Frequently Asked Questions
Q.  My  Sonic Duo™ leaves a foam on hard floors.
 
A.  The Sonic Duo
 Hard Floor Cleaning Pad is 
likely too saturated. Replace it with a clean, 
dry pad.
Q.  My floors appear cloudy after cleaning.
 
A.  The Sonic Duo
 Hard Floor Cleaning Pad 
may be dirty. Change the pad.
OR
 
A.  The Sonic Duo
 Hard Floor Cleaning Pad 
was washed with a powder detergent and 
may be damaged and require replacement. 
Never use powder detergents. Only use liquid 
detergent to launder the cleaning pads.
OR
 
A.  The Sonic Duo
 may have been left in the 
same spot for too long with a wet cleaning 
pad. Never leave the unit with a wet pad in 
one spot for too long.
OR
 
A.  This may be leftover from past cleaners 
that were used on the floor surface. Use the 
Sonic Duo
 a few more times and see if the 
leftover cloudiness is removed. If this does not 
work, we suggest rinsing the floor with water 
and letting it dry. One or more rinses generally 
removes the residue. A more stubborn case 
may require you to rinse the floor with a mix 
of one part vinegar to 2 parts water. Then use 
the Sonic Duo
 again with a clean pad.

NOTE: The first time that you use the Sonic Duo
 
there may be air in the system causing a delay 
for the solution to come out of the spray nozzle. 
Hold the spray button down for 5 to 10 seconds 
until you see the solution come out.

  Lightly step on the back of the scrubbing head 
to release the handle and move the agitating 
Sonic Duo
 back and forth over the area to

Repeat until the entire floor surface has been 
cleaned. No rinsing is required. 
WARNING: Never stand on the Sonic Duo
.

  If the Reusable Bottle is empty, you can refill 
it at any time as long as the Sonic Duo

unplugged from the outlet. 
  IMPORTANT: Never leave the Sonic Duo
 
with a damp/wet cleaning pad on any floor 
surface for any amount of time as this may 
damage the floor.
Once finished, step on the tag of the Hard Floor 
Cleaning Pad and lift the unit to remove the pad 
from the Sonic Duo
