Operations
Stain removal
Do Not Delay! Attending to an accident soon
after it occurs ensures the most optimal clean.
Leaving it for an extended period of time may
cause it to set and become permanent.
1. Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or paper
towels. White materials are recommended
because certain dyes may bleed and make the
stain worse.
2. Gently scrape up any semi-solids with a spoon
or spatula. Do not use a knife or other utensil
with sharp edges because it could damage the
carpet or upholstery.
3. If the area has dried, remove the remaining
semi-solids and residue with a sweeper or
vacuum.
4. Be sure to test any spot removal formulas in
an inconspicuous area first. This is important
as some dyes and materials could be dam-
aged or discolored by cleaning solvents. If
such a change should occur, try a different
solution or call a professional.
5. If cleaning on Berber carpeting, gently run
your machine over a hidden area. If no fuzzing
occurs, continue cleaning in soiled area.
6. Using the BISSELL Tough Stain PreCleaner,
spray evenly over soiled area. Do not over-
wet. Wait 3-5 minutes. Gently work the
solution by blotting area with a clean, damp,
color safe cloth.
7. Clean using either the FLOOR CLEANING, or
TOOLS setting on the ReadyTools dial.
