IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following:

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY:

Do not leave vacuum cleaner when it is plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Do not use for any purpose other than described in this user guide.
Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, have it repaired at an authorized service center.
Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
Turn OFF all controls before plugging or unplugging vacuum cleaner.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible materials (lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene, etc.) or use in areas where they may be present.
Do not use vacuum cleaner in an enclosed space filled with vapors given off by oil-based paint, paint thinner, some moth-proofing substances, flammable dust, or other explosive or toxic vapors.
Do not use to pick up toxic material (chlorine bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.).
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
Do not use without filters in place.
Do not pick up hard or sharp objects such as glass, nails, screws, coins, etc.
Use only on dry, indoor surfaces.
Keep appliance on a level surface.
Do not carry the vacuum cleaner while it is running.
Unplug before connecting or disconnecting the Pet TurboBrush® Tool.
Before using your vacuum, make sure the dirt tank is in locked position and that all filters, both pre- and post-filters, are in place. DO NOT operate your vacuum without these filters.
Plastic film can be dangerous. To avoid danger of suffocation, keep away from children.
Do not plug in your vacuum UNTIL you are familiar with all instructions and operating procedures.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, turn power switch OFF and disconnect polarized plug from electrical outlet BEFORE performing maintenance or troubleshooting checks.

Using the Vacuum

For additional support videos and information, visit support.BISSELL.com

Press the red power button with your foot to turn the vacuum ON and OFF
Press the recline pedal and pull handle back towards you
Turn dial on foot to desired height setting. If dial is difficult to turn, tilt the vacuum back slightly to take the weight off the foot while turning.
Tip: For best performance, adjust to the lowest practical setting. If your vacuum is difficult to push, adjust to the next higher setting.

Note: Rotating floor brush continues to rotate while tools are in use. Never place fingers under the vacuum when it is running. Never place powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Certain carpets and low humidity conditions may generate small static discharges. Static discharges are entirely harmless and are not associated in any way with the main power supply.

Above Floor Cleaning
Clean hard-to-reach spaces with the Quick Release Extension Wand.

Push the release button to remove extension wand and attach desired tool.
Attach desired tool. Note: For optimal performance, attach the Pet TurboBrush® Tool directly to the hose instead of the wand.
Twist the hose counter-clockwise to remove from the handle, if desired. To do so, twist circular hose cuff counter-clockwise and remove from the handle.

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts while the vacuum is turned ON, always move the vacuum via the rolling wheels by using the upper handle at the back of the vacuum.
