SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

This model is for household use only. Commercial use of this unit voids the manufacturer’s warranty.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug in the illustration. Make certain that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded wiring system. If it
should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path
of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical
shock. The cord for this appliance has
an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. It must only be
plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.

Tips

» Deep cleaning stairs and high-traffic areas on a regular basis helps prolong carpet life.
» Check upholstery stuffing before cleaning. Colored stuffing may bleed through the fabric when it becomes wet.
» Before turning off the machine, suction up clean water to thoroughly rinse out the interior of the flex hose. Then, lift the cleaning tool and point it upwards to drain any remaining water into the dirty water collection tank.

Cleaning fluid

Keep plenty of genuine BISSELL Cleaning Solution on hand so you can clean whenever it fits your schedule. Always use genuine BISSELL deep cleaning formulas. Non-BISSELL
cleaning solutions may harm the machine and will void the warranty.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock due to internal component damage, use
only BISSELL cleaning fluids intended for usewith the deep cleaner.

WARNING

Use only BISSELL portable machine formula (with boost if desired) in your cleaner. Use of cleaning formulas which contain lemon or pine oil may damage this appliance and
void the warranty. Chemical spot cleaners or solvent-based soil removers also should not be used. These products may react with the plastic materials used in your cleaner, causing cracking or pitting.

Assembly

Assembling your portable machine is a simple process.

1. Slide the flex hose clip into the opening on the front of the machine. You will hear a “snap”when it is locked into place.
2. Snap the hose grip bracket into the back of the machine on the clean tank side. Wrap the flex hose around the unit and snap hose grip into bracket.
   
3. Attach the cord wrap by snapping it into place on the collection tank side of the machine. Wrap the power cord around the cord wrap. Snap the second tool storage (select models)
   into the back of the machine between the cord wrap and hose grip bracket.

Operations

Pre-treating

Cleaning effectiveness will be enhanced if you pre-treat heavily stained or highly soiled areas. Here’s how to do it:

1. Hold the 3” Tough Stain Tool just above the carpet or upholstery to be cleaned. Press the trigger to mist solution over the soiled area. For Deep Stain & 3-N-1 Stair Tool, follow instructions on page 6 & 7
2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.

Cleaning with the Tough Stain Tool

1. Attach the 3” Tough Stain Tool to the handheld
   cleaning hose.
2. Plug in the unit and press the power button beneath the handle to turn it on.
3. Hold the tool 1 inch above soiled surface.
4. Press the spray trigger to mist solution over and onto the soiled area.
5. Release the spray trigger and gently scrub the stain.
6. To lift the stain away, apply downward pressure on the tool and slowly pull it toward you. Watch as powerful suction removes the dirt and cleaning solution. Continue until no more dirt can be removed.
7. As a final step, use “drying strokes” (by not pressing the spray trigger) to remove as much moisture as possible. Repeat this step as often as necessary.
   

IMPORTANT

Check the manufacturer’s tag before cleaning upholstery. “W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your SpotClean. If tag is coded with an “S” (with diagonal strikethrough), or says “Dry Clean Only,” do not proceed. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or
not coded, check with your furniture dealer.

NOTE: Oxy Boost formula will continue to clean oxidizable stains for 6-8 hours.

4. Release the spray trigger and gently scrub the stain.
5. To lift the stain away, apply downward pressure on the tool and slowly pull it toward you. Watch as powerful suction removes the dirt and cleaning solution. Continue until no more dirt can be removed.
6. As a final step, use “drying strokes” (by not pressing the spray trigger) to remove as much moisture as possible. Repeat this step as often as necessary.

NOTE: Oxy Boost formula will continue to clean oxidizable stains for 6-8 hours.

4. Store unit in protected, dry area, at room temperature (40° to 110°F).

Thermal protector

An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the suction motor will stop operating. If this happens, proceed as follows:

1. Turn the cleaner OFF (O) and unplug from electrical outlet.
2. Check the end of the hose and tool for blockages and remove if necessary.
3. Check the float stack for clogs. Refer to cleaning instructions above.
4. When the motor cools for approximately 30 minutes, the thermal protector automatically resets and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner may need servicing. Call BISSELL Consumer Care or visit the website.
