IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

PLEASE READ AND SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

When using this appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Read the instructions carefully before use.
Remove and safely discard any packaging material and labels before using this product for the first time. Ensure children and babies do not play with plastic bags or any packaging materials.
Before use, check that your local voltage corresponds with the specifications shown on the appliance nameplate located under the appliance.
Always operate the appliance on a horizontal surface that is level, stable and non-combustible. Do not operate the appliance on or near combustible materials such as tablecloths or curtains.
Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Never connect this appliance to an external timer or a separate remote-control system.
Never use this appliance with an extension cord or power board. Ensure it is plugged into a dedicated power point and without any other appliances on the same outlet.
The power base, plug and mains power lead must not come into contact with water or any other liquids. This could result in the risk of electric shock. You should therefore not, for example, place the kettle near a sink. Do not use the kettle outdoors.
The kettle housing body must never be immersed in water or any other liquids. Water must not come into contact with the electric parts from underneath.
Do not touch the appliance, power lead or plug with wet hands.
Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.
The appliance does not contain any serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to open and repair the appliance yourself. All components should only be serviced by a qualified technician.
Do not use the appliance if the plug, mains power lead or unit itself are damaged. If the power lead is damaged, you must have it replaced at a service centre by qualified persons to avoid a hazard.
Do not use the appliance for anything other than the intended use. It is for household use only. It is not to be used outdoors or for commercial purposes.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Keep the appliance and power lead out of reach of children when it is in operation or during the cooling process.
This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
- farmhouses;
- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential-type environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments.
This appliance should be operated on a separate electrical power point from other operating appliances. If the power point is overloaded with other appliances, this appliance may not work properly.
The kettle is intended solely for boiling water. Heating of milk, carbonated drinks or other liquids will cause malfunction or damage to the appliance.
Use only cold water when filling the kettle.
Unplug the kettle,
- if a disturbance occurs,
- if you are not going to use it for a prolonged period of time,
- during thunderstorms and
- before cleaning it.
The kettle becomes hot while in use. Do not move it during operation and do not pull on the mains power lead. Only hold the hot kettle by its handle.
Contact with rising steam can cause scalding. Make sure the lid is always securely closed and do not open it while pouring the water.
Do not fill the kettle with less than 0.5 litres or more than 1.7 litres of water. The appliance may overheat if there is not enough water in the kettle.
Do not let the power lead hang over the edge of the table or counter.
Do not unplug the appliance by pulling on the power lead.
This appliance is not designed to be used by people (including children) with a physical, sensory or mental impairment, or people without knowledge or experience unless they are supervised or given prior instructions concerning the use of the appliance by someone responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not leave the appliance operating while unattended.
Take care that any steam escaping from the appliance cannot damage wallpaper, cabinets, etc. Turn the spout away from furniture and walls.
Be sure that the kettle is switched off before taking it off the power base.
The kettle is only to be used with the power base provided.
If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may spill over. Ensure the kettle is never filled over the MAX line.

Before first use

Before using the kettle for the first time, discard all promotional packaging and boil fresh tap water at least twice in the appliance.
Use only cold water without any additives or other ingredients.

WARNING! Risk of fire and burns. The kettle and its lid become hot while in use, do not touch them.

Using the kettle

Remove the lid off the top of the kettle by pulling it upwards.
Fill the kettle between 0.5 litres and 1.7 litres with cold tap water. You can check the water level on the water level indicator under the handle.
Place the lid back on top of the kettle and firmly press down.
Fully unwind the power lead and plug it into a dedicated mains power supply.
Place the kettle on the base.
Press the power switch downward. The switch illuminates blue to indicate that the kettle is switched on.
When the water is boiled, the kettle turns off automatically. The power switch flips back up and no longer illuminates blue. If you want to stop heating the water before it boils, simply flip the power switch up.
After the water has come to a boil, wait a moment until the water has stopped simmering. Remove the kettle from the power base.
Pour the water slowly to avoid splashing. Never open the lid whilst pouring water.

WARNING! Risk of electrical shock. Always ensure that the kettle is switched off before removing it from the power base.

Never re-boil ‘stale’ water. Safely pour the excess water down the drain and start the next use with fresh tap water.

Cleaning & maintenance

Note: Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down completely before handling, cleaning, or storing.

The exterior of the kettle should be cleaned, if necessary, with a slightly damp cloth without additives.

Do not use abrasive cleaning products.

Descaling

The frequency of descaling depends on the hardness of the tap water and on how often the kettle is used. If the kettle switches off before the water boils, it may need to be descaled.

The kettle must be descaled at regular intervals, especially if the inside of the kettle is visibly encrusted with limescale. Regular descaling saves energy and increases the service life of the kettle.

For ecological reasons, we recommend using a 3:1 solution of tap water and vinegar or a 3:1 solution of tap water and citric acid to descale the kettle.

Let the solution soak inside the kettle for at least one hour, then bring it to a boil.
Safely pour the excess water down the drain and thoroughly rinse the inside of the kettle with fresh tap water.
