Using BISSELL Stain Pretreat,

following instructions in section C-2.

UPRIGHT CLEANING MODE

C-2 Filling formula & water tank

1. 

Remove tank from base of machine by  

lifting up tank carry handle. 

NOTE: This tank was designed with a flat 

bottom so it can be easily filled.

2. 

Unscrew black cap and remove bottle insert.  

3. 

Fill tank with hand hot (60°C/140°F MAX) 

tap water to water fill line. Add 60 mL of 

BISSELL 2X formula to tank. 

Do not boil or 

microwave water as it can destroy the tank.

black cap. Replace tank on machine. 

C-3 Carpet cleaning

1. 

Plug into a proper outlet and press power 

button. 

2. 

With foot, press gray recline pedal, 

located on back of machine in between 

wheels. 

3. 

While pressing spray trigger, make one 

slow forward wet pass and another one back. 

Caution: Do not overwet.

 

4. 

Release spray trigger and make one slow 

forward and backward pass over same area. 

5. 

Repeat cleaning passes until solution 

being suctioned up appears clean. Continue 

passes without pressing spray trigger until 

water is no longer being suctioned up. 

Repeated passes will help aid in dry time. 

NOTE: Machine may be equipped with a  

circuit breaker that will automatically shut 

off the brush if a large or loose object is 

caught in the brush roll. If that happens, 

be sure to unplug machine, remove foreign 

object, and then plug machine back in to 

reset circuit breaker.

Take care not to run over loose objects or edges 

of area rugs. Stalling the brush may result in 

premature belt failure. 

Brush may unexpectedly restart. To reduce the 

risk of injury from moving parts, unplug before 

cleaning or servicing.

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. 

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 guarantee. 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.
