Ultra-microfiber pads  
What is an ultra-microfiber?  
An ultra-microfiber is a textile fiber that is thinner  
than a microfiber. The Ultra-Microfibers by HAAN®  
Corporation are 5-10 times thinner than common  
microfiber, providing for a significantly higher thread  
count in the same surface area. The thinner and  
higher the thread count, the greater the absorption.  
The HAAN® Ultra-Microfibers are so thin that more  
dirt and dust gets trapped between the fibers, making  
your cleaning simpler and less time-consuming.

You can also drop the pads in a washing machine  
(Fig 23), and clean them using the gentle/delicate  
cycle. NEVER use bleach or fabric softener as  
this will compromise the absorbency of the microfiber.

mineral Deposits:  
CaUtION  
one problem with a steamer appliance is the mineral  
deposits caused by the high mineral content in many  
municipal water supplies. Mineral residue inside of  
the unit’s internal pipes and heater can cause intermittent  
steaming or, in some cases, no steam at all.  
DO NOT overfill the water  
tank. Add only 1 cupful of the  
included Fill Cup to add water  
to the tank. There is a fill line  
indicating the correct level  
just inside the opening to  
the Water Tank.  
To reduce or eliminate the occurrence of mineral  
deposits, we recommend the use of de-mineralized  
or distilled water in the unit. However, regular tap  
water may be used.  
If regular tap water is used, we recommend the use  
of the HAAN® Fresh Rinse Lime & Scale Remover’  
every 2 or 3 months to ensure optimum functionality  
from your HAAN® Duo™ Steam Sweeper and Floor  
Sanitizer. You can purchase this directly from the  
HAAN® web site (see listing below).

Helpful HaaN® Hints  
Be sure to always pick up or sweep up large debris like  
crayons, marbles, dog biscuits and any other large, hard  
objects before using the Duo™. It does not have suction  
power. Large objects may clog the Power-Lift Brush and  
interfere with the sweeping function.  
The easiest way to use the HAAN® Duo™ is to tilt the  
handle to a 45° angle, and push and pull the unit slowly  
across each section of your floor – approximately 2 to 3  
yards at a time.  
To release the handle/pole in preparation for using the  
Duo™, simply place your foot gently on top of the main  
unit and pull back. Be sure not to confuse the Steam or  
Sweeper function buttons as a release for the handle.  
A good amount of steam passes through the Ultra-Microfiber  
Pad. We recommend that the Ultra-Microfiber Pad be  
changed when it gets too wet; they need to be replaced  
as necessary. Your Duo™ purchase includes two Ultra-  
Microfiber Pads.  
While the Duo™ effectively cleans dirt and grime from  
hard-surface floors, particularly stubborn stains on vinyl  
or linoleum floors may be pre-treated with a mild detergent  
and a little water before using the Steam Cleaning Steam  
Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer, if you so choose.  
Always let the Steam Sweeper & Floor Sanitizer cool for at  
least 5 minutes before removing the Ultra-Microfiber Pad  
and emptying the Water Tank.  
Never leave the Duo™ in one spot on any surface for any  
period of time. Always place your unit on the black Floor  
Protector Resting Mat (with the ‘bumpy’ side facing up)  
when stationary, and make sure the Steam Sweeper &  
Floor Sanitizer is turned off when not in use.  
Do NoT attempt to use the Duo™ in a vertical position  
(ie: to clean a tile wall), as this may cause leakage  
or malfunction of the product.  
When using your Duoto clean up wet messes, be sure to  
wipe the brush bristles with a clean damp rag and allow to  
dry before using the Duoon carpets or rugs.

Questions & Answers  
QUESTION: Is the HAAN® Duosafe for use on all hard  
surfaces?  
?
The HAAN® Duo™ emits a high velocity, dry vapor of steam  
at a consistent 212°F to ensure it is safe to use on any sealed  
hard surface. And the patented, super-absorbent, multilayer  
Ultra-Microfiber cleaning pads are designed to reduce friction  
and dry floors almost instantly, making the Duo™ safe on even  
the most delicate flooring, such as hardwood or laminate.  
QUESTION: Can the Duobe used on laminate and hard-  
wood flooring?  
?
The HAAN® Duo™ was designed for use on sensitive flooring  
like laminates and hardwood. We’ve spent years optimizing the  
steam emission so that, at nearly half the wattage of competitive  
products (ours is only 860w combined), we still emit steam  
at 21F. This means our finer, vapor-like steam is gentler  
than those that simply blast 1500w of water and steam onto  
your floor. Yet, the Duo™ is more effective than competitors  
at penetrating stains and killing harmful germs and bacteria.  
Steam is all we do, and we’ve spent years perfecting it. We  
recommend that you test a small, inconspicuous area of the  
floor to be sure that it can handle the heat and steam  
action and refer to your floor manufacturer’s care  
recommendations.  
QUESTION: How do I use the black rubber pad included  
?
with my HaaN® Duo?  
The black Floor Protector/Resting Mat is to be used whenever  
your HAAN® Duo™ is not being actively used. Place your  
Steam Cleaning Steam Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer on the  
Floor Protector Resting Mat (with the ‘bumpy’ side facing  
up) as soon as you assemble your unit and before you fill  
the Water Tank. The unit should remain on the mat while it  
heats up, AND you should always set your Duo™ on the mat  
if you need to take a quick break from steaming. Never leave  
your Duo™ sit in any one spot on the floor for any length  
of time or it may damage the floor surface. The black Floor  
Protector Resting Mat should also be used when the unit is  
cooling down. If you store your unit standing up (as opposed  
to hanging on a hook), we recommend you keep it on the mat  
for storage as well.

Questions & Answers (cont)  
QUESTION: Is the HaaN® Duosafe to use on area rugs  
and carpets?  
?
Because of the specially-designed Power-LiftBrush with  
gentle Ultra-Gripbristles, the HAAN® Duois the ideal way  
to care for and groom area rugs and carpets. Rotating at an  
optimal speed, the specially-designed brush is powerful  
enough to sweep up nearly any mess, from debris like pet  
food and cereal, to finer matter like crumbs and dirt. Yet  
the Power-LiftBrush is still gentle on carpet and area rugs,  
grooming fibers as you sweep. The specially-designed  
Ultra-Gropbristles are softer and thinner with a ‘fan-like’  
construction that causes them to act as tiny brooms, grabbiing  
more dirt while being gentle on hard floors and carpets.  
QUESTION: How does the Duoclean my carpet and rugs?  
?
The Duocleans carpets and rugs by sanitizing with steam  
at 21F, killing up to 99.9% of germs, bacteria, dust mites  
and allergens. Plus, it eliminates odors, freshening carpets  
and rugs — all with simple tap water — no detergents or  
chemicals.  
QUESTION: Can the Duosteam and sweep at the same time?  
?
?
Yes, separate SWEEP and STEAM function buttons allow  
the HAAN® Duoto sweep and steam independently or  
simultaneously.  
QUESTION: Will the HAAN® Duoreplace my vacuum?  
While the HAAN® Duomay not completely replace the need  
for a full-section vacuum cleaner, using the Duocan reduce  
the frequency of vacuuming by up to 25%! And the sleek  
design, weighing under 8 lbs with an extra long, 25-foot  
power cord, make the Duoideal for quick cleaning of small  
messes, area rugs, or hard-to-reach areas such as carpeted  
staircases.  
QUESTION: Does the Duouse disposable bags or  
cleaning pads?  
?
The Duouses a special, large-capacity Sweeper Collection  
Bin that holds up to 100% more dry mess debris than other  
sweepers, eliminating the need for disposable waste bags.  
And the Duocomes with two machine washable, reusable  
Ultra-Microfiber Pads specially designed to mop up wet  
messes. They can be used time and time again before needing  
to be replaced.

Questions & Answers (cont)  
QUESTION: How long does a full tank of water last?  
?
?
The HAAN® Duo™ uses one fill cup (fill cup included wih  
purchase) of simple tap water, providing 20 minutes of  
germ-killing steam.  
QUESTION: Does the Duorequire any cleaning agents?  
The Duo™ operates with just simple tap water, heating it  
to 212°F to kill up to 99.9% of E.coli, Salmonella and other  
common hpusehold germs including dust mites and allergens –  
naturally, without the need for cleaning agents or chemicals.  
QUESTION: Why does the unit stop steaming when the  
RED refill light comes on?  
?
?
When the red refill light comes on, this indicates the unit is  
out of water. The HAAN® Duo™ automatically shuts off as a  
safety feature.  
QUESTION: When I first used my HAAN® Duo, the pads  
left water streaks on my floor – why?  
It is likely you attached your Ultra-Microfiber Pad to the  
bottom of the Duo™ before the unit was fully heated, causing  
the pad to become wet. It is best to heat the unit on the  
black Floor Protector Resting Mat (‘bumpy’ side facing up)  
before placing the Ultra-Microfiber Pad on the steam head.  
Attach the Ultra-Microfiber Pad only after the Thermal  
Indicator turns oRANGE. Simply toss the Ultra-Microfiber  
Pad on the floor (with the white hook & loop side facing up)  
and set the base of the unit on top of it. The hook & loop system  
will cause the Ultra-Microfiber Pad to attach itself easily.  
QUESTION: How often do I have to buy new Ultra-  
Microfiber Pads?  
?
The two patented Ultra-Microfiber Pads included with your  
HAAN® Duo™ are reusable. You simply toss them in the  
washing machine – but please DON’T use fabric softener.  
We recommend air drying the pads, but you may also dry  
them on a low heat setting in your dryer. Each pad will last  
through many washes.

Questions & Answers (cont)  
QUESTION: What is the big difference between the  
?
?
?
HAAN® Duoand other floor cleaners?  
The HAAN® Duo™ uses only water to clean and sanitize hori-  
zontal surfaces. No harsh detergents or chemicals are need-  
ed. By emitting steam at 21F, the Duo™ kills up to 99.9%  
E.coli, Salmonella and other common household germs and  
allergens, including dust mites, – all in one second!  
QUESTION: I don’t see much steam coming out of the  
HAAN® Duo– why not?  
Actually, you shouldn’t be able to see that much steam coming  
out of the Duo™. The truth is that the more steam you see  
when in use, the less effective a steam sanitizer is, because  
the steam should be physically directed to cleaning your  
floors and not escaping through other parts of the steamer.  
QUESTION: The Duois leaving my floor wet. Why, and  
what can I do about it?  
The pad should not be placed on the Pad Tray while heating  
up on the Floor Protector Resting Mat. This will cause it  
to become saturated prematurely. Heat the unit on the mat  
without the pad. once the Thermal Indicator has changed to  
oRANGE, indicating it is ready to use — place a dry Ultra-  
Microfiber Pad on the floor, hook & loop side up, and press  
the unit onto the pad.  
Another reason could be that the Ultra-Microfiber Pad may  
needs to be changed. For optimal performance, the pad  
should be changed after approximtely ten (10) minutes of use.  
QUESTION: How long can I use an Ultra-Microfiber Pad  
before it needs to be changed?  
?
?
The pad should be changed approximately every ten (10)  
minutes or when it becomes saturated with water. The  
machine will become harder to push smoothly across the  
floor when the pad is saturated.  
QUESTION: Sometimes my Duobecomes hard to  
push – why?  
If the unit is hard to push, it is likely because the Ultra-  
Microfiber Pad is too wet or the angle at which you are  
holding the machine is too high. The lower the handle, the  
easier the Duois to push across the floor, and if doing this  
does not help, try replacing the pad with a dry one.

Questions & Answers (cont)  
QUESTION: Do all the germs and bacteria get trapped in  
the Water Tank?  
?
No. The water in the tank is heated in excess of 212°F, killing  
any bacteria or germs in the water as it transforms into  
steam during use.  
QUESTION: Does the Duowork on pet stains?  
Yes, the Duois able to spot clean fresh stains by loosening  
and lifting the stain. (See details for this on pgs 13-14.)  
?
?
QUESTION: How do I use the Pad Tray?  
The Pad Tray is to be used with the Ultra-Microfiber Pad for  
sanitizing hard floor surfaces and can be attached directly to  
the bottom of the unit. (See directions for attaching it and  
using it on pgs 8-9.)  
QUESTION: Do I have to use distilled water in my Duo™  
Steam Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer?  
?
?
?
We recommend distilled water but you may use tap water,  
unless you have hard water in your area. Using hard water  
will shorten the life of your appliance. (See pg 17 for more  
details.)  
QUESTION: How can I prolong the life of my HAAN® Duo?  
To optimize and extend the life of your Steam Sweeper and  
Floor Sanitizer, especially if your area has hard water, we  
recommend using the HAAN® Fresh Rinse™ Lime and Scale  
Remover (available on our Website) every 2-3 months. See  
pg 17 for more details.  
QUESTION: Where does the dirt go?  
The HAAN® Duo™ is NOT a vacuum, so it does not have  
any suction power to pick up dirt. The Power-LiftBrush  
rotates at an optimal speed for easy pick-up of dirt and small  
particles. The specially-designed brush is powerful enough  
to sweep up nearly any mess from debris like pet food and  
cereal, to finer matter like crumbs and dirt. (Be sure to pick  
up any large pieces like marbles, dog biscuits, crayons, etc  
before using your Duo.) What is picked up is swept up  
into the Sweeper Collection Bin, which can then be emptied  
in to a waste container.

encounter with your Steam Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer. Please read  
the different sections for more details.  
Before calling our Customer Care line, please check these first:  
• Is the Sweeper Collection Bin full?  
• Is there anything clogging the revolving brush opening?  
• Is the brush turning freely or are there hair, string or rug fibers  
twisted around the brush?  
If you are unable to solve the problem, please contact our Customer  
Care Representatives at the number shown at the bottom of the page.  
PROBLEM: Duodoes not operate.  
Possible Cause:  
1) Power cord not firmly plugged into outlet.  
2) No power in wall outlet.  
Possible Solution:  
1) Check plug in outlet and set plug firmly.  
2) Check fuse or breaker. Replace fuse, and/or  
reset breaker.  
PROBLEM: Duodoes not emit steam.  
Possible Cause:  
1) No water in Water Tank.  
Possible Solution:  
1) Add water to the water tank by following the  
instructions on pg 9.  
PROBLEM: RED light comes on and/or unit shuts off shortly after  
the water in the tank is heated.  
Possible Cause:  
1) Your thermostat may not have been pre-boiled to  
trigger proper thermostat levels.  
Possible Solution:  
1) Shut the unit off, remove the plug from the  
electrical outlet, and empty the tank completely.  
After the unit has cooled down, refill the tank with  
cold water, using a little less than indicated by the  
line on the fill cup. Be careful not to overfill the  
tank. Plug the unit back into the wall receptacle,  
and press the grey ‘STEAM’ button to start sanitizing.
