perations
Cleaning hard floors continued
1. When the ready light illuminates, begin cleaning by slowly passing over surface while pressing the steam on demand trigger to emit steam as needed.
2. To sanitize an area of your floor, (attack invisible germs and bacteria) place the center of the Lift-Off Steam Mop over the spot for a minimum 15 seconds, but no longer than 20 seconds. For larger areas, overlap swivel head placement.
3. When the Lift-Off Steam Mop stops emitting steam, simply remove the water tank, refill, and continue cleaning.
NOTE: upon first use of this steam product or first use of a new filter, the pump may make a "knocking" sound while the filter fills with water. This sound is normal and may last up to one minute. Continue to depress the trigger until the knocking sound subsides and the unit emits steam.
Steam cleaning all living areas
Stubborn messes that resist traditional water and cleaning solutions can be removed with steam. Toothpaste or hair spray on the bathroom sink, soap scum on sliding shower walls—steam makes all these far easier to clean.
1. Fill the water tank with cool tap water or distilled/demineralized water and replace back on Detachable Steam Pod.
2. Remove Steam Pod by pressing the pod release button on the top of the carry handle and pulling the pod out and away from the lower base.
3. Remove cord from pod and connect the plug to an appropriate outlet.
4. Remove hose from pod by pressing the clip at the end of the hose where it connects to the detachable pod.
5. Connect desired tool to the end of the hose.
6. When blue ready light turns on, the steamer is ready to use.
7. To activate steam, press the pod release button on the top of the carry handle. To stop steaming, release the pod release button.

WARNING:
Never put descaling, aromatic
(not including the BISSELL Eucalyptus
Mint and water products), alcoholic or detergent product into the steam cleaner, as this may damage it or make it unsafe for use.
Tip:
During first use, it may take several seconds for the Lift-Off Steam Mop to begin steaming. The water needs to flow through the filter to the heater. This delay will only occur during initial use or when using a new filter.
M
aintenance and care
When you're done
1.
Unplug power cord from outlet.
2.
Carefully remove mop pad from swivel head, as mop pad and lower assembly will be hot.
3.
Any water remaining in the water tank should be emptied prior to machine storage.
4.
Mop pad can be machine washed in warm water. Use only liquid detergents.
Do not use bleach or fabric softeners; for best results, air dry.
5.
Wrap power cord around quick release cord wrap on side of
Detachable Steam Pod.
Replacing the water filter
If you fill your Lift-Off Steam Mop cleaner with normal tap water, it is essential to check the water purification system and replace it when it is no longer effective. Change the filter when the bright green grains turn blue. If the filter is not changed at the appropriate time, calcium deposits will accumulate on the heating element, causing damage or reduced performance.
Using distilled or demineralized water will maximize the performance of your filter.
To order a replacement water purification system, refer to the replacement parts section on page 10.
CAUTION:
Upright storage of the Lift-Off
Steam Mop with a wet mop pad may result in the formation of white marks on your floor. To remove the white marks, clean area with vinegar.
Tip:
Using distilled or demineralized water will maximize the performance of your filter.
Tip:
Be sure to use only a BISSELL water filter in your
Lift-Off Steam Mop.
