Charging The Battery
1.
2.
3.
The Battery Pack is not fully charged when packed in the carton. It should be charged at least 8 hours before using it for the first time. Thereafter, a 6-8 hour charge will renew the Battery Pack.
To charge the unit, remove the Battery Pack by gripping it firmly on both sides and lifting up and out. Place the
Battery Pack in the Charging Base aligning the metal contacts on the bottom. Plug the DC Adapter of the
Charging Base into a standard electrical outlet (120V-
60hz). The Indicator Light will glow red, showing the battery is charging.
When completely charged, the CatchAll provides over
15 minutes of full cleaning power. An additional Battery
Pack may be purchased to extend run time.
Tip:
Fully charge battery before using.

Open the Cloth Holder by pushing down on the outside tabs.

Cleaning Your Bare Floors

5.
If the Battery Pack is not already in your CatchAll, remove it from the Charging Base and press firmly into place aligning the metal contacts on the bottom.
Tip the Handle back into typical use position. Turn the cleaner on by pressing the On/Off Button on the top of the vacuum.
Clean large areas by pushing forward with the Rotating
Brush in front. This will allow the vacuum to get the dirt and debris while the cloth dusts your floor.
To clean in corners and low-clearance areas, turn the cleaner in the opposite direction to lead with the electrostatic cloth. Any loose dirt or debris can be pushed out and then vacuumed up.
Note: You may also use your CatchAll without the cloth for quick vacuuming pickups. Or you can use the cloth without the vacuum turned on to quickly dust your floors.
When you’re done, turn the cleaner off by pressing the
On/Off button again. The Battery Pack may be left in the cleaner or returned to the Charging Base for recharging.
WARNING:
Use only DRY electrostatic cloths with your BISSELL CatchAll. Use of wet or pre-moistened cloths may damage your cleaner and void the warranty.

Maintenance
The key to maximum performance is emptying the Dirt Cup frequently and cleaning the Filter. Emptying the Dirt Cup after each use, and cleaning the Filter periodically, will help your CatchAll operate at peak efficiency.
Emptying The Dirt Cup & Cleaning The Filter
Use only BISSELL Replacement Filters (203-2518) in your
BISSELL CatchAll.
1.
With the Rotating Brush facing away from you, push forward on the Dirt Cup Release. Then grasp the Dirt
Cup and pull toward you and out.
2.
Remove the Filter from the Dirt Cup and empty debris into a garbage container. Shake the Filter to remove any debris.
3.
Replace the Filter in the Dirt Cup and place the Dirt Cup back in position in the cleaner.
4.
Lock the Dirt Cup into place by pulling the Dirt Cup
Release toward the Dirt Cup.
5.
After heavy usage, you may clean the Filter by washing it gently by hand in warm water and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and make certain it is completely dry before replacing it. If Filter is torn, replace it with a new Filter.
WARNING:
Never operate the CatchAll without the filter in place.
Doing so may damage the motor and void the warranty.
Checking the Rotating Brush & Changing the Belt
Use BISSELL Replacement Belts (203-2519) in your
BISSELL CatchAll.

Rotating Brush. Replace the End Caps and push the
Rotating Brush into the slots on the sides as shown.
Make sure the Rotating Brush is pushed all the way down and turns freely.
