GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded wiring system. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Grounded
Outlets
Grounding Pin
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT MODIFY
THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug in the drawing above. Make certain that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

Tip:
Deep cleaning carpeting regularly can reduce dust and allergens in your home.
A
ssembly

pecial features of your BISSELL deep cleaner
Your BISSELL deep cleaner is a home cleaning system that uses a combination of 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.
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. w w w . b i s s e l l . c o m 8 0 0 . 2 3 7 . 7 6 9 1

Measuring cup
Your deep cleaner is equipped with a measuring cup for adding the proper amount of formula to the 2-in-1 tank. For convenience the measuring cup is built into the lid of the 2-in-1 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.
5. Pretreating (optional)
Pretreating is recommended to improve cleaning effectiveness for heavily soiled carpet in high traffic areas such as entry ways and hallways.
To pretreat:
A. Using the BISSELL Tough Stain
Pre-cleaner, generously spray evenly over soiled area, do not over wet.
B. Wait 3-5 minutes before deep cleaning.
C. Clean as normal using your BISSELL deep cleaner, following the instructions below.
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.

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 trigger until you can’t see any more water being suctioned up.

Tip:
Thorough vacuuming before deep cleaning will prevent early clogging of the lint trap.

Non-BISSELL cleaning solutions may harm the machine and void the warranty.
