How to Use a Bissel Steam Cleaner
- Lift the carrying handle on the cleaner and remove the water tank from the base.
- Carry the tank over to the sink and remove the lid.
- Pour some Bissel cleaning formula into the tank. There is a built-in measuring cup on the tank. Stop pouring in the cleaner when it reaches the "fill" line, and then pour it into the opening of the bladder. Refer to the owner's manual if you cannot locate the bladder.
- Fill the remainder of the bladder with hot water.
- Move the handle to the forward position to secure the lid on the tank and place it back into the base of the cleaner.
- Plug in the steam cleaner and place the "ready tools" knob in the "floor cleaning" position.
- Turn the power on to the machine with your foot by pushing the red switch located at the bottom of the cleaner.
- Turn "on" the heater switch, which is located on the side of the machine.
- Use your foot to press the gray handle release level on the back of the cleaner.
- Hold down the spray trigger and begin cleaning.
- Slowly move the cleaner back and forth across the carpet while holding down the spray trigger.
- Release the trigger and go over the carpet again. This will remove the dirty water from the carpet.
- Keep repeating steps 12 and 13 until all the carpeting has been cleaned.
