Shark S3973WM Quick Start Guide

To assemble the Shark S3973WM Mop, attach the handle by inserting it into the body of the mop until it clicks. Then, connect the water tank to the main unit. Ensure all parts are securely fastened.
Remove the water tank by lifting it straight up. Open the cap and fill the tank with distilled water up to the max fill line. Replace the cap and reattach the tank securely to the mop.
Change the mop pads after each use to maintain hygiene and cleaning efficiency. Wash the pads in a washing machine with warm water and mild detergent. Air dry for best results.
If the mop isn't producing steam, ensure the water tank is filled and properly attached. Check for any blockages in the steam nozzle and clean it if necessary. Also, verify that the mop is plugged in and turned on.
No, it's recommended to use only distilled water in the Shark S3973WM Mop to prevent damage. Adding cleaning solutions can clog the system and void the warranty.
To descale, mix equal parts of water and white vinegar. Fill the water tank halfway with the solution and run the mop until the tank is empty. Rinse with distilled water to remove any residue.
After use, unplug the mop and let it cool down. Empty any remaining water from the tank. Wrap the cord around the hooks provided and store the mop in an upright position.
Streaks can occur if the mop pad is dirty or if too much water is used. Ensure the pad is clean and dry, and use distilled water. Clean the floor in a consistent motion without over-wetting.
To replace the mop pads, unplug the mop and let it cool. Remove the used pad by pulling it off the mop head. Attach a new pad by aligning it with the mop head and pressing down until it is secure.
Regularly check the mop for blockages and clean the steam nozzle. Wash the mop pads after every use and descale the unit monthly if used frequently. Always use distilled water to extend the life of the mop.
