 1 .2 Safety points

•  THOMAS PRESTIGE is intended for household use by 

adults.

•  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.

•  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.

•  Acetone, acids and solvents can attack the materials 

used in this appliance.

•  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.

•  Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is 

switched on and ensure that children do not play 

around with the appliance.

•  Always pull out the plug
  – if the appliance malfunctions during operation 

– before cleaning and maintenance 

– after use  

– when changing the filter.

•  Never unplug the appliance by pulling at the cable, 

but only by removing the plug directly from the 

socket.

•  Ensure that the main cable is not exposed to either 

heat or chemical substances, nor that it is pulled 

across sharp edges or surfaces.

•  Avoid using extension cables in wet rooms.
