DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Remove all wrapping material from the electric kettle and its base stand.
• Fill the kettle with clean water up to the maximum water mark. Boil the water and empty the contents of the kettle. Repeat this process 2 to 3 times. To boil water, proceed according to the instructions in chapter Operation.
• Clean the outer surface of the kettle, the base stand and the power cord only using a dry wiping cloth. Do not submerge any of these parts in water, do not clean them under running water or place them in a dishwasher.

OPERATION

• Set the required power cord length and push it into the groove in the base stand. Place the base stand on a stable, even and clean surface. Connect the power cord plug to a power socket.

• Open the lid by pressing the button on the lid and fill the kettle with the required amount of water. The water level must reach at least the minimum mark but must not exceed the maximum mark. After filling the kettle, properly close the lid.
  Attention:
  Never fill the kettle when it is placed on the base stand.

• Place the kettle on the base stand. Insert the power plug into a power socket and push down the On/Off switch to the ON position to start the kettle. The backlight of the switch will be lit.
  Attention:
  The electric kettle is intended only for heating water.
  Never heat any other liquids or substance in it.
  Never start the kettle empty without water.
  Incorrect use may negatively affect its lifetime. If you accidentally turn on the kettle without water, it will automatically turn off after reaching a certain temperature. The kettle can be used again, once the heating bottom has cooled down.

• When the water starts to boil, the kettle will turn off automatically and the backlight will turn off.
  Note:
  You can pause the water heating process at any time by setting the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

• Pour the boiled or heated water into a prepared container, cup or mug. Make sure that the kettle remains in a vertical position when it is carried, particularly if it is filled all the way up to the maximum mark.

• If you wish to refill the kettle, be especially careful when opening the lid to avoid scalding by the escaping steam.

• When you have finished using it, disconnect the power cord from the power socket. Empty the kettle and allow it to cool down.

PROTECTION AGAINST BOILING WITHOUT WATER

• If you accidentally turn on the kettle without water, the thermostat will, after reaching a certain temperature, interrupt the electric circuit. The ON/OFF switch will return to the raised “OFF” position and the backlight will turn off. The kettle can be used again after several minutes, once the heating bottom has cooled down.
  Attention:
  Even though the kettle is equipped with protection against boiling without water, do not turn it on when empty. The incorrect use of the kettle may negatively affect its working order and lifetime.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning:
Prior to any cleaning or maintenance, always
disconnect the base stand from the power socket and allow the kettle to cool down.
NEVER wash the kettle, its base stand or power cord under running water and do not submerge them in water or another liquid.
Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaning products, etc. for cleaning the electric kettle or its base stand. Otherwise, its surface may be damaged.

• To clean the external parts of the kettle, use a dry cloth or a cloth dipped in a weak solution of neutral kitchen detergent. After washing it, wipe the surface with a lightly damp cloth and then wipe dry.
• Wipe the internal parts of the kettle using a soft sponge or clean cloth dipped in clean warm water. Do not use detergents or any other chemical agents on the internal parts. After cleaning the kettle, rinse it out several times with clean water.
• To clean the base stand, use only a dry cloth.

Removing limescale deposits

• During normal use, substances contained in water accumulate on the appliance to form so-called limescale deposits. These may negatively affect the lifetime of the kettle and ruin the taste and appearance of your beverage, so it is important to regularly remove them based on how frequently the kettle is used.

• When using the kettle at a frequency of 3 to 5 times per day, we recommend to remove water scale deposits:
  – once per month in areas with hard and very hard water;
  – once every two to three months in areas with soft and medium hard water.

• Limescale deposits can be cleaned away using standard available limescale removal products (according to the manufacturer’s instructions) or use:
  – 8% white vinegar, generally available in stores. Fill the kettle with 1 litre of water and ¼ litre of vinegar. Bring the solution to a boil and leave it to act in the kettle for 2 hours. Then empty the kettle and before further use, boil clean water in it four to five times.
  – citric acid. Boil 1 l of water in the kettle, into the boiled water, add 30 g of citric acid and allow the solution to act for about 30 minutes. Then empty the kettle and before further use, boil clean water in it four to five times.

STORAGE

• When you have finished using the kettle and and have cleaned it, place it and its base stand in a clean, dry place out of children’s reach. Keep the stored kettle and its base stand away from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight and excessive humidity and do not store it in an overly dusty environment.
