also should not be used. These products may
react with the plastic materials used in your
cleaner, causing cracking or pitting.

Product Features
BISSELL 2X Spot
& Stain Formula

Charging the battery
1. When charging for the first time, allow to
charge uninterrupted for at least 12 hours.
NOTE: When charging, the Spot Lifter and
charger may become warm to the touch. This is
normal and no cause for concern.
2. Spot Lifter must be in “ O ” (OFF) position to
charge.
3. When completely charged, your Spot
Lifter will operate for up to 15 minutes. When
completely discharged, it will take approximately
12 hours to fully recharge.
4. To charge your Spot Lifter, connect the round
end of the charger cord into the power port on
the back of the unit.
NOTE: Decreased operating time may indicate
that the battery has built up a charging
resistance. To recharge, first completely exhaust
the battery, recharge it, then exhaust it once
again before recharging a second time. This
procedure may be required more than once.
Filling the solution tank
1. Remove solution tank by grasping it firmly and
pulling straight up.
2. Unscrew and remove the cap. Add water and
formula* to the indicated fill lines on the solution
tank.
*Note: Your Spot Lifter includes a trial size
bottle of 2X formula.
3. Replace cap and place solution tank back on
unit.

After unit is charged

life of the battery.

Pre-treating
To aid in the removal of tough, stubborn stains,
pre-treating the stain may be necessary.
1. Hold the unit above the area to be cleaned.
Using the manual trigger spray, apply a sufficient
amount of water and solution to the stain.
2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.
Cleaning
1. Turn the power switch to the “ON” position. ( I )
2. While holding the Spot Lifter above the area
to be cleaned, apply water and formula by
pressing the manual trigger spray, dispensing
fluid to the soiled/stained area.
3. Brushing and suction can be done separately,
based on how you hold and use the unit.
For Suction Only:
Tilt the unit forward, pressing the front of the
Spot Lifter firmly against the surface area to be
cleaned, lifting the brushes up off the surface.
Pull toward you to remove the soil and cleaning
solution.
NOTE: Step 3 may be repeated until no more
dirty water is removed or until the area to be
cleaned meets your satisfaction.
4. Check the collection tank and empty the tank
if it is full (to empty the collection tank, see page
8).
5. If the Spot Lifter stops spraying, turn off the
unit and check the cleaning solution level in the
solution tank. Refill if needed. Never run the unit
without water or cleaning solution.
Spot cleaning upholstery
1. Check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning.
“W” or “WS” on the tag means you can use your
Spot Lifter PowerBrush. If tag is coded with an
“S” (with diagonal strike-through) or states “Dry
Clean Only”, do not proceed.
2. If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded,
check with your furniture dealer.
3. If possible, check upholstery stuffing. Colored
stuffing may bleed through fabric when wet.

means you can use your SpotLifter. 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.
