Special features

Your BISSELL CleanView

®

Reach is a home cleaning system that uses a combination of hand hot tap water,

BISSELL 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 and the machine is in the upright position, your carpet is protected because the brush is lifted up off the carpet.

ReadyTools ™ Dial

The Ready Tools feature allows you to choose between FLOOR CLEANING or cleaning with

TOOLS simply by turning the dial. The TOOLS setting allows for above floor cleaning of upholstery, stairs, creases along baseboards, and other hard to reach areas. Simply choose the tool that is appropriate for the job, attach to flex hose and you are ready to go.

Microban

®

antibacterial protection

Microban antibacterial protection helps prevent the growth of harmful common household bacteria including E. coli, Salmonella and Staph. a. It helps to keep the unit fresher and cleaner between uses.

Scotchgard ™ Protector

Carpet protection applied at the mill typically wears down over time from heavy foot traffic and everyday cleaning, including deep cleaning. To help restore this important protection, only BISSELL offers cleaning formulas with

Scotchgard protector. This offers extra protection against dirt and tough stains to keep your carpets looking good longer.

Before you clean

1.

Move furniture to another area if cleaning an entire room. (Optional)

6

2.

Vacuum carpet thoroughly.

3.

Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit path. It is best to begin cleaning in the corner farthest from your exit.

w w w . b i s s e l l . c o m

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, use only BISSELL 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 remov ers should not be used. These products may react with the plastic materials used in your deep cleaner causing cracking or pitting.
