5.1 Information and precautionary
measures for use
¼ Warning! Petrol, paint thinner, fuel oil, etc. may
form explosive vapours and compounds if mixed with
the suction air flow.
¼ Acetones, acids and solvents may attack the materials
used on the appliance. It is quite safe to vacuum water
containing ordinary household cleaning agents.
¼ After wet vacuuming or spray extraction, clean the
dirty-water container and all used parts and leave to
dry.
¼ Never use for vacuuming liquids or spray
extraction without the dirty-water contai-
ner.
¼ Your THOMAS TWIN AQUAFILTER is not intended
for vacuuming large quantities of liquid out of contai-
ners or basins.
¼ Caution! Never run the pump without liquid.
Before wet vacuuming carpets
¼ Ensure that everything you wish to wet vacuum is
suitable for this operation, e.g. do not wet vacuum
delicate, hand-woven or non-colourfast carpets.
To test, put a small amount of cleaning solution on
a white cloth and rub this onto a less conspicuous
area of the carpet. If no traces of colour come off
onto the cloth, you can assume that the carpet is
colourfast.
If this is not the case, the carpet must not be wet
cleaned.
If you are unsure, consult a carpet dealer.
If the carpet has been shampooed before, excessive
foam may form in the dirty-water container the first
time you use the THOMAS TWIN AQUAFILTER. To
prevent further suds forming add 1/2 cup of vinegar
to the dirty-water container.
If foam comes out of the air escape, switch off the
appliance immediately and empty the dirty-water
container.
There is no risk of excessive foaming once the carpet
has been cleaned thoroughly with the THOMAS
ProTex cleaning concentrate, as this contains a
special foam stopping ingredient.
You should not walk on the carpet while it is still
damp.
During cleaning and afterwards, the room should be
well aired, to enable the carpet to dry quickly.
• Read the “Points of safety” under section
1.2.

slosh insert (22).
H Remove the HEPA filter (20) from the appliance.
I Insert the anti-slosh insert (22) and dirty-water

does not cover the casing seal.
F Ensure that the float (59) in the dirty-water
container (24) is kept clean and in good condition.
It automatically interrupts the suction when the
dirty-water container is full.
J Remove the fresh water tank for filling (draw tank
straight upwards and out of the cleaner or fill up
directly in the appliance. In this case you have to
lift up fresh water tank cover.
When filling make sure that no impurities
get into the fresh water tankto prevent the
dosing valve from not functioning properly.
Fill up with cleaning concentrate and water to the
grip lug (max. 2,4 litres).
We recommend the THOMAS ProTex original
concentrated cleaning agent for cleaning
carpets.
See label on the cleaning concentrate bottle for
application and dosage.
Use hand warm water (max. 30°C).
Close the flap (5) and replace the fresh-water
tank (6).

suction pipe (34). Secure the cleaning agent
hose (26) on the suction hose (28) using 4 plastic
fasteners (33).

action coupling (8) until it clicks into place.
To release, press the button on the quick-action
