The BISSELL ADAPT™ ION PET 2-in-1 Cordless Vacuum is designed for indoor, dry surface cleaning. Before first use, ensure the unit is charged for 8 hours. The vacuum features a removable hand vacuum for versatile cleaning and a 2-way folding handle for storage and cleaning under low furniture.
Assembly
The vacuum requires no tools for assembly. Simply insert the foot into the body of the vacuum until you hear a click.


Charging
Always charge the vacuum in a temperature range of 4-40°C (40-104°F). Use only the charger supplied with the product (Model ZD5F230030US). Plug the adapter into the charging port on the back of the vacuum, then connect to a wall outlet. Charge for 8 hours before the first use.

Operation
Using the vacuum: Press the power button to turn the vacuum ON. Use the brush button to toggle the motorized brush roll ON or OFF.

2-Way Folding Handle: Locate the release trigger under the handle. Pull the trigger to fold the handle forward for cleaning under low places or backward for easy storage.
Removable Hand Vacuum: Press the release button on top of the hand vacuum handle and pull it out to remove it from the main machine. Use the included crevice tool or upholstery tool by inserting them firmly into the hand vacuum nozzle.
Maintenance
Emptying the Dirt Tank: Ensure the vacuum is OFF. Remove the hand vacuum, hold it vertically, and press the release button on the front to release the dirt tank. Pull up the filter assembly to empty the debris.


Cleaning the Filters: Remove the dirt tank and the filter assembly. Grasp the filter tabs, turn counter-clockwise to remove the filter from the screen. You may rinse the filter and screen in warm water. Important: The filter and screen must be 100% dry before reuse.
Maintaining the Brush Roll: If the brush roll stops spinning, the LED light will turn solid red. Turn the vacuum OFF and disconnect the foot. Use a coin to turn the brush roll cover lock counter-clockwise to unlock. Remove the cover, clean hair or debris from the brush roll, and reassemble.
Troubleshooting
If the vacuum won't turn on, ensure it is fully charged and you are using the correct charger. If the LED light is solid red, the brush roll is stalled; clear any obstructions. If suction is low, check if the dirt tank is full, filters are dirty, or there is a clog in the foot area.
