How to troubleshoot a Shark S3251 Steam Cleaner that will not turn on?
Your Shark steam mop should be securely plugged into an electrical outlet only. Check your fuse or breaker.
Why are my floors cloudy after using Shark S3251 Steam Cleaner?
If your floors appear cloudy, streaky, or spotty after steaming with your Shark Steam Cleaner, the cleaning pad might be dirty. Try changing the cleaning pad. If you washed the pad with powder detergent, it could be damaged and need replacement. This issue could also indicate prior soap or grease residue on the floor. Because the steam mop uses 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. Consider rinsing the floor with just water, letting it dry, and then steam mopping again with a clean pad. A stubborn case may require rinsing the floor with a mix of one part vinegar and two parts water.
What to do if Shark S3251 Steam Cleaner leaves water on the floor?
If your Shark Light & Easy™ Steam Mop leaves water on the floor, check if the cleaning pad is too wet. It's recommended to unplug the steam mop and change the cleaning pad. Also, ensure that the cleaning pad is attached correctly.
Why is my Shark S3251 hard to push?
If your Shark Light & Easy™ Steam Mop is hard to push, ensure the steam pad is attached correctly. Check to see if the cleaning pad is excessively dirty. Replace the pad if it is too dirty or wet.
Why did my Shark Steam Cleaner leave a white spot on the floor?
If your Shark Light & Easy™ Steam Mop left a white spot on the floor, avoid leaving your steam mop on the floor with a damp or wet cleaning pad. If you’re using tap water, it is recommended to switch to distilled water. Make sure the cap is secured on the water tank.
