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 drawing above.

Special features of your BISSELL PROdry carpet cleaner

Your BISSELL PROdry carpet cleaner is a home cleaning system that uses a combination of hot tap water, BISSELL advanced cleaning formula, the innovative TLR PowerRoller and suction to safely clean carpet and area rugs.TLR PowerRoller™The TLR PowerRoller is designed for great cleaning performance with fast drying results. It Traps, Lifts and Removes dirt and debris. Unlike traditional carpet cleaners, where cleaning solution is sprayed directly into the carpet, the TLR PowerRoller absorbs the majority of the spray from the machine, meaning your carpet and area rugs get cleaned and revitalized, while still allowing you to get back on them in less than 30 minutes. When in the upright position, for storage or tool use, the TLR PowerRoller is lifted off the floor surface and held in space. This will also help the TLR PowerRoller dry between uses. The TLR PowerRoller can be washed or replaced as needed.Ready Tools™ DialThe Ready Tools feature allows you to choose between FLOOR CLEANING or cleaning with TOOLS simply by turning the dial. The TOOLS setting allows for above floor cleaning of upholstery, stairs, creases along baseboards and other hard to reach areas. Simply choose the tool that is appropriate for the job, attach it to the flexible hose and you are ready to go.Oxy Gen2 PowerToolThe Oxy Gen2 PowerTool is an advanced stain fighting tool. By adding Oxy Gen2 multi-purpose formula to the tool, tough stains such as coffee, juice, cola and red wine are easier to clean up. The tool can store ready to use with the Oxy Gen2 formula in it.Easy carry handleLocated in the back of the machine, the easy carry handle makes it easy to carry the machine. Refer to product view for location.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only BISSELL advanced deep cleaning formula for full size machines in your carpet cleaner. Use of cleaning formulas that contain lemon or pine oil may damage this appliance and void the warranty. Chemical spot cleaners or solvent-based soil removers should not be used. These products may react with the plastic materials used in your deep cleaner causing cracking or pitting.

Operation

Before you clean

  1. If desired, move furniture to another area if cleaning an entire room.

Ready Tools™ (cleaning with attachments)

Your PROdry carpet cleaner comes equipped with a hose and at least two attachments for cleaning stairs, upholstery, stains and more.Important! If using the machine to clean upholstery, check upholstery tags.

  1. Check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning. “W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your PROdry.

If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded, check with your furniture dealer.

  3. If possible, check upholstery stuffing. Coloured stuffing may bleed through fabric when wet.
