Your portable Steam Pocket®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.
When assembling your portable Steam Pocket®, there
may be a little water in the water tank. This is because
we test all our portable Steam Pocket®cleaning systems
100% before you buy them, so you get a quality Shark®
steam product.

IMPORTANT: Always make sure the steam
bottle is UNPLUGGED from the electrical outlet
when not in use. Never fill the water reservoir
when the unit is plugged in.

Using Your Portable Steam Pocket®
DIRECT SPRAY STEAM BOTTLE USE
Cleaning Tip: Direct steam spray for cleaning hard to
reach nooks & crannies and stubborn sticky messes
where focused steam power may be needed. Direct
steam spray 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. Spray direct steam
and wipe clean with a cleaning cloth.
CAUTION: Direct steam spray temperature is
extremely hot closest to the nozzle and can
damage surfaces if held directly focusing in
one spot too long. Be sure to constantly move
and adjust the steam spray to avoid causing
damage.
1 Attach the Steam Bottle Nozzle. Aligning the arrow
located on the Steam Bottle Nozzle with the Un-Lock
symbol located on the Nozzle Connector. Press in
and turn clockwise to secure into place. The arrow
on the nozzle will align with the Lock symbol.
2 To remove the Steam Bottle Nozzle, turn
anticlockwise to unlock and remove.
1 Attach the hose connector. Aligning the arrow located
on the hose connector with the un-lock symbol
located on the nozzle connector. Press in and turn
clockwise to secure into place. The arrow on the hose
connector will align with the lock symbol.
2To remove the hose, press in and turn the hose
connector anticlockwise to unlock and remove.
3Select the desired cleaning tool for use. Follow
the cleaning tool sub assembly instructions for the
selected tool.
4Attach the cleaning tool by inserting the hose stem
into the handle of the cleaning tool. Press in and
turn clockwise at the same time to secure and
press in and turn anticlockwise to release.
Check for proper connection by turning the handle
anticlockwise a few turns. The handle should remain
connected. (Note for reference: This connection
method is the same design used with most over
the counter prescription bottles). The design of this
connection is to prevent the hose from twisting and
kinking during use.

WEDGE CLEANING TOOL ASSEMBLY
5Slide the wedge shaped cleaning pocket over the
wedge cleaning tool frame until it is completely on.
6Secure the cleaning pocket onto the frame. Close the
cinch by pulling on the elastic band and sliding the
locking bean to tighten.
Cleaning Tip: The wedge cleaning pocket was designed
for cleaning a variety of surfaces and is exceptional on
those that are large and flat, both horizontal and vertical.
Broad cleaning sides and super absorbent microfibre
fabrics loosen, lift, and lock in dirt and grime while
sanitising at the same time.
Cleaning Tip: The wedge tip and squared edges reach
into tight areas often missed or difficult to reach with
traditional cleaning methods. The wedge sides concave
to wrap around sink and faucet fixtures, door knobs,
and other small curved surfaces leaving them clean all
around. Multiple sides provide more surface cleaning
area and allow one to clean with one side and finish
with the other for a “NOW YOU KNOW THAT’S CLEAN”
performance. Surface examples for use are countertops,
tabletops, cabinets, walls, floor spot cleaning, bathroom
fixtures and more.
CAUTION: It is recommended that you allow the
cleaning pockets to cool off before removing
them from the wedge or cylinder tools to avoid
possible scalding injury.

CYLINDER CLEANING TOOL ASSEMBLY
1Squeeze “chopsticks” together and slide the cylinder
shaped cleaning pocket over the cylinder cleaning
tool frame until it is completely on.
2Secure the cleaning pocket onto the frame. Close the
cinch by pulling on the elastic band and sliding the
locking bean to tighten.
Using Your Portable Steam Pocket®- cont’d
Cleaning Tip: The thin cylinder shape provides
controlled cleaning and reaches into narrow areas,
around curved and contoured surfaces for steam
dusting and fine cleaning activities. Specialised dusting
cleaning pockets provide gentle cleaning of surfaces,
objects, and furniture while reaching into crevices and
corners. It is a great cleaning tool for in and around
window sills, door jams and frames, exhaust and intake
vents, banisters, railings, spindles, furniture, seating,
patio furniture, and more.

1 Press fit the shower door squeegee attachment onto
the detail cleaning handle.
HOSE & CLEANING TOOL ATTACHMENT USE
Cleaning Tip: Versatile cleaning tools provide multi-
purpose and task specific cleaning solutions for quick

forgotten with the power of super heated steam.
CAUTION: Always avoid any sudden changes in
temperature to prevent breakage or cracks.

DETAIL SCRUBBING BRUSH ATTACHMENT
1 Press fit the detail scrubbing brush onto the detail
cleaning handle.
GARMENT STEAMER ATTACHMENT
CAUTION: Always determine colour fastness
of any fabric, especially with reds or blues.
Taking a clean, moist, warm towel and gently
rubbing a small area on the fabric that is out of
sight and out of the way as possible. If colour
bleeds onto the towel, you may need to have
the piece professionally cleaned.
1 Press fit the garment steamer onto the bottle nozzle.
2 For garment steaming, stretch the garment steamer
bonnet over the garment steamer diffuser.
3 For garment brush, attach directly onto the
garment steamer diffuser by aligning the bottom
of the diffuser with the back of the garment brush
attachment. Gently push the top of the garment
brush up into place over the bonnet until the
attachment snaps into place.
Note: It is recommended that the bonnet be used
at all times to assure a dry steam and prevent
condensation.
3
Cleaning Tip: The scrubbing brush attachment is
great for hard to reach areas and for breaking up
heavily soiled and dried on messes. Allow plenty of time
for steam heat and moisture to penetrate the surface
as it dislodges the mess for wiping. It can be especially
useful in the bathroom and shower area loosening
scum build-up on tile and grout. Select either of the
cleaning pocket tools to clean, sanitise, and wipe up
excess moisture and residue.
NOTE: The detail scrubbing brush is most effective when
applying light pressure. Let the super heated steam and
the bristle tips do the work for you. The sides of the
bristles are not effective for scrubbing. If you apply too
much force, you will bend and deform the bristles.
Tip: For freshening upholstery and removing wrinkles
from clothing, fabrics, and drapes.

GENERATING STEAM
CAUTION: Steam is hot and can cause burns,
so please use with caution.
1Plug the unit in and wait about 30 to 45 seconds
then press and hold the steam trigger to activate the
pump. You will immediately hear steam generating
and begin to see visible results either from the nozzle
or the attached cleaning tool. It is recommended
that you wait at least 30 seconds before pulling the
trigger as this will minimise water spitting.
2Once you release the steam trigger, the pump will
stop delivering water to the boiler and the steam will
reduce to a stop when the boiler becomes empty.
3For wedge and cylinder cleaning pockets, allow the
bottle to generate enough steam to activate the
cleaning fabric. Once you see visible steam emitting
through the fabric, your cleaning pocket is ready to
use. Some messes, particularly those that are sticky
may require more moisture, so allow more steam
to generate and exhaust from the cleaning pocket
before cleaning.
WARNING: Your portable Steam Pocket®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, 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.
IMPORTANT: Once plugged in, the Blue LED
will illuminate, and your portable Steam
Pocket®cleaning system will be ready to use
within 30 seconds.
NOTE: Make sure surfaces are free of crumbs and
debris before using the portable steam pocket.
Large objects may not be picked up by the Steam
Pocket®and will only be pushed around.

Care of Your Portable Steam Pocket®
CLEANING THE NOZZLES
1 Your portable Steam Pocket®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 the provided nozzle cleaner or 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 illustrations above.
4Move the wire back and forth several times to
remove any deposits.
5Plug in the appliance to the power outlet and test to
note steam output.
STORAGE
1Let the appliance cool down before cleaning or
storing.
2Empty the water tank after each use.
3Store in a cool dry location.
CLEANING THE STEAM BOTTLE
1A periodic rinse of your steam cleaner will help free
it from normal water deposits. This is recommended
every 10-15 fillings to free up any scale deposit. Fill
the reservoir with water and secure the cap. Shake
vigorously for approximately 10-15 times and remove
the cap to empty the reservoir.
Cleaning tip: To prevent clogging, it is recommended
that you periodically clean the Direct Steam Nozzle and
the extension hose stem with the cleaning tool provided
or a paper clip.
WARNING: The hose stem becomes very hot during
operation and can cause burns. Do not operate
the portable Steam Pocket
®
without the proper
cleaning tools attached securely as instructed.
CAUTION: This appliance must be unplugged
from electrical outlet and allowed to cool
down before storage or cleaning.
DECALCIFYING YOUR STEAM BOTTLE
Calcium and mineral deposits can build up and impact
the performance of your steam bottle over time. To
extend the life of your product we recommend that you
use distilled water.
Cleaning tip: To prevent clogging, it is recommended
that you periodically clean the Concentrator Nozzle and
the Accessory Hose stem with the cleaning tool provided
or a paper clip.
CARE OF YOUR CLEANING POCKETS
AND/OR PADS
IMPORTANT: The pocket or pad may be
very hot from the steam. Use caution when
removing. Let the unit cool for 2-3 minutes.
1We recommend washing your pocket or pad
separately from other fabrics to
avoid picking up lint. Only use liquid
detergent (no powder detergent).
Do not use any fabric softeners or
bleach. Line dry. Do not tumble dry.
2If there are loose threads on the cleaning pad
carefully cut the thread with scissors. Do not pull on
them or cut at the base.
