This appliance should not be used by individuals with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities unless they have been supervised or provided with instructions on how to use the appliance safely. Children should always be supervised to ensure they do not play with the kettle. Additionally, keep the packing material out of children’s reach to prevent suffocation risks.

Danger due to Electricity
Ensure that the base, plug, and mains cord do not come into contact with water or other liquids to prevent electric shock hazards.

Risk of Burns/Scalding

  • Kettle Placement
    Always place the water kettle on a solid and even surface to prevent slipping or accidental dropping. Ensure that the power cord does not hang down.

  • Handling the Hot Kettle
    The kettle becomes hot during use. Do not move the kettle while it is in operation and avoid pulling on the mains cord. Only hold the hot kettle by its handle to prevent burns.

  • Steam Scalding
    Take caution to prevent contact with rising steam, which can cause scalding. Always ensure that the lid is firmly closed and do not open it while water is boiling or while pouring water out.

  • Water Level
    Do not fill the kettle with less than the minimum (0.5L) or more than the maximum (1.5L) amount of water. Insufficient water may cause overheating, while excessive water may lead to boiling water splashing out.

  • Switching Off and Removing from Power Base
    Always switch off the kettle before taking it off the power base to prevent accidents. If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected and cause scalding. Additionally, only use the kettle with the provided base and avoid operating it on an inclined plane. Ensure that the heating element is fully immersed and do not move the kettle while it is switched on.

  • Cleaning and Maintenance
    When cleaning the outside surface, use a soft cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid using alkaline cleaning agents to prevent damage to the appliance. Position the lid in a way that directs steam away from the handle to avoid potential burns. Take care to prevent spillage on the electrical connector, as it may lead to hazards. Misuse of the appliance may cause injury.

  4. Bring to a boil (see Boiling water), then pour away.

  5. Allow the kettle to cool down and then refill it fresh water, boil the water and then pour it away.
    To avoid scale deposits, descale the water kettle at regular intervals (after about every 15th use) as described in the section “Descaling”.

Boiling water

Color of light Green Blue Light Blue Purple Red

After the water is boiling, the kettle switches OFF automatically and the lamp will go out.

  • If you wish to stop heating the water before it boils, turn the On/Off switch to Off (0) position.
    • WARNING: Risk of scalding from hot water
    • Be sure that the water kettle is switched OFF before taking it off the power base.
  • After the water has come to a boil, wait a moment until the water has stopped simmering. Then remove the kettle from the water base.
  • Pour the water out slowly to avoid splashing. Do not open the lid while pouring out the water.
    • The sieve insert in the spout prevents any larger particles of scale being poured out.
    • Do not re-boil stale water. Pour it away and refill with fresh water for boiling.

CLEANING AND CARE

DANGER– risk of electric shock

  • Remove the mains plug from the wall socket before cleaning the kettle.
  • The power base, plug and mains cord must not come into contact with water or other liquids.
  • The water container must not be immersed in water.
  • The product and its parts must not be cleaned in the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT! Damage to exterior

  • Do not use caustic, aggressive or abrasive cleaning products for cleaning the kettle exterior.

Cleaning

  1. Remove the mains plug from the socket and let the water kettle cool down completely.
  2. Wipe the base and power cord with a dry cloth.
  3. Wipe the outside of the jug with a slightly moistened cloth.
  4. Pull the sieve out of the spout.
  5. Rinse it under running hot water.
  6. Slide the sieve into the spout as far as it will go.

Descaling

  • IMPORTANT! During the below process, DO NOT fill the kettle more than the Min water level mark (0.5L) on the kettle. Filling above the Min. water level mark will cause overboiling and spillage out of the spout. The kettle must be descaled at regular intervals, especially if the power base is visibly encrusted
    with lime scale. Regular descaling saves energy and increases the service life of the kettle.

  • For ecological reasons, we recommend using a three-to-one (3:1) solution of water and vinegar or citric acid to descale the kettle.

  • Note: we recommend preparing in the mixture in a separate container and then pouring into the kettle.

  1. Let the solution soak in the kettle for about an hour, and then bring it to the boil.
  2. Thoroughly rinse out the kettle with fresh water.

Alternatively, you may use commercially available kettle cleaning solutions. Please follow the instructions provided with the cleaning solution.
