NOTICE: 

Dish soap, traditional dog or human shampoos and/or conditioners 

should not be used as they may be too thick and may damage the machine. Use 

only BISSELL No-Rinse Dog Shampoo in your Portable Dog Bath System. Use of 

shampoos or soaps which contain lemon or pine oil may damage this appliance 

and void the warranty.  These products may react with the plastic materials used 

in your cleaner, causing cracking or pitting. 

NOTE: 

The “factory setting” of the spray nozzle is optimized for use on most hair 

lengths/types with the exception of thick/heavy/dual and longer coated dogs.

TIP: 

Since every dog is unique, first start by adding a small amount of BISSELL 

No-Rinse Dog Shampoo to reservoir. Continue to add more shampoo as needed 

to effectively clean your dog.

Prime the tool by pointing the nozzle 

at the microfiber mat and pressing 

and holding the spray trigger for 15-20 

seconds to allow solution to dispense.
