Ultra-Microfiber Pads for HAAN® Steam Cleaners
What is an Ultra-Microfiber?
An Ultra-Microfiber is a textile fiber that is thinner and more absorbent than a micro-
fiber (1.0dtex) pad typically used with steam mops. Specifically, to be defined as an
Ultra-Microfiber, it should be less than 0.2dtex. The Ultra-Microfiber pad by HAAN
Corporation is made of .17dtex Ultra-Microfibers.
How to Use Ultra-Microfiber Pads
1.
2.
Please make sure that a completely dry pad is used.
As high temperature steam passes through a pad to contact the floor
to kill germs, molds, mites and to provide a certain amount of water
necessary for cleaning, it is natural that the pad gradually absorbs
moisture. After a certain length of time, the pad repels water and
becomes damp.
3.
4.
To keep the floor clean and dry, replace the pad when it is dirty.
Only remove pad from unit when not in use and steam is not being
emitted.
How to Clean and Store
1.
Hand wash or machine wash the Ultra-Microfiber Pad in cold water
on the delicate cycle with a mild detergent. (Do not use a
fabric softener)
2.
3.
Using a washing machine may shorten the lifespan of the pads.
We recommend air drying the Ultra-Microfiber Pad for 24 hours, but
they could be dried in a dryer on a low heat setting.

Your steam cleaner is designed to clean hard floor surfaces that will withstand high
heat. Do not use on unsealed wood or unglazed ceramic floors. On surfaces that
have been treated with wax or some no-wax floors, the sheen may be removed by
the heat and steam action. It is always recommended to test an isolated area of the
surface to be cleaned before proceeding. We also recommend that you check the
use and care instructions from the floor manufacturer.
Helpful Hint:

Commonly Asked Questions
Q: Can the HAAN® Steam Cleaner be used on laminate flooring?
A: Yes. Your steam mop was designed to be gentle on delicate flooring, yet powerful
enough to penetrate stains and kill harmful germs and bacteria.
It is recommended that the flooring manufacturer be contacted to see if it is OK to
clean the floor with steam. Leaving the steam mop sitting in one spot while steaming
could result in discoloration of flooring.
Q: How long can an Ultra-microfiber Pad be used until it needs to be changed?
A: The pad should be changed every 10 minutes, or when it becomes saturated with
water. The unit will become harder to push with a overly wet pad.
Q: How long does a tank of water last?
A: A full tank will last approximately 20-25 minutes.
Q: Sometimes my steam cleaner becomes hard to push - why?
A: If the unit is hard to push its likely because the Ultra-Microfiber Pad is too wet or
the angle at which you are using the machine is too high.
Q: Does the HAAN® work on pet stains?
A: Yes, the HAAN® is able to spot clean fresh pet stains by loosening and lifting the
stain.
Q: How can I prolong the life of my HAAN®
?
A: To maintain the life of your unit, we recommend using the Fresh Rinse™ once a
month.
Q: Will the HAAN® Steam Cleaner clean grout?
A: Yes, but it needs a little help. If you glide your HAAN® over the problem areas and
then scrub with your Ultra-Microfiber Pad, it should effectively clean your grout. How-
ever, it will not remove discoloration as this has been absorbed into the grout.
