Special features 
Your BISSELL CleanView® Deep Clean 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 a lot of unique features, it has 
been designed with you, the customer, 
in mind.
Built-in-heater feature 
BISSELL CleanView® Deep Clean models all 
feature a patented built-in heater which will 
heat the hand hot tap water you put in up to 
14° C hotter to safely optimise cleaning effec-
tiveness. The heater will never allow the tem-
perature to exceed 82° C. 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.  Hose Secure Latch

Operations
Custom Clean™
The Custom Clean feature automatically mixes 
hand hot tap water with the BISSELL 2X formula. 
Simply choose one of the 4 settings (heavy  
traffic, normal clean, light clean, or water rinse) 
and the CleanView
® Deep Clean will adjust the 
right amount of cleaning solution to mix with the 
heated water to fit your cleaning need.
CleanShot™ 
The CleanShot feature gives you the ability to 
tackle tough stains with the push of a button. 
Cleaning solution is sprayed in a concentrated 
stream, penetrating the stain and allowing for 
better cleaning focus. Simply spray and suc-
tion and the stain is gone! CleanShot is espe-
cially effective for spots and stains that would 
otherwise take a lot of deep cleaning cycles 
to remove. It allows the cleaning formula and 
machine to do the work for you.
DryAire™
The Dry Aire system spreads hot air across the 
carpet to aid in drying. The feature runs while 
your machine is powered. 
Flow indicator 
The flow indicator is located on the rear cover 
of your unit. When the unit runs out of water or 
solution the flow indicator will instantly let you 
know
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 sepa-
rate. This allows the user to only carry one tank 
to and from the sink for emptying and filling.
Microban® antibacterial protection
Microban antibacterial protection helps prevent 
the growth of harmful common household bacteria 
including  E. coli, Salmonella and Staph. a. It 
helps to keep the unit fresher and cleaner between 
uses. Flow Indicator

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.
Scotchgard™ Protector
Carpet protection applied at the mill typically 
wears down over time from heavy foot traffic and 
everyday cleaning, including deep cleaning. To 
help restore this important protection, only BISSELL 
offers deep cleaning formulas with Scotchgard 
protector. This offers extra protection against dirt 
and tough stains to keep your carpets looking 
good longer.

Operations
Before you clean
1. Move furniture to another area if 
cleaning an entire room (optional).
2.  Vacuum area with a dry vacuum 
cleaner thoroughly before deep cleaning.
3.  Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit 
path. It is best to begin cleaning in the   
corner farthest from your exit.  
4.  Pretreating  (optional) 
Pretreating is recommended to improve 
cleaning effectiveness for heavily soiled 
carpet in high traffic areas such as   
entryways and hallways. 
  Option A: BISSELL Tough Stain Precleaner
A.  Spray the BISSELL Tough Stain  
Precleaner formula onto heavy traf-
fic areas, soiled areas, or stains.
B.  Allow to penetrate for at least 3 minutes.
C.  Clean as normal, using the BISSELL 
CleanView
® Deep Clean machine on 
the high traffic setting, following the 
instructions below.
    Option B: CleanShot
Follow instructions on page 12.
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 aggra-
vate this condition. Please see 
Stain Removal instructions on 
page 15 .

Carpet cleaning
1. Fill the 2-in-1 Water Tank. Remove the tank 
from the base of the machine by lifting up 
the tank carry handle. Carry like a bucket 
to the sink.
1a.  Unlatch the top of the tank from the 
bottom by lifting up on the tank latch 
located on the back of the tank.

on the handle. 
Note how the lip on the top tank 
separates from the groove in the 
bottom tank. This placement is 
important when putting the tank 
back together.

hand hot tap water. 
*Do not boil or microwave water 
as it can destroy the bladder. 
1d.  Leaving the filled bottom of the tank on 
a flat surface, only maneuver the top of 
the tank. To attach the top part of the 
tank to the bottom, carefully hook the lip 
on the top tank into the groove on the 
bottom tank.

latch in the back.
Note: Remember to secure the tank 
latch in the back and test to make 
sure it is secure before picking up 
the tank.

machine.

the cap and insert. Always use genuine 
BISSELL 2X formulas to maximize clean-
ing and for the safety of your machine. 
Fill with water to WATER line and then 
fill up to FORMULA line with BISSELL 2X 
formula. Replace formula tank.
