Special tools
Your BISSELL vacuum is not only a powerful
carpet and rug vacuum cleaner, it’s also a
versatile above floor vacuum cleaner when
you select one of the special tools.
1. Raise handle to upright position.
2. Grasp the hose wand and separate from the
hose wand base.
3. Attach tools by firmly pushing onto vacuum
hose or extension wand.
a. Crevice Tool Use in tight narrow spaces.
b. Dusting Brush Use brush to dust
furniture, blinds, books, lamps, shelves
and baseboards.
c. Extension Wand Use with desired
attachment for a longer reach.
d. TurboBrush™ Pet Tool (select models)
Use rotating brush action for small flat
areas such as stairs and cushions. Press
gently down and pull toward you in a
raking motion; too much pressure will
cause the brush to stop rotating.
e. Pet Hair Corner Tool (select models)
Use tool in corners of room or stairs to pick
up annoying dirt left stuck in the corners.
Automatic Cord Rewind
1. Gently pull out power cord and stop
when yellow band is visible. Do not pull
power cord beyond the red line. Plug
cord into electrical outlet.
2. To return cord, turn vacuum power switch
off, and remove plug from outlet. Hold plug and
press automatic cord button to wind cord into
reel. Do not allow plug to whip when rewinding.
WARNING
The rotating floor brush continues to rotate while tools
are in use. To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts,
always move the cleaner with the carrying handle at the
back of the cleaner. Always place vacuum cleaner on floor
with handle in upright position when using tools. Never
place your fingers under the cleaner when it is running.
Never place powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Do
not place vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull
them into rotating brush.
» The crevice tool is located
inside the wand
