IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using your kettle, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

  1. Read all instructions carefully, even if you are familiar with the appliance.
  2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
  3. Before connecting the kettle, check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds with the mains voltage in your home. If this is not the case, contact your dealer and do not use the kettle.
  4. Switch off and unplug from the outlet before filling, emptying, or cleaning, or when not in use.
  5. Do not overfill as boiling water may be ejected. The maximum level is marked on the kettle.
  6. Do not operate or place any part of this appliance on or near any hot surface (such as gas or electric burner or in a heated oven).
  7. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces.
  8. Never yank on the cord as this may damage the cord and eventually cause a risk of electric shock.
  9. If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, because special purpose tools are required.
  10. Avoid touching hot kettle surfaces – use the handle and the knobs.
  11. To avoid possible steam damage, turn the spout away from walls or cabinets when operating the kettle.
  12. If operated on wood furniture, use a protective pad to prevent damage to delicate finishes.
  13. To avoid scalding, always ensure the lid is correctly positioned before operating.
  14. Scalding may occur if the lid is removed whilst heating.
  15. Extreme caution must be used when moving the kettle containing hot water. Never lift the kettle by its lid. Always use the body handle.

  17. To protect from electrical hazards, do not immerse this kettle or cordset in any liquid.
  18. Use the kettle only with the supplied base unit. Do not use the base unit for other purposes.
  19. To protect against fire, do not operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
  20. A kettle should not be left connected to a wall socket when the room temperature is likely to fall to outdoor winter temperatures. At sub-zero temperatures, the automatic control thermostat may reset to boil and energize the element.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

  1. Before first use, fill the kettle with clean water to maximum capacity and boil. Discard the water and repeat.

  2. The kettle should always be unplugged when filling or adding water.

  3. Fill the kettle with water to the desired level. Do not overfill or there will be a risk of spillage or spitting. Do not forget to close the lid after filling, otherwise, the kettle will
    not automatically switch off after use.

  4. Do not fill with less than 0.5 liters of water (up to „MIN“ indication) to prevent the kettle from running dry while operating.

  5. Do not fill with more than 1.2 liters of water (up to „MAX“ indication).

  6. An automatic safety cut-out has been fitted for protection against overheating. It will operate if the kettle is switched on when containing insufficient water. Always ensure that the water inside the kettle covers the minimum mark. If the automatic safety cut-out has operated, disconnect from the power outlet and allow the kettle to cool down for 5 to 10 minutes. Then refill with water and switch on – the kettle will then boil and cut off as in normal operation.

  7. Place the power base on a dry flat surface.

  9. Plug the cord set into an earthed power socket.

  10. The appliance is switched on by pressing the ON/OFF switch. The pilot light will come on

  11. When the water has boiled, the kettle will switch off automatically.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR KETTLE

Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth or sponge. Remove stubborn spots with a cloth moistened with mild liquid detergent.
Do not use abrasive scouring pads or powders. Never immerse the kettle in water or other liquids.
From time to time depending on the nature of your water supply, a limescale deposit is naturally formed and can be found mostly adhered to the heating element and reduces
the heating capacity. The amount of limescale deposited (and subsequently the need to clean or descale) largely depends on the water hardness in your area and the frequency with which the kettle is used.
Limescale is not harmful to your health. But if poured into your beverage, it can give a powdery taste to your drink. Therefore, the kettle should be descaled periodically as  indicated below:

DESCALING

Descale the kettle regularly. With normal use, at least twice a year.

  1. Fill the kettle up to „MAX“ with a mixture of one part ordinary vinegar and two parts water. Switch on and wait for the appliance to switch off automatically.
  2. Let the mixture remain inside the kettle overnight.
  3. Throw the mixture away the next morning.
  4. Fill the kettle with clean water up to „MAX“ and boil again.
  5. Throw away this boiled water to remove any remaining scale and vinegar.
  6. Rinse the inside of the kettle with clean water.

360° CONNECTOR BASE
The 360° connector between the kettle and its base means that the kettle can be located at any point on the base. This is ideal for left and righthanded users as the kettle can be positioned conveniently on your kitchen counter.
