Thanks to its simplistic design, it is easy to manoeuver along every edge and corner, blitzing away bacteria, dirt and scum along the way, leaving you with beautifully clean oors.

Ensure the power cable is wrapped around the cable management hooks with the upper hook facing upwards so that it is securely holding the cable in place. Each mop pad can be used 70 to 80 times under normal circumstances. When the mop pad appears damaged or the cleaning effect is weakened, it is recommended to replace the it with a new mop pad.
