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.
- The power base, plug and mains cord must not come into contact with water or other liquids. This could result in electric shock. You should therefore, for example, not place the kettle near a sink. Do not use the kettle outdoors exposed to weather.
- The appliance never be immersed in water or other liquids. Water must not be allowed to come into contact with the 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 appliance.
- Use of extension cords is not recommended.
- Never leave the appliance unattended while in use.
- Keep the appliance and mains cord away from sources of heat such as cooking plates or open gas flames. This could cause melting.
- Keep the mains power cord away from sharp work surface 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 doing so, always pull from the plug, not the mains cord. - Do not use the appliance if the kettle, base or mains cord show any visible sign of damage.
- Do not make any modifications to the appliance and its mains cord or change the connection cable yourself.
Warning – 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 mains cord. Only hold/lift the hot kettle by its 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 (0.5 litres) or more than (1.7 litres) 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 power base provided.
- If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water maybe ejected.
- The heating element and surfaces are subject to residual heat after use.
* WARNING - Avoid water spillage on the electrical connectors.*

* WARNING - Do not remove the lid while the water is boiling.
IMPORTANT!
- Take care that any steam escaping from the appliance cannot damage wall paper, wall cabinets or other items. Turn the spout away from furniture and walls.
- 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:
– Take the kettle from the base.
– Allow the kettle to cool down for at least 15 minutes before refilling it with water and replacing the kettle back on the power base. - Only use the kettle with the power stand 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.

First time use
IMPORTANT! during the below process DO NOT fill the kettle more than the min
(0.5L) mark on the kettle. Filling above the min. 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: Mix the solution in a separate bowl or container and then fill the
kettle up to the Min. (0.5L) mark.
2. Bring to a boil (see Boiling water), then pour away.
3. 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
WARNING: Risk of scalding from hot water
-
The kettle and its lid become hot while in use. Do not touch them.
-
The lid must be tightly closed during the boiling process. It must not be opened while pouring out water. Allow the appliance cool down before opening the lid.
-
Do not fill the water container with less than MIN. (0.5L) or more than MAX. (1.7L) of water.
1. Press the lid release trigger. The lid opens automatically.
2. Fill the kettle with the amount of water required. You can check the filling level on the indicator.- Lid release trigger
3. Press the front of the lid down firmly to close it.
Make sure that the lid is closed properly, otherwise the water kettle may not
switch OFF after boiling.
4. Fully unwind the power cord and run it through the cable guide channel on
the power base.
5. Plug the mains cable into an earthed socket that is within easy reach.
6. Place the kettle on the power base.
7. Set the On/Off switch to On (I).
The control white lamp will light up to indicate that the kettle is ON. When
the water is boiling, the kettle switches OFF automatically and the control
white lamp will go out.
- ON/OFF
8. If you wish to stop heating the water before it boils, set the On/Off
switch to Off (0).
WARNING: Risk of scalding from hot water
- Be sure that the water kettle is switched OFF before taking it off the power base.
9. 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.
10. 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
- 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 slightly 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
IMPORTANT! during the below process DO NOT fill the kettle more than the min
(0.5L) mark on the kettle. Filling above the min. mark will cause over boil
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: Mix the solution in a separate bowl or container and then fill the
kettle up to the Min. (0.5L) mark.
- Let the solution soak in the kettle for about an hour, and then bring it to the boil.
- 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.
