Special Features
Built-in-Heater feature
Your BISSELL PROheat 2X features a patented
built-in heater which will heat the hot tap water
you put in up to 25 degrees hotter to safely
optimize cleaning effectiveness. The heater will
never allow the temperature to exceed 190°F.
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.
2-in-1 Clean Water & Formula Tank
Our 2-in-1 tank full capacity system is designed
with a heavy duty bladder inside for clean water.
As you clean, dirty water pulled out of your
carpets will collect around the outside of the
bladder so that clean and dirty water are always
kept separate. This allows you to only carry
one tank to and from the sink for emptying
and filling.
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.
Before you clean
1. Move furniture to another area if cleaning an
entire room (optional).
2. Pick up all loose dirt, debris, and pet hair
before deep cleaning. If you’re cleaning just a
small area of carpeting or less than a whole
room, the ProHeat 2X Deep Cleaner may be
used to vacuum the area before deep cleaning.
If so, be sure to keep the red filter screen (in the
2-in-1 tank lid) cleaned of lint so that suction
is maintained. When you’re done, clear the red
filter screen and then rinse both the dirty water
and the clean solution tank (inside the flexible
bladder) with warm water before starting the
deep cleaning process.
3. Plan your cleaning route to leave an exit path.
It is best to begin cleaning in the corner farthest
from your exit.

NOTICE
Some Berber carpets have a tendency to fuzz
with wear. Repeated strokes in the same area
with an ordinary vacuum or deep cleaner
may aggravate this condition. Please see Stain
Removal instructions on page 10.

4. Pretreating (optional)
Pretreating is recommended to improve cleaning
effectiveness for heavily soiled carpet in high
traffic areas such as entryways and hallways.
BISSELL Stain PreTreat
a. Spray the BISSELL Stain PreTreat
formula onto heavy traffic areas, soiled
areas, or stains.
b. Allow to penetrate for at least 3 minutes.
c. Clean as normal, using the BISSELL
PROheat 2X machine on the high traffic

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.
a. Unlatch the top of the tank from the
bottom by lifting up on the tank latch
located on the back of the tank.
b . Remove the top of the tank by lifting

2.5oz when filled to the fill line. Using
the measuring cup provided, pour 5oz
of BISSELL 2X formula into the heavy
duty bladder. Fill the rest of the heavy
duty bladder with hot tap water
(140°F/60°C MAX). DO NOT BOIL
OR MICROWAVE WATER.
NOTE: Always use genuine BISSELL 2X
formulas to maximize cleaning and for
the safety of your machine.
d. 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.
e . Fasten tanks together by securing the
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.

2. Set ReadyTools Dial to the floor cleaning
setting.
3. Plug into a proper outlet and turn the power
and heater switches to the ON ( I ) position.
Allow 1 minute for the built-in heater to warm-up
before cleaning. The PROheat 2X will be fully
warmed and will provide optimal performance
after a minute of continuous heated cleaning.
4. Cleaning Strokes. While pressing the trigger,
make one slow forward wet pass and another
one back. Caution: Do not overwet. Take care not
to run over loose objects or edges of area rugs.
Stalling brush may result in premature belt failure.
NOTE: Your machine is equipped with a circuit
breaker that will automatically shut off the
brush if a large or loose object is caught in the
brush roll. If that happens, be sure to unplug
your machine, remove the foreign object, and
then plug the machine back in to reset the
circuit breaker.
Release the trigger and make one slow
forward and backward pass over the same area
to remove any residual dirty water and aid in
drying. Repeat cleaning passes until solution
being pulled up appears clean. Continue passes
without pressing the trigger until you can’t see
any more water being pulled up.
5. Remove the tank from the base of the
machine by lifting up on the tank carry handle.
Carry like a bucket to a utility sink or outside
where you will dispose of the dirty water.
a. Unlatch the top of the tank from the
bottom by lifting up on the tank latch
located on the back of the tank.
b . Remove the top of the tank by lifting up
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.
c. Lift the bottom portion of the tank;
pour out dirty water in the sink through
the triangular shaped opening in the corner
of the tank.
NOTE: You may notice hair & debris deposits on
the carpet or in the tank that were loosened by
the cleaning action. This debris should be picked
up and thrown away. Check the red lint filter
inside the tank for debris and remove before
continuing.
d. Fill the heavy duty bladder with clean
hot tap water and formula, following
instructions 1c through 1e on page 7.

the same time, and refill as needed.
6. Water rinse (recommended). Rinsing
is an optional step that can be done during the
cleaning process or after the carpeted area has
been completed. Empty the heavy-duty bladder
if necessary and refill with hot tap water only.
Replace the tank on the machine. Take care to
do a forward (wet) stroke by depressing the
trigger, and a backward (wet) stroke, followed by
a forward and backward (dry) stroke, releasing
the trigger. Continue this until the water you see
coming up the nozzle is clear. (see page 13 for
more machine care tips.)
Cleaning with attachments
Your PROheat 2X machine comes equipped with
a hose and at least one attachment for cleaning
stairs, upholstery, and more.
1. Important! If using to clean upholstery, check
upholstery tags.
a. Check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning.
“W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use
your PROheat 2X. If the tag is coded with an
“X” or an “S” (with a diagonal stripe through
it), or says “Dry Clean Only”, do not proceed
with any deep cleaning machine. Do not
use on velvet or silk. If manufacturer’s tag
is missing or not coded, check with your
furniture dealer.
b . Check for colorfastness in an
inconspicuous place.
c. If possible, check upholstery stuffing.
Colored stuffing may bleed through fabric
when wet.
d. Plan activities to allow upholstery time
to dry.
e . Pick up any loose dirt, debris and pet hair
before deep cleaning.
2. Follow the instructions on page 7 for filling
the 2-in-1 water and formula tank.
3. Set ReadyTools dial to the “TOOLS” setting.
This will allow spray and suction from the hose.
4. Attach the cleaning tool to the end of the hose.
5. Plug in and turn on the power switch and
heater (if desired).
NOTE: If your deep cleaner came with a
Deep Reach Tool or Stain Trapper Tool,
do not follow cleaning instructions below.
Instead, follow instructions in next section.

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 already dried, separate and
remove from the carpet whatever semi-solids
and residue that can be accessed before deep
cleaning.
4. Be sure to test any spot removal formulas in
an inconspicuous area first. This is important as
some dyes and materials could be damaged 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 Stain PreTreat, spray
evenly over soiled area. Do not overwet. 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.
