Operations  
Brush Switch  
brush switch  
the rotating brush is turned on or off  
using the switch located next to the  
power switch on the top of the tank.  
When the brush switch is on, the brush  
will start rotating when the unit is  
reclined. the brush should be on for  
most carpeted floors. you may want  
to turn the brush off for bare floor  
cleaning or other delicate surfaces.  
attention:  
Some Frieze carpets have long  
delicate fibers or threads that  
may be damaged by the rotat-  
ing brush during vacuuming. It is  
recommended the rotating brush  
be turned OFF when cleaning this  
type of carpet.  
Push the rocker switch “ON” (I) to turn the  
brush on, and “OFF” (O) to turn brush off.  
brush auto shut off feature  
When your cleaner is in the upright  
position, the brush will not rotate. the  
brush will rotate only when the clean-  
er is in the reclined position and the  
brush switch is on.  
While vacuuming, certain carpets  
and low humidity conditions may  
generate small static discharges.  
The discharges are entirely harm-  
less and are not associated in any  
way with the main power supply.  
height adjustments  
there are seven height settings avail-  
able for various floor surfaces. turn  
the dial on the foot of the cleaner to  
the desired setting.  
lowest setting – for low pile carpet  
or bare floors. To pick up debris it may  
be necessary to move up one setting.  
Medium settings – for medium pile  
carpet.  
high setting – for high pile and most  
shag/frieze carpet.  
note: for optimal carpet cleaning  
performance, adjust to the lowest  
practical setting. if your cleaner is  
difficult to push, adjust to the next  
higher setting.  
If the dial is difficult to turn, tilt the  
cleaner back slightly to take the weight  
off of the foot while turning.  
Some Berber carpets have a tendency  
to fuzz with wear. Repeated strokes  
in the same area may aggravate this  
condition. Consider setting your cleaner  
on a higher than normal setting for this  
type of carpet.

Maintenance and care  
thermal motor protection  
an internal thermal protector has been  
designed into your cleaner to protect it  
from overheating. When the thermal  
protector activates, the main vacuum  
motor will stop operating. if this  
happens, proceed as follows.  
1. Turn the cleaner OFF and unplug from  
electrical outlet.  
2. Check the cleaner for the source of  
overheating problem (i.e. full dirt cup,  
dirty filters or clog).  
3. Follow the steps for checking filters and  
clearing clogs on pages 10 and 11.  
4. When the motor cools for approximately  
30 minutes, the thermal protector  
automatically resets and cleaning may  
continue. If the cleaner will not turn on or  
the thermal protector continues to activate,  
your cleaner may need servicing. Call  
BISSELL Consumer Services or visit the  
website to locate an authorized Service  
Center.  
note: the thermal protector controls  
the main vacuum motor only, not the  
brush motor. if the thermal protec-  
tor activates, the brush will continue  
to operate normally; however, there  
will be no suction.
