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
thoroughly 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.
5. Pretreating (optional)
Pretreating is recommended to improve cleaning
effectiveness for heavily soiled carpet in high
traffic areas such as entryways and hallways.
A. Spray the BISSELL Tough Stain Pre-treat
formula onto heavy traffic areas, soiled
areas, or stains.
B. Allow to penetrate for at least 3 minutes.
C. Clean as normal, using the BISSELL
ProHeat 2X machine on the high traffic
setting, following the instructions below.
Carpet cleaning
1. Fill the 2-in-1 Water Tank. Remove the
tank from the base of the machine by lifting
up the tank carry handle. Carry like a bucket
to the sink.
1a. Unlatch the top of the tank from the bottom
by lifting up on the tank latch which is located
on the back of the tank.
1b.
Remove the top of the tank by lifting up on
the handle.
Note how the lip on the top tank separates
from the groove in the bottom tank. This
placement is important when putting the
tank back together.
1c. Fill the heavy duty bladder with clean hot
tap water.
*Do not boil or microwave water as it can
destroy the bladder.
1d. Leaving the filled bottom of the tank on a
flat surface, only maneuver the top of the
tank. To attach the top part of the tank to the
bottom, carefully hook the lip on the top tank
into the groove on the bottom tank.
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. Please see Stain
Removal instructions on page 14.
