Your BISSELL PowerSteamer is a home cleaningsystem that uses a combination of hot tap water,
BISSELL advanced cleaning formula and suctionto safely clean carpets and upholstery.
DirtLifter PowerBrush
The DirtLifter PowerBrush is designed toenhance cleaning performance. The bristlepattern safely lifts out the deep down dirt whilegently grooming carpet fibers. The floatingsuspension self-adjusts to all carpet heights.When the power is ON ( I ) and the machine is
in the upright position, your carpet is protectedbecause the brushes are lifted up off the carpet.
SmartMix
The SmartMix feature automatically mixes hottap water with the BISSELL advanced cleaningformula. Simply choose one of the 3 settings(high traffic, normal, or water only) and thePowerSteamer will adjust the right amount ofcleaning solution to mix with the water to fityour cleaning need.
Having a separate solution tank from thewater tank allows no waste of formula.Because the water and solution are storedseparately, they are not mixed until you areready to clean. When your cleaning job isfinished, the formula can be stored ready touse in your machine for the next time!
2-in-1 water tank
Our 2-in-1 water tank system is designed with aheavy duty bladder inside for clean water. As youclean, the clean water in the bladder will emptyand mix with the cleaning formula. Dirty waterpulled out of your carpets will collect around theoutside of the bladder so that clean and dirtywater are always kept separate. This allows theuser to maximize tank space, yet only carry onetank to and from the sink for emptying and filling.

Cleaning fluid section
Keep plenty of genuine BISSELL Fiber CleansingFormula on hand so you can clean and protectwhenever it fits your schedule. Always usegenuine BISSELL deep cleaning formulas.
Stain removal
Do not delay! Attending to an accident soon afterit occurs ensures the chances for full removal.Leaving it for an extended period of time maycause it to set and become permanent.
1. Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or papertowels. White materials are recommended because
certain dyes may bleed and make the stain worse.
2. Gently scrape up any semi-solids with a spoon orspatula. 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 aninconspicuous 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 yourmachine over a hidden area. If no fuzzing occurs,
continue cleaning in soiled area.6. Using the BISSELL Tough Stain PreCleaner, sprayevenly 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 orpretreat setting on the ready tools dial.
Cleaning Fluid SectionWARNING:To reduce the risk of fireand electric shock due tointernal component damage,use only BISSELL cleaningfluids intended for use withthe deep cleaner. Non-BISSELL cleaning solutionsmay harm the machine andvoid the warranty.
