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.

Make certain that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Product View

cleaning fluid
Keep plenty of genuine bissell 2X Cleaning Formula on hand so you can clean whenever it fits your schedule. Always use genuine Bissell deep cleaning formulas. Non-Bissell cleaning solutions may harm the machine and will void the warranty.

WARNING
Use only BISSELL 2X compact formulas in your 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 also should not be used. These products may react with the plastic materials used in your cleaner, causing cracking or pitting.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock due to internal component damage, use only BISSELL cleaning fluids intended for use with the deep cleaner.

Operations

Getting ready

1. To fill the clean water/solution tank.
   a. Remove the tank by lifting it straight up and then away from the unit.
   b . Unscrew the black cap at the bottom of the clean/solution tank.
   c. Using a standard liquid measuring cup (or cap on Bissell 2X Portable cleaning formula), measure 4oz. of formula (2 caps full) and pour into tank. Then fill with hot tap water to the WATeR fill line. Replace and tighten the black cap. DO NOT BOIL OR MICROWAVE WATER.
   d. Replace the clean/solution tank by lining up the vertical guides on the left side of the unit with the indentations on the clean/solution tank and gently sliding it down into position.

2. Unwrap vacuum flex hose completely from onboard hose storage.

3. Attach your selected cleaning tool to the spray trigger unit by pressing tool onto the spray trigger firmly until the button lock snaps into hole. Make certain the tool is securely attached.

4. Twist the quick release cord wrap clockwise to unwrap the power cord.

5. Plug into proper outet.

Pre-treating

Cleaning effectiveness will be enhanced if you pre-treat heavily stained or highly-soiled areas.
Here’s how to do it:

1. Hold the cleaning tool just above the surface of the carpet or upholstery to be cleaned. Press the trigger to release a spray of cleaning solution directly onto the soiled area.
2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.

Cleaning with your little Green PROHEAT

1. Turn the power/heater to the ON position. Wait 30 seconds before use to allow the heater to reach the proper temperature.
2. Hold the tool approximately 1” above the soiled surface. Press the spray trigger to apply the cleaning solution to the soiled area. Raise the tool slighty to check for spray. When using the Deep Reach Tool (select models), keep the tool in contact with the carpet while spraying.
3. Using the brush on the tool, gently scrub the area to be cleaned.
4. For thorough cleaning, spray additional solution while the brush and suction are in contact with the surface.
5. Apply downward pressure on the tool and pull it toward you. The suction will remove the dirt and cleaning solution. Continue until no more dirt can be removed.
6. As a final step, use “drying strokes” (by not pressing the spray trigger) to remove as much liquid/moisture as possible. Repeat this step as often as necessary.

Deep Reach tool attachment
select models only

1. Follow instructions 1-5 on page 6 “Getting ready”.
2. Set tool on stain and press the trigger to spray solution onto the area to be cleaned.
3.  Slowly move the tool back and forth over the soiled surface, keeping the tool in contact with the carpet.
4. Release trigger and move tool slowly over the soiled area to suction up water and dirt.
5. Continue to clean the area, working in small sections, until no more dirt can be removed.
6. Remove tool from hose when finished. Clean under warm water before storing.

WARNING
Keep spray away from face. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.

IMPORTANT
Check the manufacturer’s tag before cleaning upholstery. “W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your Little Green ProHeat. If tag is  coded with an “S” (with diagonal strike-through), or says “Dry Clean Only,” do not proceed. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded,  check with your furniture dealer.

Tips

» Deep cleaning stairs and high-traffic areas on a regular basis helps prolong carpet life.
