 Safety points

•  THOMAS PRESTIGE is only for use in the home.
•  The appliance must not be put into operation if:

  – the mains cable is damaged

  – the appliance shows clear signs of damage

  – the appliance has fallen or been dropped.
•  The voltage data on the appliance’s rating plate must 

conform to the power supply.

•  Do not allow nozzles and tubes (when the appliance 

is switched on) to come within the proximity of the 

head – danger for eyes and ears, for example.

•  Do not vacuum noxious substances or corrosive or 

solvent liquids.

•  Never operate the appliance in rooms where 

inflammable materials are stored or where gases 

have formed.

•  Store the appliance and its attachments in a dry, 

clean and enclosed space.

•  Materials such as petrol, paint thinner and heating 

oil can form explosive gases or mixtures by being 

subjected to centrifugal air from the appliance.

•  Never vacuum hot ash or glowing objects.
•  Check before every use to be sure that you have correctly 

fitted the filters required for the specific application.

•  Do not vacuum toner dust! Toners such as those used 

in printers and copiers, can be electric conductors!  

Furthermore, it is possible that the appliance’s filter 

system will not completely filter out toner dust,  and in 

this way it can enter the air supply of the room.

•  Extreme care is required when vacuuming stair carpets 

with your appliance.  Ensure that the vacuum cleaner 

stands firmly on the step and take care that the flexible 

hose is not stretched beyond its actual length.  When 

using the vacuum cleaner on stairs, always ensure that 

you hold the appliance steady with one hand.

•  Never leave the appliance switched on when 

unattended.

•
