Operations

Special features

Your BISSELL PROheat 2X deep cleaner is a home cleaning system that uses the power of heat, brushes and cleaning formula to get the deep down dirt for a maximum clean. Not only does it come with several unique features, it has been designed with you, the customer, in mind.

Built-in-heater feature

BISSELL PROheat 2X models all feature a patented built-in heater which will heat the hot tap water you put in up to 25 degrees hotter to safely optimize cleaning effectiveness. The heater will never allow the temperature to exceed 190 degrees. The heater switch on the front of the machine controls the heater so you have the option to turn off the heat if you are cleaning delicate wool or oriental rugs.

2-in-1 water tank

Our 2-in-1 water tank full capacity system is designed with a heavy duty bladder inside for clean water. As you clean, the clean water in the bladder will empty and mix with the cleaning formula. Dirty water pulled out of your carpets will collect around the outside of the bladder so that clean and dirty water are always kept separate. This allows the user to only carry one tank to and from the sink for emptying and filling.

WARNING:

Do not plug in your cleaner until you have completely assembled it per the above instructions and are familiar with all instructions and operating procedures.

ReadyTools™ dial

This provides either floor cleaning or above floor cleaning with the turn of a knob. Choose "TOOLS" setting for stairs, upholstery and hard to reach areas and "FLOOR CLEANING" for carpets, area rugs and bare floors.

Before you clean

1. Move furniture to another area if clean-

ing an entire room (optional).

2. Pick up all loose dirt, debris, and pet hair

before deep cleaning. If you're cleaning just a small area of carpeting or less than a whole room, the ProHeat 2X Deep Cleaner may be used to vacuum the area before deep cleaning. If so, be sure to keep the red filter screen (in the 2-in-1 tank lid) cleaned of lint so that suction is maintained. When you're done, clear the red filter screen and then rinse both the dirty water and the clean solution tank (inside the flexible bladder) with warm water before starting the deep cleaning process.

3. Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit

path. It is best to begin cleaning in the corner farthest from your exit.

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. Please see Stain Removal instructions on page 14.
