CAUTION: To prevent damage to the appliance do not use alkaline cleaning agents when cleaning, use a soft damp cloth and a mild detergent.

DANGER due to electricity

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard or the product must be disposed of.
For electrical safety, the power base, plug, and main cord must not come into contact with water or other liquids. You should, therefore, for example, not place the kettle near a sink.
Do not use the kettle outdoors.
The appliance should never be immersed in water or other liquids. Water must not be allowed to come in contact with electric parts from underneath.
Do not use the appliance when your hands are wet.
The kettle must only be connected to a properly installed and earthed wall socket with a mains voltage that matches the “Technical specifications” of the kettle.
Use of extension cords is not recommended.
Keep the appliance and the power cord away from sources of heat such as cooking plates or open gas flames. This could cause melting.
Keep the main power cord away from sharp work surfaces or edges to prevent damage to the cord.
Unplug the kettle from mains power,
– if an abnormality occurs during use,
– if you are not going to use it for a prolonged period,
– during thunderstorms and
– before cleaning it.
When unplugging the appliance from the power socket, always pull from the plug, not the main cord.
Do not use if the kettle, base, or power cord shows any visible signs of damage.
Do not make any modifications to the appliance and its mains cord or change the connection cable yourself.

Warning – the risk of burns/scalding

Always place the water kettle on a solid and even surface. Ensure that it cannot slip or be dropped and that the power cord does not hang down.
The kettle becomes hot while in use. Do not move the kettle during operation and do not pull on the main cord. Only hold/lift the hot kettle by the handle.
Contact with rising steam can cause scalding! Make sure the lid is always firmly closed and do not open it while water is boiling or while pouring water out.
Do not fill the container with less than (0.5L) or more than (1.7L) of water. If there is not enough water in the kettle, the appliance may overheat.
Be sure that the kettle is switched OFF before taking it off the power base.
The kettle is only to be used with the stand provided.
If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected.
The heating element and surfaces are subject to residual heat after use.
WARNING! Avoid water spillage on the electrical connectors.
WARNING! Potential injury from misuse.
WARNING! Do not remove the lid while the water is boiling.

IMPORTANT!

Steam escaping from the appliance can damage wallpaper, overhead wall cabinets or other items. Turn the spout away to prevent steam damage.
Do not use caustic, aggressive or abrasive cleaning products for cleaning.
Keep hard items away from the appliance.
Although the kettle is protected from boiling dry, it must never be operated without water.
If the overheat cut-out switch switches OFF the kettle to prevent overheating and boiling dry, proceed as follows:
– Remove the kettle from the base.
– Allow the kettle to cool down for at least 15 minutes before refilling it with tap water.
– Place the kettle back on the power base and switch it ON.
Only use the kettle with the power base provided.
Furniture today is often coated with a wide range of varnishes and plastics and is treated with various protective substances. Some of these products may contain substances that react adversely with the rubber feet on the power base, soften them, and cause staining on the surface. Therefore, we recommend placing a non-slip mat under the rubber feet of the kettle.

OPERATION

Unpacking
DANGER to children- danger to life due to suffocation/swallowing Keep the packing material out of children’s reach. Dispose of it immediately.

Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and check that no parts are missing or possibly damaged.
Remove all packaging material.
First-time use
IMPORTANT! DO NOT fill the kettle more than the max (1.7L) mark on the kettle. Filling above the max. mark will cause over-boil and spillage out of the spout.
To ensure a long service life of the water kettle, proceed as follows before using it for the first time:
1. Fill the kettle with water and add vinegar in a ratio of 1:3 (1 part vinegar / 3 parts water).
  NOTE: Prepare the mixture in a separate container and then pour it into the kettle up to the Min (0.5L) water level mark. Do not fill too much above the Min. water level mark to prevent overflow when boiling the mixture.
2. Bring to a boil (see Heating water), then pour away.
3. Allow the kettle to cool down and then refill it with fresh water, boil the water, and then pour it away. The kettle is now ready for use.

To avoid scale deposits, descale the water kettle at regular intervals (after about every 15th use) as described in the section “Descaling”.

Connecting with Wi-Fi router

If the kettle is powered on for the first time, WiFi key light will flash to remind the user to connect to the network. If the light flashes quickly, the appliance is in config mode. If the light flashes slowly, hold the WiFi key for more than 3 seconds and the kettle will ‘beep’ once, the light will turn to flash quickly, and the appliance will revert to config mode.
In the process of connecting the appliance to the Wi-Fi router, the light on the Wi-Fi button will go out for a few seconds. When the process has ended, the buzzer will sound once and the Wi-Fi button will light up for 5 seconds. The appliance is now successfully connected to the Wi-Fi router.
After the kettle has successfully connected to the network once, it is not necessary to reconfigure the connection when powered ON again. The kettle will be automatically connected to the network.
If the appliance has connected with the Wi-Fi router, you can control the kettle and see the status through your mobile phone from anywhere with a network connection.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

DANGER– Risk of electric shock

Remove the supply cord plug from the mains power outlet socket before cleaning the kettle.
The power base, plug, and main cord must not come into contact with water or other liquids.
The kettle body must not be immersed in water.
The kettle, power base, 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

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

Descaling
The kettle must be descaled at regular intervals, especially if the base on 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 three-to-one (3:1) solution of water and vinegar or citric acid to descale the kettle.
IMPORTANT! prepare the mixture in a separate container and then pour it into the kettle up to the Min (0.5L) water level mark. Do not fill too much above the Min. water level mark to prevent overflow from the spout when boiling the mixture.

Let the solution soak in the kettle for about an hour, and then bring it to a boil.
Thoroughly rinse out the kettle with fresh water.
Alternatively, you may use a commercially available kettle cleaning solution. Please follow the instructions provided with the cleaning solution.
