PROBLEM POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
The Steam Mop
isn’t producing
any steam.
The Steam Mop should be securely plugged into an electrical outlet.
Check your fuse or circuit breaker or try a different outlet.
Make sure the water tank is full, the unit is plugged in, and the light
around the Steam Control button is solid.
If the lights below the Steam Control Button are not illuminated, try a
different electrical outlet.
If the lights below the Steam Control Button are blinking, press the
Steam Control button to select a Steam setting.
If the lights below the Steam Control Button are solid, wait 30 seconds for the
unit to warm up.
If after following the above steps the Steam Mop still does not produce any
steam, contact Customer Service at 1-800-798-7398 or consumer-services
at sharkninja.com
The Steam Mop
is producing
intermittent
steam.
This is normal—for more consistent steam select the HI setting.
Also, make sure the water tank is full.
I can’t select a
Steam Setting.
Make sure the Steam Mop is plugged in and the lights below the Steam
Control Button are solid.
If your Steam Mop is producing steam but the lights below the Steam
Control Button are not lit, call customer service at 1-800-798-7398.
I am getting
streaky/cloudy
floors.
The Dirt Grip™ Pad might be dirty. If it is, flip it over to the clean side
or change it entirely. If you washed the Dirt Grip Pad with powdered
detergent, then it could be damaged and require replacement.
This could also be an indication of soap or grease residue that has
accumulated on the floor. As the Steam Mop uses only a small amount of
water, it may not be enough to rinse off the accumulation of residue 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 Dirt Grip Pad. One or more rinses will generally remove the residue.
A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a mix of
one part vinegar and two parts water* (but DO NOT put any cleaning
solutions or chemicals into the Steam Mop's water tank.)
* Please consult your flooring manufacturer’s care and maintenance
instructions before applying any cleaning products or solutions.
It’s really hard
for me to
push/pull the
Steam Mop.
The Steam Mop might be hard to push/pull if the Dirt Grip Pad isn’t wet
enough. It should get easier to push/pull the Steam Mop after it’s been
running for a few minutes.
An overly dirty pad could also result in a harder push/pull experience.
We recommend flipping the pad over or using a clean pad.

Our washable Dirt Grip Pads are made with fibers specially designed to absorb and trap dirt.

PAD CARE

water using liquid detergent.

OR FABRIC SOFTENERS as they may damage
the Dirt Grip Pads.
