The Bissell Crosswave Max is a cordless wet dry vacuum that can clean a variety of floors including sealed tile, wood, laminate, and even area rugs. It uses a combination of fresh water and cleaning solution to wash the dirt and grime right off the surface. It is one of the best investments you can make if you have a variety of floor types in your home.
One of the best accessories that is included with your purchase is the 3 in 1 docking station. It is called 3 in 1 because it not only charges the battery but also runs the cleaning cycle and stores the vacuum when not in use. It’s an important maintenance piece that you will love once you learn how to use it. Here is a quick rundown of how to get the most out of your docking station:
- If the docking station is plugged in, the Crosswave Max will immediately start charging once you place it in
- Press the self cleaning button to begin cleaning it after use
- Charging will pause once the self cleaning function starts but will resume as soon as it completes
- Once self clean is done you need to empty the dirty water tank, remove the brush roll, and remove the filter from the vacuum cleaner
- Place the brush roll and filter in the drying rack on the docking station so they can air dry
- Remove the machine from the station so you can wipe dry the tray, then put the Bissell back in the dock to continue charging
- If the battery is drained it will take about 4 hours to re-charge and you can leave the Crosswave on the docking station even after a full charge
- A digital display will show the current level of battery power
