Special features  
Your BISSELL ProHeat 2X deep cleaner is a home  
cleaning system that uses the power of heat,  
brushes and cleaning formula to get the deep  
down dirt for a maximum clean. not only does it  
come with a lot of unique features, it has been  
designed with you, the customer, in mind.  
Built-in-Heater feature  
BISSELL ProHeat 2X models all feature a patented  
built-in heater which will heat the hot tap water  
you put in up to 25 F degrees (14oC) hotter to  
safely optimize cleaning effectiveness. The heater  
will never allow the temperature to exceed 190 F  
degrees (88oC). 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.  
Dual DirtLifterPowerBrushes  
The two DirtLifter PowerBrush rolls are  
designed to enhance cleaning performance.  
The bristle pattern safely lifts out the deep  
down dirt while gently grooming carpet fibers.  
The floating suspension self-adjusts to all  
carpet heights. Once the product is in the  
upright position, the brushes automatically  
stop spinning.  
Custom Clean™  
The Custom Clean feature automatically mixes  
hot tap water with the BISSELL formula. Simply  
choose one of the 4 settings (heavy traffic,  
normal clean, light clean, or water rinse) and the  
ProHeat 2X will adjust the right amount of  
cleaning solution to mix with the heated water to  
fit your cleaning need.  
Having a separate solution tank from the water  
tank also allows no waste of formula. Because the  
water and solution are stored separately, they are  
not mixed until you are ready to clean. When your  
cleaning job is finished, the formula can be stored  
ready to use in your machine for the next time!

Special features  
CleanShot™  
The CleanShot feature gives you the ability to  
tackle tough stains with the push of a button.  
Cleaning solution is sprayed in a concentrated  
stream, penetrating the stain and allowing for  
better cleaning focus. Simply spray and  
suction and the stain is gone! CleanShot is  
especially effective for spots and stains that  
would otherwise take a lot of deep cleaning  
cycles to remove. It allows the cleaning  
formula and machine to do the work for you.  
Flow Gauge  
Dry Aire  
The Dry aire system spreads hot air across the  
carpet to aid in drying. The feature runs while  
your machine is powered. Heated air is distributed  
from the bottom and back of the machine and  
blown across the carpet while you clean!  
®
CleanShot  
Flow Gauge  
Dry Aire  
The flow gauge is located on the rear cover of  
your unit and is a convenient performance  
feedback indicator.  
The flow gauge will spin when the trigger is  
depressed and:  
• There is liquid in both the clean water tank  
and the formula tank  
OR  
• Custom Clean is set to rinse and there is  
water in the clean tank  
The flow gauge will stop spinning when:  
• The trigger is let go  
• The unit runs out of clean water  
• The unit runs out of cleaning formula  
2-in-1 water tank  
Our 2-in-1 water tank full capacity system is  
designed with a heavy duty bladder inside for clean  
water. as you clean, the clean water in the bladder  
will empty and mix with the cleaning formula. 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 the  
user to maximize tank space, yet only carry one  
tank to and from the sink for emptying and filling.

now, cleaning up your machine after the  
cleaning process is easier than ever! Simply  
remove the 2-in-1 Tank and remove the screw  
to pop out the nozzle for rinsing in the sink. Dirt,  
loose carpet fibers and remaining pet hair or  
fuzz get washed away in a snap.  
ReadyTools dial  
This provides either floor cleaning or above floor  
cleaning with the turn of a knob. If choosing  
above floor cleaning for upholstery, stairs, or for  
those creases close to the baseboards, turn knob  
to "TOOLS" and choose the attachment  
appropriate for the job. attach tool to the flex hose  
and you are ready to go. Be sure to turn knob  
back to "FLOOR CLEanInG" when done.  
Scotchgard Protector  
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 deep cleaning formulas with  
Scotchgard protector. This offers extra protection  
against dirt and tough stains to keep your carpets  
looking good longer.  
To maintain your Scotchgard 5-year limited stain  
warranty, you no longer are required to hire a  
professional. By using your BISSELL ProHeat  
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. Refer to  
the Scotchgard protector warranty for details.

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 manufactur-  
er’s tag is missing or not coded, check with  
your furniture dealer.

place.  
C. If possible, check upholstery stuffing.  
Colored stuffing may bleed through fabric  
when wet.

Operation  
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 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.
