet cushions and more. Used with the
Floor Sanitizer it kills dust mites and other allergans
in a variety of soft surfaces.
How to use the Glide Attachment:
1) The Glide Attachment is used without the Ultra-
Microfiber pad. It attaches directly to the unit by
snapping onto the bottom of the steam head.
Place the front of the steam head under the tabs
on the front of the Glide Attachment and press
down. The tray is made to fit snuggly and will
snap easily into place. (Fig 8)
2) After attaching the tray, press the ‘STEAM ON/
OFF’ button found on the front of the unit. It
takes approximately 30 seconds for the Floor
Sanitizer to heat up.
3) Push and pull the Floor Sanitizer slowly across
the carpet (or other soft surface) to thoroughly
steam clean each section. (Fig 9)
4) When there is no more water in the water tank,
you will hear a vibration sound from the main
unit. To refill the water tank and continue to
sanitize, turn your floor sanitizer off. Unplug the
unit from the electrical wall outlet and remove
the water tank and refill the water tank as before.
5) When you have finished using the Floor Sanitizer,
turn it ‘OFF’, place it on the Floor Protector/
Resting Mat and wait until the Floor Sanitizer
cools down for approximately five (5) minutes.
Remove the Glide Attachment by using your foot
to snap the attachment off the steam head. The
attachment is designed for this ‘No Touch’
method of removal. (Fig 10)
6) Store the unit upright in a protected dry area,
standing it on the Floor Protector/Resting Mat,
or by hanging it by the Storage Hook.

in place for a few seconds to allow the steam to
penetrate the area of the stain.
3) Push and pull the floor sanitizer slowly across
the area to work the steam into the stain.
4) Carefully remove the Glide Attachment by using
your foot to snap the attachment off the steam
head. The attachment is designed for this easy

5) Place a dry Ultra-Microfiber Pad ‘hook & loop’
side up and press the unit onto the pad. Use the
pad to rub the area, simultanously working at the
stain and blotting the moisture from the surface.
6) When you have finished using the unit, turn it ‘OFF’,
place it on the Floor Protector/Resting Mat and
wait until the Floor Sanitizer cools down for
approximately five (5) minutes before removing
the Ultra-Microfiber Pad from the base.

QUESTION: Can the HAAN floor sanitizer be used on
laminate flooring?
The HAAN floor sanitizer was designed for use on sensitive
flooring like laminates. We’ve spent years optimizing the
steam emission so that at nearly half the wattage of competitive
products (ours is only 800w versus most that are 1500w),
we still emit steam at 212˚F. This means our finer vapor-like
steam is gentler than those that simply blast 1500w of water
and steam onto your floor. Yet, the HANN is more effective
at penetrating stains and killing harmful germs and bacteria
than competitors. Steam is all we do, and we’ve spent years
perfecting it.
HELPFUL HAAN HINT:
For optimal performance,
the Ultra-Microfiber pad
should be changed after
10 minutes of use.
?

pg 16 877-HAAN DIRECT / 877-422-6347 www.haanusa.com
QUESTION: The HAAN Floor Sanitizer is leaving my floor
wet. Why and what can I do about it?
The Ultra-Microfiber pad may need to be changed. For
optimal performance, the pad should be changed after 10
minutes of use.
QUESTION: How long can you use an Ultra-Microfiber
Pad before it needs to be changed?
The pad should be changed every 10 minutes, or when it
becomes saturated with water. The machine will become
harder to push smoothly on the floor when the pad is
saturated.
QUESTION: How long does a tank of water last?
A full tank will last approximately 20-25 minutes.
QUESTION: Sometimes my floor sanitizer becomes hard
to push – why?
If the unit is hard to push it is likely because the Ultra-
Microfiber Pad is too wet or the angle at which you are using
the machine is too high. The lower the handle, the easier the
floor sanitizer is to push across the floor.
QUESTION: Do I have to use distilled water in my HAAN
floor sanitizer?
We recommend distilled water, but you may use tap water,
unless you have hard water in your area. Using hard water
will shorten the life of your appliance.

carpet?
The carpet tray is to be used without the microfiber pad and
can be attached directly to the unit.
QUESTION: How long can I prolong the life of my HAAN?
To maintain the life of your floor sanitizer, we recommend
using HAAN’s Tank Rejuvenator (available on our web site)
every six months.
QUESTION: Does the HAAN work on pet stains?
Yes, the HAAN is able to spot clean fresh pet stains by
loosening and lifting the stain.
QUESTION: Will the HAAN floor sanitizer clean grout?
Yes, but it needs a little help. If you glide your HAAN over
the problem grout areas and then scrub with your microfiber
pad, it should effectively clean your grout.
