SpotClean Turbo AutoMate

The SpotClean Turbo series of machines are compatible with most BISSELL carpet cleaning formulas labelled for use with full-size upright carpet cleaners or portable machines.

The SpotClean Turbo series of machines have internal designs and components derived from a full-size upright machine. This is why they are compatible with all BISSELL carpet cleaning formulas, regardless of whether labelled for use in portable machines or full-size upright carpet cleaners.

Other SpotClean portable spot cleaners are only compatible with the low-foaming BISSELL formulas labelled for use in portable machines.

Pretreating is the first step in deep cleaning your carpets or fabric upholstery. For best results, particularly on set-in stains, use the pretreatment spray at least 15 minutes prior to using the machine. Pretreating beforehand loosens and mobilises embedded dirt, stains, and odours, allowing for optimal cleaning results.

SpotClean Turbo AutoMate is suitable for use on most types of carpet and fabric upholstery. However, we strongly recommend checking the care instructions of your carpet/upholstery first to ensure compatibility, and performing a test patch in a discreet area. We do not recommend using carpet washers on loop-pile/berber carpet, pure or delicate wool, silk, jute, viscose, leather, natural suede, or other materials sensitive to water and agitation.

We recommend adding Oxy Boost to your tank with your formula for best results on old stains, stubborn messes, and lighter-coloured fabrics or carpets.

The BISSELL portable and handheld carpet washer are wet spray/extraction machines only. Do not use them for picking up dry debris. You may damage your deep cleaner and void your warranty. It is recommended to vacuum the area with a dry vacuum (where possible) before using your deep cleaner to remove debris and hair. Please refer to the “how to use” section of your User’s Guide for additional details.

Simply use the Hydro-Rinse Tool after each use to flush your hose clean before storage (included with select models). The Hydro-Rinse Tool can also be purchased separately on our website.

The included attachments, warranty, suction motor strength, hose length, and other features can differ between models. To find the right machine for you, use our website's compare function to compare up to three products at a time. Look for the 'Compare' or 'Compare this product' buttons.

Drying time varies greatly by the type of carpet or fabric upholstery, the density/thickness of the pile, airflow around the area, and cleaning technique of the user. However, it is best to wait at least two to three hours before walking on the carpet after deep cleaning.

Some of our full-size upright machines include Express Mode - which can have carpets dry in as little as half an hour.

Note: The user is in control of the water output with BISSELL machines. Press the trigger to release water & formula, let go of the trigger to dry. Continuously holding down the trigger is not necessary.
