Before You Get Started

Helpful Tips to Get Ready:
• Place unit at least 4 ft away to reduce sound.
• When placing the unit on the floor, be sure to
set it on the sound dampening microfiber mat
to help reduce sound and protect your floor.
• Always use a BISSELL® No-Rinse Dog
Shampoo.
• If your dog has long hair, brush your pet's hair
before bathing.
• When selecting an area to bathe your
dog, choose a place where your pet feels
comfortable and safe. Usual choices include the
kitchen, utility room, garage or family room.
• Lay down a separate blanket or towel where
you will be bathing your dog.
Noise-Sensitive or Anxious Dog?
Some dogs are sensitive to loud noises, or are not fans of vacuums or other
loud appliances. Here are some quick training tips to help your dog have a great
experience with this new bathing method.
TRAINING STEPS
Phase 1
- Place the unit in a room where you plan
to bathe your dog. With the unit turned
off and allow the dog to become familiar
with it.
- With the unit turned off, have the dog
walk over to the unit and use the spray
nozzle as a "comb" to brush the dog.
- Praise your dog and offer a treat.
Phase 2
- With the dog out of the room, turn the
unit on. Leave the unit on and offer your
dog a treat.
