The combination of heated solution, rotating brushes and powerful suction provide a safe and effective method of cleaning. Special Features of Your BISSELL ProHeat Your BISSELL ProHeat Deep Cleaner is a home cleaning system that automatically mixes hot tap water with BISSELL advanced cleaning formulas and heats the solution as it is applied to the carpet. The combination of heated solution, rotating brushes and powerful suction provide a safe and effective method of cleaning. Special Features of Your BISSELL ProHeat SmartTemp® The BISSELL ProHeat models all feature a patented built-in heater which will heat 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 180°. The Heater Switch which is located on the back 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. DirtLifter® PowerBrush The DirtLifter PowerBrush is 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. When the power is ON ( I ) and the machine is in the upright position, your carpet is protected because the brushes are lifted up off the carpet. SmartMix® The SmartMix feature automatically mixes hot tap water with the BISSELL advanced cleaning formula. Simply choose one of the 3 settings (High Traffic, Normal, or Water Rinse) and the ProHeat 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 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! This feature is available on all ProHeat models.

To help restore this important protection, only BISSELL offers deep cleaning formulas with Scotchgard protector as well as a post-applicator to apply the same Scotchgard protector used by carpet mills. 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. Tank-in-Tank™ Our tank in tank 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. Ready Tools Dial This provides either floor cleaning or...
