GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not operate or store the appliance in humid or wet areas or outdoors. This appliance is NOT intended for use in boats or moving vehicles. Do not use any accessories, attachments, or spare parts not recommended by the manufacturer. Damaged or unsuited parts could cause cracks, distortions, or leakage of hot water. Do not operate the appliance when the appliance or any part of it is likely to be damaged to avoid the risk of fire, overflow, heat, electric shock, or any other damage and/or injuries to persons.
Check the water kettle regularly for any leakage. However, due to condensation, small amounts of moisture on the base may occur. This is normal. Regularly check the power base and power cord for proper operation. The pins of the plug and connectors in the middle of the power base and at the bottom of the kettle must be smooth and clean without any discoloration. Do not operate the appliance when any part of it is likely to be damaged or is not working properly.
Return the appliance to an authorized service center for examination and repair, if the appliance is not operating properly or overheating, or was subject to inadmissible strain (e.g. overheating, mechanical or electric shock, moisture in the electrical connectors). Unplug the appliance immediately, when a severe problem occurs during operation (e.g. water overflowing, overheating). Do not attempt to open or repair the appliance on your own.
Operate the appliance on a well accessible, heat resistant, water-resistant, stable, level, dry and suitable large table or counter. Do not place the appliance on inclined surfaces, where it can tilt, overflow, or fall. Ensure that the base will stand stable, before placing the kettle on it and operating the appliance beneath or below any heat-sensitive or moisture-sensitive materials, steam, heat, or condensate. During operation keep the appliance at an appropriate distance of at least 20 cm on each side.
Do not place any clothes or tissues or other objects under the appliance during operation, to avoid the risk of fire, electric shock, and overheating. Do not place the appliance near the edge of the table or counter.
Do not place the appliance or any part of it on or near hot surfaces (e.g. burner, heater, range, or oven). The appliance is heated by built-in electric heating elements. Do not place any part of the appliance (e.g. power base or kettle) on a hot oven or range.
Do not leave the appliance unattended when connected to the power supply. Always unplug the appliance when it is not in use, and before moving or cleaning the appliance. Always leave the appliance to cool down before cleaning. Always ensure that the kettle is filled correctly and the exterior and the electric connectors of the kettle and power base are dry and clean, before placing the kettle onto the power base.
Do not overfill the kettle. Always observe the MAX filling mark in the interior of the kettle. Otherwise, hot water could splash and overflow, causing severe scalds. Always remove the kettle from the power base and remove the lid when filling the kettle. Do not preheat the kettle while it is still empty. Always ensure that there are at least 0.5 liters of water in the kettle before operation. Only use the appliance for heating clear water. Do not add any food or food additives. Do not fill with milk or any other beverages into the kettle. Do not place any foreign objects into the kettle. There is no warranty claim of the purchaser if the damaged or defect of the appliance is caused by inappropriate treatment.
The lid can be opened easily by pressing the lid opening button. Do not force the lid open. Always close the lid before starting operations.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning pads for cleaning the appliance or any part of it. DO not clean the appliance with any chemicals (e.g. bleach). Do not use any hard or sharp-edged objects for operation or cleaning.
DO NOT place the appliance or power cord in an automatic dishwasher.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
Carefully read all instructions before opening the appliance and save them for future reference.
Place the appliance near a suitable wall power socket and connect the appliance directly to a protected mains power supply with a protective conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. For this, always unwind the power cord completely. Do not use an extension cord or multi-socket outlet. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (220-240V, 50/60Hz, AC, rated for at least 10A).
The power outlet socket must be installed separately to avoid interference with other appliances.
Do not let the plug or power cord hang over the edge of the table or counter. Ensure that no one will pull the appliance by the power cord or entangle in the power cord. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the power cord. Do not touch the power plug or appliance with wet hands while the appliance is connected to the mains power supply.
Always unplug the appliance and remove the kettle before moving or cleaning the power base. Do not leave the power base unattended when it is connected to the power supply.
The power cord may not touch hot surfaces or sharp edges. Do not place the appliance on a power cord. If the power cord is obviously damaged and/ or gets hot during operation, replace the power cord completely. DO NOT attempt to repair any power cord. To avoid the risk of electric shock: Always immediately wipe dry spilled liquids and condensate. Do not place or immerse the kettle, power base, or power cord in water or any other liquid. DO not spill or drip any liquids on the power cord or exterior of the appliance.
DO NOT place the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
HIGH TEMPERATURES–RISK OF BURNS
Do not overfill the kettle ( MAX 1.5L).
Always keep the lid closed during operation. Hot steam may escape from the lid and spout. Do not hold your hands, arms, and/or face over the appliance during operation to avoid scalds.
Hot water could cause severe burns! Do not leave the appliance unattended, when it is in reach of young children, especially when the water within the kettle is hot!
When heating water to a preselected temperature, due to residual heat of the heating plate the water temperature could still rise even after the kettle automatically switches off. When heating water for immediate consumption or for preparing baby food, always ensure that the water has the desired temperature.
To avoid the build-up of pressure during heating, the lid of the kettle is not watertight. When moving the filled kettle, ensure to keep the kettle upright, level position to avoid injuries and damage due to spilled hot water.
Always leave the kettle to cool down before cleaning.
