TIPS ON HOW TO USE YOUR SYSTEM
Fiberglass or Stainless Steel Surfaces
Use the bristle brush. Slowly move the
brush over the surface to be cleaned.
The vapor will emulsify the dirt and
grease on the surface. Follow behind
with a terry cloth towel over the brush 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.
Bathroom Areas
To clean the bathtub or shower area, use
the bristle 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. Wipe with towel.
Removal of soap scum on tile, grout, and
shower doors is also easier with the
steam cleaner.
To clean sanitary fixtures, use the
concentrator with or without bristle brush.
Use a terry cloth towel or paper towel to
wipe up excess moisture and residue.
To clean the sink and faucets, use bristle
brush then finish by wiping with a towel.
Soap Scum
Soap scum dissolves almost immediately
under a combination of heat and
moisture. Rinse the surface with a small
amount of water afterwards or go back
over it once more with a clean terry cloth
towel.
Note:
Soap scum sometimes will
develop a hard surface from waterborne
minerals. If this is the case, use the
bristle brush to break up this surface - or
spray or wipe first with lemon, vinegar or
seltzer soda water to soften the minerals.
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 bristle brush again and
re-clean.
Garden Furniture
Use any of the brushes depending on the
surface area. Work quickly when
cleaning resin outdoor furniture. Finish by
wiping with a towel.
Blinds
Use the nylon bristle brush to clean
blinds. Move the brush over the
surface, allowing enough time for the
vapor to penetrate. Work quickly on
PVC blinds. Test for color fastness on
fabric blinds before using. Finish by
wiping with a towel.
Artificial Plants
Use the concentrator without a brush
attached to blow off the dust and dirt.
Clothing
A vapor cleaning system is excellent for
removing wrinkles from fabrics. Simply
"vaporize" the surface from a distance
(12"-18"). The dry vapor removes
wrinkles without leaving the fabric wet
like ordinary fabric steamers do. Stretch
the fabric to smooth out the wrinkles.
Nicotine and Tar
Nicotine and tar dissolves at high
temperatures and becomes a light
yellow oil that has the consistency of
sewing machine oil. When the
nicotine/tar film is touched by steam
pocket, it immediately dissolves and
flows into the steam pocket towel. You
can remove it from flat surfaces as fast
as you can move the steam pocket over
the surface.
Removing Wax, Tar, Etc.
Many stains are only stuck on the
surface of materials and can be easily
and quickly removed by "blowing"
excess material away from the surface
from the side. This is accomplished by
using the concentrator. Hold the terry
cloth towel to the side to catch the loose
residue as it is blown by the
concentrator.
Note: Always vacuum any loose
residue off the surface before you apply
vapor to it.

Hints
The steam cleaner has many uses that
have not been mentioned. This was
meant only to give you a general idea of
what can be achieved with the unit.
However, the ways in which to use the
attachments and brushes are in most
cases universal. It is most helpful to
always have 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
bristle brushes, use a pair of pliers to
hold and blow dirt as above or place in
the basket of your dishwasher.
Note:
Wipe with a towel immediately
before the cleaned area dries. When
cleaning the oven, use the bristle brush
to clean around the elements and drip
trays. Use the bristle brush for cracks,
crevices, and hard to reach areas.
ORDERING SUPPLIES
If you need to order supplies such as steam pocket towels, please call the
customer service number at 1 (800) 798-7398 or visit our website at
www.sharkcompany.com.
Refrigerator - Use the concentrator to
blow away dirt in the ice machine and
on door seals. The vapor will not dry
out or crack the seals as chemicals
often do. Can openers and other
kitchen equipment can be easily
cleaned with the bristle brush to get into
all the nooks and crannies. Mold stains
around door gaskets can be removed
with the bristle brush.
To clean microwaves or other small
appliances use the nylon bristle brush
for small areas.
Note:
When cleaning small electrical
appliances always unplug them from
outlet before cleaning. Do not direct
steam into any openings of the
appliances.
To clean counter tops, use the soap
brush. For heavily soiled areas, use the
soap brush with the soap solution first in
order to loosen the debris, then use the
scrubbing pads. Always rinse with the
steam cleaner and then wipe dry with a
terry cloth towel to finish.
