STEAM MOP ASSEMBLY
1Insert the Mop Handle end with the “ “ facing the
front of the unit into the handheld steamer. Push the
mop handle in until you hear it click into place. (fig. 1)
2Select the Rectangle or Triangle mop head and the
desired cleaning pocket. Fit one side of the pocket
onto the head first, then using the loop, pull the
pocket over the head. Attach the quick fasteners on
the top of the pocket to secure in place.
3Snap the mop head into the mop body by lining up

groove on the back of the mop head. Push until you
hear it latch into place. Press the release button to
remove or change the mop head. (fig. 2)

7 8FREEPHONE 0800 862 0453 www.sharkclean.eu
Your Shark®Multi-Function Steam Pocket®Mop
Lite 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.
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.
Using Your Handheld Steamer
1To remove the Handheld Steamer, press and hold
down the Handle Release Button while pulling out
the handle. (fig. 10)
2To remove the mop head, press the mop head
release button and pull the mop head off. (fig. 10)
fig. 10
6Use the shaggy side of the cleaning pockets to lift
up and lock away all the dirt and debris and the
scrubbing side to break up the tough stains. (fig. 7)
7When 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 8. This
applies to switching the mop head or cleaning pocket
as well.
NOTE: Please wait 2-3 minutes for the Steam Mop
to cool off before switching the mop head or the
cleaning pocket. Never leave the Steam Mop with a
damp/wet cleaning pocket on any floor.
8When you are done, press the power button to turn
the steam mop off.
Using Your Carpet Glider
THE CARPET GLIDER
1The Carpet Glider can be used with the Rectangular
Head to lightly steam your carpet and area rugs.

attached into the glider. (fig. 8)
2Move the Steam Mop back and forth across a
section of the carpet. (fig. 9)

USING THE CONCENTRATOR NOZZLE
Cleaning Tip: The Concentrator Nozzle creates direct
steam spray to clean and sanitise hard to reach nooks
& crannies and other places where germs may build
up. Use the Concentrator 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.
1Attach the Concentrator Nozzle by pressing the
nozzle onto the Accessory Hose until it clicks into
place. (fig. 13)
2Press the power button to start the steamer.
For effective cleaning, hold the steam output nozzle
1-2 inches away from the surface you’re cleaning.
CAUTION: Do not press the power button until
the Concentrator Nozzle is snapped into the
accessory hose of your Handheld Steamer.
3To remove the Concentrator Nozzle, press and hold
the accessory release button, then pull it out of the
Accessory Hose.
CAUTION: Do not press the power button while
removing the Concentrator Nozzle. Avoid
touching the tip of the Concentrator Nozzle, as
this will be very hot after steaming.
NOTE: The Handheld Steamer may continue to emit
steam for a few seconds after the power button is
pressed to turn the unit off. This is normal, and the
steaming will eventually come to a stop.
CAUTION: Do not press the power button while
attaching or removing the Accessory Hose.
CAUTION: Do not use the Accessory Hose
without cleaning tools attached.
1First attach the Accessory Hose to the Handheld
Steamer by snapping the Accessory Hose into the
main nozzle. (fig. 11)
2 Select the desired cleaning tool for use. Follow the
cleaning tool sub-assembly instructions for the
selected tool. (fig. 12)
3To remove the Accessory Hose, press and hold
down the Handheld Release Buttons. Then slide out
the Accessory Hose using the grip.

3Remove the cleaning pocket from the mop head by
releasing the quick fasteners and using the loop on
the side of the pocket, avoiding contact with the hot
pocket or dirt.
4 Empty the water tank before storage. Remove the
water tank cap and empty the tank over a sink.
Replace the water cap.
5To store the Shark®Multi-Function Steam
Pocket®Mop Lite hanging up, first remove the head
(after it has cooled and the steam has been released)
then hang on a large hook. (fig. 16)
USING THE WINDOW SQUEEGEE
Cleaning Tip: To use the window squeegee, work with
the vapor jet down using top to bottom movements. To do
this without leaving streaks, use lateral movements from
the top to the bottom of the surface.
CAUTION: Always avoid any sudden changes in
temperature to prevent breakage of cracks in
windows.
1Attach the Window Squeegee by snapping into the
handle of the Accessory Hose until it clicks into
place. (fig. 15)
2Press the power button to start steaming.
3To remove the Window Squeegee, press and hold
down the Accessory release button. Then slide out
the Window Squeegee.
CAUTION: Turn the unit off before attaching or
removing the Window Squeegee.
USING THE GROUT SCRUBBER
Cleaning Tip: The Grout Scrubber is designed for
removing stubborn messes in hard-to-reach nooks,
corners and in grout where focused scrubbing power
may be needed. It can loosen and dislodge compact dirt
often found in corners and tight places where traditional
methods and cleaning tools tend to push dirt into,
making it difficult to reach and clean. Scrub with the
Grout Scrubber and wipe clean with a cleaning cloth.
1Attach the Grout Scrubber by snapping into the handle
of the Accessory Hose until it clicks into place.
(fig. 14)
2Press the power button to start steaming.
3To remove the Grout Scrubber, press and hold
down the Accessory release button. Then slide out
the tool out.
CAUTION: Turn the unit off before attaching or
removing the Grout Scrubber.

Troubleshooting Guide
PROBLEM POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
The Shark®Multi-Function
Steam Pocket®Lite Mop
will not turn-on.
Your steam mop should be securely plugged into an electrical outlet only.
Check your fuse or breaker.
The unit will not make
steam.
Is there water in the water tank? If not, add water to your steam mop following
instructions on page 8.
When using the unit in the handheld mode, ensure that you are holding the
handheld unit horizontally to optimise the steam output. Do not hold the
handheld unit vertically as this will impede steam production. Use the hose with
your chosen accessory to reach difficult areas and above floor cleaning whilst
maintaining the horizontal position of the handheld unit.
If the unit still does not make steam, follow the instructions on page 13 to clean
the nozzle.
The Shark®Multi-Function
Steam Pocket®Lite Mop
leaves water on the floor.
Check to see if your cleaning pocket is too wet. We recommend you unplug the
steam mop and change the cleaning pocket.
Make sure the cleaning pocket is attached correctly.
The Shark®Multi-Function
Steam Pocket®Lite Mop left
a white spot on the floor.
Do not leave your steam mop on the floor with a damp or wet cleaning pocket.
If you’re using tap water, we recommend switching to distilled water.
Make sure the cap is securely on the water tank.
Floors are cloudy, streaky
or spotty after steaming.
The cleaning pocket might be dirty. Flip or change the cleaning pocket.
If you washed the cleaning pocket with powder detergent, then your pocket
could be damaged and require replacement. Replacement pockets are available
at www.sharkclean.eu.
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 pocket. One or more
rinses generally removes the residue.
A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a mix of one part
vinegar and two parts water.
The Shark®Multi-Function
Steam Pocket®Lite Mop is
hard to push.
Make sure the cleaning pocket is attached correctly.
Check to see if the cleaning pocket is excessively dirty. If so, replace the
cleaning pocket.
DECALCIFYING YOUR STEAM MOP
Calcium and mineral deposits can build up and
impact the performance of your steam mop
over time. To extend the life of your product we
recommend that you use distilled water.
CARE OF YOUR CLEANING POCKETS
1We recommend washing your cleaning pocket
separately from other fabrics to avoid picking up lint.
For optimal cleaning performance, the pockets may
need to be washed up to (3) three times. Only use
liquid detergent (no powder detergent). Do not
use any fabric softeners or bleach. Line dry. Do
not tumble dry. (fig. 17)
2If there are loose threads on the cleaning pocket,
carefully cut the thread with scissors. Do not pull on
them or cut at the base. (fig. 18)
IMPORTANT: The cleaning pocket may be
very hot from the steam. Use caution when
removing. Let the unit cool for 2-3 minutes.
fig. 17
fig. 18
fig. 19
CLEANING THE NOZZLE
NOTE: To prevent clogging, it is recommended that
you periodically clean the Direct Steam Nozzle and
the extension hose stem.
1Your 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.
2Unplug the cleaner from the electrical outlet.
3Use 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. 19)
4Move the wire back and forth several times to remove
any deposits.
5Plug in the appliance to the power outlet and test
steam output.
