    Operations
    8
    before you clean
    thoroughly sweep or vacuum floor 
    prior to cleaning with the steam  
    mop select.
    cleaning hard floors
    your steam mop select is designed  
    to clean hard flooring such as 
    ceramic tile, vinyl, laminate, marble, 
    stone and sealed hard wood floors. 
    use of your steam mop select on 
    waxed or some unwaxed floors may 
    result in a diminished glossiness. 
    the steam mop select is not for use 
    on unsealed wood floors. for best 
    results test in an inconspicuous area 
    and check the care instructions from 
    your flooring manufacturer.
    1.  Plug the unit in and wait 30 seconds for 
    it to heat up. Begin cleaning by slowly 
    passing over surface while pressing the 
    steam on demand trigger to emit steam  
    as needed.
    2.  To sanitize an area of your floor, (attack 
    invisible germs and bacteria) place the 
    Steam Mop Select over the spot for a 
    minimum of 15 seconds using continuous 
    steam, but no longer than 20 seconds 
    using continuous steam. For larger 
    areas, overlap swivel head placement. 
    important: sanitizing on timber floors 
    is not recommended as prolonged 
    application of steam in one area 
    increases the risk of damage to the 
    surface treatment on timber floors, 
    especially in areas with regular 
    foot traffic and direct sunlight, 
    which will wear down timber floor 
    surface treatments making it more 
    susceptible to steam damage. see 
    caution to the right.
    3.  When the Steam Mop Select stops 
    emitting steam, unplug the unit. Simply 
    remove the water tank, refill, and 
    continue cleaning.
    WaRning:   Never put descaling, alcoholic,   
    or detergent products into the   
    steam cleaner, as this may   
    damage it or make it unsafe for   
    use. Only use BISSELL authorized 
    aromatic products.
    caution:   Exercise extreme care when using 
    the Steam Mop Select on timber 
    flooring. Ensure the Steam Mop 
    Select an inconspicuous area 
    prior to mopping a large floor 
    area. The Steam Mop Select 
    generates hot steam, so when 
    depressing the trigger to apply 
    steam, ensure the Steam Mop 
    Select is moving continuously. 
    The trigger does not need to be 
    depressed at all times. Prolonged 
    application of steam in one area 
    increases the risk of damage to 
    the surface treatment on timber 
    floors. Check with your timber 
    floor treatment application 
    specialist prior to Steam Mop 
    Select operation. Regular foot 
    traffic and direct sunlight will 
    wear down timber floor surface 
    treatment making it more 
    susceptible to steam damage. 
    Exercise extreme care when   
    using the Steam Mop Select on 
    timber flooring.

    area with vinegar.
