Carpet cleaning (Continued)

6.After cleaning, you may want to turn the Custom Clean dial to rinse to give your carpeting a final water only rinse. This will ensure thorough removal of embedded dirt loosened by the deep cleaning formula. BISSELL deep cleaning for- mulas contain an anti-resoiling agent that helps your carpets repel dirt and keeps them look- ing good longer.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock due to internal component damage, use only BISSELL cleaning fluids intended for use with the deep cleaner.

7.Remove the tank from the base of the machine by lifting up on the tank carry handle. Carry like a bucket to a utility sink or outside where you will dispose of the dirty water.

7a. Unlatch the top of the tank from the bottom by lifting up on the tank latch which is located on the back of the tank.

7b. Remove the top of the tank by lifting up on the handle.

Note how the lip on the top tank separates from the groove in the bottom tank. This placement is important when putting the tank back together.

7c. Lift the bottom portion of the tank; pour out dirty water toward the sink through the triangular shaped opening in the corner of the tank.

Note: You may notice hair & debris deposits on the carpet or in the tank that were loosened by the cleaning action (especially with newer carpets that have never been deep cleaned before). This debris should be picked up and thrown away.

7d. Fill the heavy duty bladder with clean hot tap water, following instructions 1c through 1e on pages 9 and 10.

Note: Remember to secure the tank latch in the back and test to make sure it is secure before picking up the tank. Always check the level of cleaning formula in the formula tank at the same time, and refill as needed.

8.Water rinse (Optional). Rinsing is an optional step that can be done during the cleaning pro- cess by switching from one of the clean settings on the Custom Clean dial to a water rinse setting, or it can be done after the carpeted area has been cleaned. Simply choose the water rinse setting on the custom clean dial, and follow the same path as you did for cleaning, taking care to do a forward (wet) stroke by depressing the trigger, a backward (wet) stroke, and a forward and backward (dry) stroke, releasing the trigger. Continue this until the water you see coming up the nozzle is clear.

Keep plenty of genuine BISSELL Fiber Cleansing Formula™ on hand so you can clean whenever it fits your schedule. Always use genuine BISSELL deep cleaning formulas. Non-BISSELL cleaning solutions may harm the machine and void the warranty.

9600 specifications

The Bissell 9600 is an advanced carpet cleaner that excels in deep cleaning performance while offering a range of innovative features designed to make the process as efficient and user-friendly as possible. This powerful machine stands out in the crowded market of cleaning devices with its exceptional capabilities in removing tough stains, dirt, and allergens from carpets and upholstery.

One of the primary features of the Bissell 9600 is its dual tank system. This design separates clean water from dirty water, ensuring that users always apply fresh, clean solution for effective cleaning. The clean tank holds water and cleaning solution, while the dirty tank collects the wastewater, making it easy to see when it’s time to empty. This separation not only enhances cleaning efficiency but also simplifies the cleaning process.

The Bissell 9600 is equipped with powerful suction technology that works in tandem with its cleaning brushes. The machine uses rotating brushes to agitate and lift dirt from the carpet fibers while the strong suction removes the loosened debris effectively. This combination of scrubbing and suction results in superior cleaning performance, making it ideal for homes with pets or children.

A key characteristic of the Bissell 9600 is its lightweight design. Unlike many traditional carpet cleaners that can be bulky and cumbersome, the 9600 is easy to maneuver, making it suitable for various spaces and providing excellent portability. This ease of movement is further enhanced by its ergonomic handle, which ensures a comfortable grip during operation.

Another noteworthy technology featured in the Bissell 9600 is the Heatwave Technology. This innovative feature helps to maintain the water temperature throughout the cleaning process, ensuring optimal cleaning effectiveness. Warm water enhances the action of carpet cleaning solutions, leading to better stain removal and a deep clean.

Additionally, the Bissell 9600 comes with a range of specialized tools and accessories, including a tough stain tool and an upholstery tool. These attachments enable users to tackle stains and messes on various surfaces beyond just carpets, such as stairs, furniture, and other fabric surfaces.

In terms of maintenance, the Bissell 9600 is designed for easy upkeep. The formula tanks and cleaning brushes can be easily removed and rinsed, ensuring that the machine stays ready for the next cleaning task.

Overall, the Bissell 9600 combines powerful suction, advanced cleaning technologies, and user-friendly features, making it a reliable choice for those seeking a thorough carpet cleaning solution.
