Maintenance & Care
Stain removal
Do Not Delay!
Attending to an accident soon
after it occurs increases the chances for full
removal. Leaving it for an extended period of
time may cause it to set and become permanent.
1.
Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or
paper towels. White materials are recommended
because certain dyes may bleed and make the
stain worse.
2.
Gently scrape up any semi-solids with a spoon
or spatula. Do not use a knife or other utensil
with sharp edges because it could damage the
carpet or upholstery.
3.
If the area has dried, remove the remaining
semi-solids and residue with a sweeper
or vacuum.
4.
Be sure to test any spot removal formulas in
an inconspicuous area first. This is important as
some dyes and materials could be damaged or
discolored by cleaning solvents. If such a change
should occur, try a different solution or call a
professional.
5.
If cleaning on Berber carpeting, gently run
your machine over a hidden area. If no fuzzing
occurs, continue cleaning in soiled area.
6.
Use the BISSELL Stain PreTreat, spray
evenly over soiled area. Do not overwet. Wait
3-5 minutes. Gently work the solution by blotting
area with a clean, damp, color safe cloth.
7.
Clean using either the floor cleaning or tools
setting on the ReadyTools dial.
