Maintenance and care

Machine storage

Once your cleaning is complete, make sure the 2-in-1 water tank is emptied, rinsed out, and dried before the next use. The formula tank can remain filled and ready to go, or it can simply be emptied back into the formula bottle if that is more convenient.

Note: Store cleaner in a protected, dry area. Since this product uses water, it must not be stored where there is a danger of freez- ing. Freezing will damage internal compo- nents and void the warranty.

Machine care

For best results, a few simple steps can assure your machine is well maintained after your cleaning is complete.

1.Turn power and heater switches OFF (O). Unplug the machine and wrap the power cord.

2.After emptying the 2-in-1 water tank, rinse it out at a faucet with running hot tap water, taking care to clean underneath the heavy duty bladder, and all around it.

3.The top half of the tank can be rinsed clean through the nozzle area. Also, pop out the red filter underneath the top half of the tank and rinse that out. Replace before putting the top and bottom halves of the tank together.

4.Before you place the cleaned 2-in-1 water tank back onto the machine, simply unscrew the floor nozzle using a Phillips head screwdriver. This can be rinsed out at the faucet. Then replace back onto the machine by starting from the bottom of the nozzle and hooking the tabs into the holes on the bottom sides of the machine. Secure into place with the screw.

5.The inside of the end caps by the brush rolls can be wiped out with a clean paper towel, or, if a more thorough cleaning is desired, the end caps can be taken off using a Phillips

head screwdriver and rinsed clean. Replace after cleaning.

6.Any loose hair or debris can be pulled from the brush rolls and thrown away. For the most thorough clean before storage, follow directions on pages 17 & 18 for removal and replacement of the brush rolls and belts.

8960, 9300, 8920 specifications

The Bissell 8960 and 8930 are two powerful vacuum cleaners designed to tackle pet hair, dust, and allergens with exceptional efficiency. These upright vacuums stand out in the crowded market due to their advanced features and innovative technologies that cater to the needs of pet owners and households looking for a thorough clean.

One of the key features of both models is the Pet Hair Eraser technology. This specialized system includes a tangle-free brush roll that prevents hair from wrapping around the brush, effectively making post-cleaning maintenance easier. Additionally, the vacuum comes equipped with a pet turbo eraser tool that helps in capturing even the most stubborn pet hair from furniture, stairs, and other surfaces.

Another notable characteristic of the Bissell 8960 and 8930 is their Multi-Cyclonic System. This technology uses multiple cyclones to separate dirt and debris from the air, ensuring powerful suction that lasts longer without losing efficiency. As a result, users can enjoy consistent cleaning performance regardless of the mess or surface type.

The lightweight and ergonomic design of these vacuums allows for easy maneuverability around the home. The swivel steering enables effortless navigation around furniture and corners, making it easy to reach tight spaces. Whether you need to clean carpets, hardwood floors, or upholstery, these vacuums offer versatility in their cleaning capabilities.

Both models also feature a HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97% of allergens and fine dust particles, providing a cleaner and healthier environment. This makes them an excellent choice for allergy sufferers, as the sealed allergen system prevents dust and allergens from being released back into the air during cleaning.

In terms of convenience, the Bissell 8960 and 8930 come with a large capacity dirt tank that allows users to clean for extended periods without frequent emptying. The easy-to-empty design ensures that disposing of collected debris is a hassle-free process.

Additionally, the corded design provides unlimited runtime, so there's no need to worry about battery life during long cleaning sessions. The combination of powerful suction, advanced filtration, and specialized pet cleaning tools truly makes these models a top choice for pet owners and anyone seeking a reliable vacuum for their cleaning needs.
