Special features of your BISSELL deep cleaner
Your BISSELL deep cleaner is a home cleaning
system that uses a combination of hand hot tap
water, BISSELL advanced cleaning formula, brush
agitation and suction to safely clean carpets.
DirtLifter™ PowerBrush
WARNING:
To reduce the riskoffire,use only
BISSELL advanced deep cleaning
formula for full size machines in your
deepcleaner.Use ofcleaning
The DirtLifter PowerBrush is designed to
enhance cleaning performance. The bristle
pattern safely lifts out the deep down dirt while
gently grooming carpet fibers. The floating
suspension self-adjusts to all carpet heights.
When the power is ON ( I ) and the machine is
in the upright position, your carpet is protected
because the brushes are lifted up off the carpet.

Special features of your BISSELL deep cleaner
Measuring cup
Your deep cleaner is equipped with a measuring
cup for adding the proper amount of formula
to the 2-in-1 water tank. For convenience the
measuring cup is built into the lid of the 2-in-1
water tank.
Measuring Cup
2-in-1 water tank
Carry Handle
Our 2-in-1 water tank system is designed with a
heavy duty bladder inside for clean water. As you
clean, the clean water in the bladder will empty
and mix with the cleaning formula. Dirty water
pulled out of your carpets will collect around the
outside of the bladder so that clean and dirty
water are always kept separate. This allows the
user to maximize tank space, yet only carry one
tank to and from the sink for emptying and filling.
ATTENTION:
Some Berber carpets have a
tendency to fuzz with wear.
Repeated strokes in the same
area with an ordinary vacuum or
deep cleaner may aggravate this
condition.
Operation
Before you clean
1. Plan activities to give your carpet time to dry.
2. Move furniture to another area if cleaning
an entire room (optional).
3. Vacuum area with a dry vacuum cleaner
before deep cleaning.
4. Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit path. It
is best to begin cleaning in the corner farthest
from your exit.
