This user’s guide has been designed to help

you get the maximum satisfaction from your

BISSELL deep cleaner. You’ll find assembly

and operating instructions, safety precautions,

as well as maintenance and troubleshooting

instructions. Please read this user’s guide

thoroughly before assembling your deep

cleaner.

Your deep cleaner comes in three easy to

assemble components:

• Handleassembly

• Upperbodyassembly

• Lowerbodyassembly

Three Phillips head screws are also included and

can be found taped to handle assembly.

The only tool you will need to assemble your

cleaner is a Phillips head screwdriver.

1. Slide upper body assembly onto lower body

and secure with two screws.

2. Slide handle assembly down into upper body

until it will go no further and secure with

screw.

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

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.

How to use this guide

Assembly

Special features of your BISSELL deep cleaner

WARNING:

Do not plug in your cleaner

until you have completely

assembled it per the

following instructions

and are familiar with all

instructions and operating

procedures.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, use only

BISSELL advanced deep cleaning

formula for full size machines in your

deep cleaner. Use of cleaning

formulas that contain lemon or

pine oil may damage this appliance

and void the warranty. Chemical

spot cleaners or solvent-based soil

removers should not be used. These

products may react with the plastic

materials used in your deep cleaner

causing cracking or pitting.

Handle

Tip: Deep cleaning carpeting

regularly can reduce dust and allergens

in your home.

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.

2-in-1 water tank

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.

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.

Fill the 2-in-1 water tank

1. With your foot, press the handle release

lever on the back of the machine and lay

handle down to access the tank.

2. Remove the tank from the base of the machine

by lifting the tank carry handle.

Let the BISSELL advanced deep cleaning

formula and DirtLifter PowerBrush do the

work for you. Caution: Do not over wet.

4. Release the spray trigger and make one

slow forward and backward pass over the

same area to remove any residual dirty

water and aid in drying.

5. Repeat cleaning passes until solution being

pulled up appears clean. Continue passes

without pressing the spray trigger until you

can’t see any more water being suctioned up.

7.

Tip: Thorough vacuuming

before deep cleaning will prevent

early clogging of the lint trap.

and electric shock due to

internal component

damage, use only BISSELL

cleaning fluids intended for

use with the deep cleaner.

solutions may harm the
