Operations
Before You Clean
1. Plan activities to give your carpet time to dry.
2. Move furniture to another area if cleaning an
entire room (optional).
3. Remove loose dirt and impediments before
cleaning.
4. Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit path.
It is best to begin cleaning in the corner farthest
from your exit.
5. Pretreating (optional)
Pretreating is recommended to improve
cleaning effectiveness for heavily soiled carpet
in high-traffic areas such as entry ways
and hallways.
To pretreat:
a. Using the BISSELL® Stain Pretreat,
generously spray evenly over soiled
area. Do not overwet.
b. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.
c. Clean as normal using your BISSELL
carpet washer, following the instructions
below.
Fill the 2-in-1 Water Tank
1. Remove the tank from the base of the
machine by lifting the tank carry handle.
2. Carry like a bucket to the sink. Rotate the
handle forward to unlatch the lid. Remove lid,
turn over and locate built in measuring cup.
3. Fill with BISSELL formula to the indicated fill
line on the built-in measuring cup and pour into
mouth of the bladder.
4. Fill the bladder with warm (60°C/140°F MAX)
tap water. *Do not boil or microwave water as it
can destroy the bladder.
5. Replace the top of the tank by matching
the lid and tank edges. Handle must be in
the forward position in order to replace lid.
Rotate the handle to the carrying position
to latch the lid.
NOTE: Remember to secure the lid and test
to make sure it is secure before picking up
the tank.

firmly in place. Rotate tank handle back into
latched position.
