Upholstery cleaning

Use the upholstery spraying nozzle to clean upholstered furniture, car 

seats, etc. Push this nozzle on the grip. Connect the spraying hose to 

the shut-off valve.
When cleaning upholstery make sure that not too much liquid is 

applied because you will have to take a longer drying time into 

account depending on the floor underneath.

See carpet cleaning for procedure .

We recommend 

THOMAS ProTex cleaning agent

 for upholste-

ry cleaning.

Sucking up liquids

You can suck up spilled, non-hazardous liquids on water basis 

(for example water, coffee, etc.) with the THoMAS PET + 

FRIENDS T1.

Take the Aquafilter unit out of the waste water tank, dismantle the 

long hair filter and fit the anti splash grid supplied in the accessories 

instead with fitted deflector. 
Choose a suitable nozzle and fit it on the suction pipe or hand grip, 

respectively. 

The float in the waste water tank automatically interrupts the 

sucking up operation if the waste water tank is full (you can 

clearly hear this from the higher running speed of the motor). 

Switch off appliance, disconnect the mains plug and empty the 

waste water tank. 

Cleaning and care

only service and clean the appliance when it is switched off and 

the mains power plug has been disconnected from the mains power 

supply. 

after wash cleaning / sucking up liquid

   Please use a moist soft cloth to clean the appliance housing.

Do not use any aggressive cleaning detergents or solvents.

Remove fresh water tank and empty.

Empty waste water tank.

Clean anti-splash grid, waste water tank and wet filter using 

clear, possibly warm water.

Check motor protection filter for contamination and clean 

under flowing water and renew, if necessary.

    Keep float (12b) in the waste water tank clean and fully 

functional at all times. This float interrupts the suction operation 

if the waste water tank is full.

Dry up spray water in suction chamber with soft cloth.

Remove contamination on the intake connector and on the 

inside of the housing cover.

The housing cover can be taken off the appliance 

for easier cleaning.  

To do this open the cover and swing down vertically. Press the 

cover forwards until it slides out of the hinge. Afterwards swing 

the cover upwards and out of the way.

Insert in the housing cover vertically and close it to fasten. The 

cover automatically clicks into the hinge.

Fill the fresh water tank with clear water to service 

the pump and valves and to make the appliance 

ready for operation .
Put the spraying system into operation (operate 

the lever on the shut-off valve) over a wash basin, 

for example .

Press the shut-off valve lever to make the system completely 

pressureless.

The appliance and accessory parts are to be thoroughly dried 

after being used for cleaning.

after vacuuming

1. AQUAFILTER system
open housing cover by lifting up the cover catch.
Remove waste water tank.
Pull the AQUAFILTER (11) out of the waste water tank by means of 

the grip and pour the waste water away (for example in the toilet).
Remove foam filter (11a). To do this pull the AQUA filter frame slightly 

upwards and then fold it over to the side out of the way.

Now thoroughly rinse the AQUA filter, foam filter, wet 

filter and the waste water tank with clear water . Do not 

use any cleaning detergents .
It is essential to ensure that the parts are dry before 

using again .

The filter can be also removed for easier cleaning if dirt and fluff 

have blocked the suction filter (11b); refit the suction filter after 

cleaning.

Remove contamination and fluff on the suction 

connector .

2. Cleaning the long hair filter:
The long hair filter (11c) does not normally need to be taken out of the 

waste water tank (12) for cleaning.
Simply remove the aqua filter, empty the waste water tank, fill with 

clean water and rinse out the long hair filter by slightly swinging  the 

waste water tank to and fro. Then again empty the waste water tank 

to dispose of the hairs in the water.
Should hairs unexpectedly get caught in the long hair filter grid and 

cannot be untangled by rinsing, then remove the filter upwards and 

clean separately under running water. Follow this by slipping the 

upright long hair filter between the waste water tank guide ribs up 

to the stop.

3. HEPA filter
Your PET + FRIENDS T1 is provided with a high quality HEPA filter 

(13), which can be cleaned several times depending on your needs 

and the type of dust found in your home.
Clean the filter if needed (at the latest every six months) and if the 

suction power decreases.

Remove the HEPA filter from the appliance and knock out the 

dirt on a firm surface.

If the filter is strongly contaminated it can also be rinsed out with 

clear water (without cleaning detergent) and be subsequently 

cleaned by knocking out the dirt.

    Do not use any brushes for cleaning . Always 

allow the filter to dry thoroughly before fitting it 

back into the appliance again

.

Do not damage the filter fins when cleaning the HEPA 

filter .

The filter is to be replaced by a new filter should the suction power of 

the appliance not be improved to a considerably extent after cleaning 

the HEPA filter.

4 MKA microfilter
The MKA microfilter (18) is to be replaced every six months.
To do this press down the two plastic lugs on the blow-out cover and 

fold it back.
Replace the MKA microfilter. Close the blow-out cover again.
