Microbanantibacterial protection  
5.  
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.  
scotchgardprotector  
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 cleaning  
formulas with Scotchgard protector. This offers  
extra protection against dirt and tough stains  
to keep your carpets looking good longer.  
Tip:  
Always vacuum  
thoroughly before  
you deep clean.  
If possible, move  
large furniture to an  
area you will not  
be cleaning.  
To maintain your Scotchgard 5-year limited  
stain warranty, you no longer are required  
to hire a professional. By using your BISSELL  
machine with BISSELL formulas containing  
Scotchgard protector every 12 months, your  
carpet warranty from 3M remains in effect. No  
other home deep cleaning system can do this  
for you.  
before you clean  
1. Remove easily moved furniture (chairs,  
lamps, coffee/cocktail tables, etc.) from  
room if needed.  
2. Vacuum carpet thoroughly.  
3. Decide where to begin. Plan to leave  
a path open to empty soiled water and  
refill cleaner.  
note: carpeting will dry in three  
to four hours, depending on carpet  
style and air circulation in room. a  
floor fan speeds drying
