6 Special Features of Your BISSELL ProHeat™ClearView® The BISSELL SmartClean®System The ProHeat ClearView is a home cleaning system that automatically mixes hot tap water with the BISSELL advanced cleaning formula and heats the solution as it is applied to the carpet. The combination of heated cleaning solution, powered brush and suction provide a safe & effective method of cleaning. Temperature control automatically heats the cleaning solution as it is being applied to the carpet (*) to safely optimize cleaning effectiveness. The Power Switch controls power to the machine; both switches must be ON for SmartTemp to work. The SmartTemp Switch is found on the back of the handle next to the Power Switch. You may choose not to use the SmartTemp feature if you are cleaning delicate wool or oriental rugs. *SmartTemp heats the cleaning solution for carpet and bare floor application only. It does not heat solution sprayed through the accessory tools. The SmartTemp Ready Light indicates when the heater is ON. The heater should be turned on two minutes before cleaning, to become fully warmed up and ready to clean. The Smart Temp Ready Light is found on the front of the handle where itis easy to see while you clean SmartTemp increases the water temperature 25° and will not allow it to exceed 180°. Provides custom control for each cleaning job. Lift the SmartMix concentrate bottle up and out of the machine base. Turn the bottle over so that the valve cap is in an upward position. Unscrew the valve cap and fill the bottle to the mark with BISSELL Deep Cleaning Formula. Replace the valve cap turning until snug. SmartTemp® 1. 2. 3. 4. SmartMix bottle SmartMix® 1. 2. 3.

7 SmartMix Continued Replace SmartMix concentrate bottle. Note: If bottle leaks, check for proper positioning of o-ring and straw. Choose the SmartMix setting that fits the cleaning job. Water Rinse - use for gentle cleaning or for the final rinse after cleaning. Normal- automatically provides the best mix of water and concentrate for most cleaning jobs. High Traffic- automatically mixes the right amount of water and concentrate to dissolve tough grime and heavy soil. Note: Residual cleaning materials left in carpet from other products may cause excessive foaming when picked up. If foam is overflowing tank, move SmartMix dial to “Water Only” position until the condition stops. Note: Both the SmartMix Bottle and the clean water tank must have liquid in them in order for the machine to spray. If one tank is empty, the machine will temporarily lose its prime and not apply either cleaning solution or water only. Important: If you are using the WATER RINSE setting, fill the Smart Mix bottle with water also! The pow- ered brush roll at the floor nozzle is designed to enhance cleaning performance. The bristle pattern lifts out the deep down dirt while gently grooming carpet fibers. The floating suspension self-adjusts to all carpet heights and protects your carpet if you leave the power switch ON. When the machine handle is in the fully upright position, CarpetSaver automatically raises the brush off the carpet. 4. 5. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, be extra careful when cleaning stairs. Make sure machine is secure and level. O-ring Position Tip: Deep Cleaning stairs and high traffic areas on a regular basis can prolong carpet life. SmartMix Dial When filling bottle or storing unit, set dial to: HIGH TRAFFIC W ATER RINSE NORMAL DirtLifter®PowerBrush WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only BISSELL Deep Cleaning Formula in your ProHeat ClearView. Use of cleaning formulas which contain lemon or pine oil may damage this appli- ance and void warranty. Chemical spot cleaners or solvent based soil removers should not be used. These products may react with the plastic materials used in your ProHeat ClearView, causing cracking or pitting.
8 Tank-in-Tank Our Tank-in-Tank system is designed with a Bladder inside for clean water. As you clean, the Bladder will empty. Dirty water collects in the tank outside the Bladder. Step on handle release to lay the machine handle down out of the way. Lift the Tank-in-Tank handle. The handle locks the lid in place. Carry it like a bucket to fill at the sink. Note: You may notice hair and debris deposits on the carpet that were loosened by the brushing action (especially with newer carpets that have never been deep cleaned before). This debris should be picked up and thrown away. Debris that deposits in the Brush Belt should be cleaned between uses to keep the Belts running free. Set the tank down and rotate the handle forward to unlatch the lid. Lift off and set the lid aside. Find the mouth of the Bladder and fill to the bottom of the neck with clean hot tap water.*Do not boil or microwave water as it can destroy the Bladder. Note: Fill the Bladder with clean hot tap water only. Replace the Tank Lid matching the lid and tank edges. Handle must be in the forward position to reinstall. Rotate the handle to the carrying position to re-latch the lid. Replace tank in machine base, seating firmly in place. Rotate handle back down to the latched position. Note: Both the SmartMix Bottle and the clean water tank must have liquid in them in order for the machine to spray. If one tank is empty the machine will not apply either cleaning solution or water. Important: If you are using the WATER RINSE setting, fill the SmartMix bottle with water also! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

10 The Flow Indicator This is located on the machine base. It spins when the trigger is pressed to indicate that the machine is applying cleaning solution to the floor. It will stop spinning to indicate that the SmartMix bottle or Bladder needs to be refilled, or when the trigger is released. Flow Indicator does not spin when set to Tool setting. This provides above floor cleaning with the flip of a switch. Just choose the cleaning tool, attach to the flex hose and ProHeat Clearview is ready to clean upholstery, stairs or more.* *Set the dial to Floor Cleaning when cleaning carpets or bare floors or set it to Tools/PreTreat when using the flex hose attachments or for pre-treating floors. *SmartTemp heats the cleaning solution for carpet and bare floor application only. It does not heat solution sprayed through the accessory tools. (Available on select models only) Unplug cleaner from outlet before attaching TurboBrush. Attach TurboBrush to the flex hose by pressing tool onto the grip/trigger until button snaps into hole. Make certain tool is securely in place. Move the TurboBrush switch to the “BRUSH” position. This activates the brush. Place the tool directly on the soiled surface. Apply downward pressure on the tool and pull towards you while pulling trigger to spray cleaning solution. Release the spray trigger and move the switch to the “SUCTION” position. Vacuum the area until no more cleaning solution can be removed. Repeat steps 1-3 until no more dirt can be removed.
