WARNING

Danger of scalding due to hot casing and water vapour escaping. Only hold the kettle by the handle when in operation, and do not open the lid when pouring out.
Always completely empty the pot. Do not let any residual water remain in the device for a long period of time.
The mains plug is to be pulled:
→ if malfunctions occur during use,
→ before cleaning and care,
→ after use.

USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

A few additional information before use:

→ A stainless-steel strainer insert in the pour spout ensures that larger limescale particles are kept back when pouring, to keep the water clear and optimize the taste of your hot beverage.
→ Any surplus length of the connecting cable can be wound at the bottom of the base part.

Before using your WMF MASTER Water Kettle for the ﬁrst time, we recommend thoroughly cleaning the inside (see “Cleaning and care” chapter).

Connect the mains plug to an earthed socket.
Add the desired amount of water (min. 200 ml, max. 1,200 ml).
WARNING:
If the kettle is not ﬁlled with enough water, the overheating protection automatically deactivates the heating elements. The display shows “—”. In this case, allow the appliance to cool down before using it again. Too much water may cause hot water to boil over, which can cause serious injuries or burns.
Place the kettle (6) on the base (7) in any position.
Press the On/off button (8). The LED light ring (11) around the rotary knob (9) is lighting up, and the LED screen (10) displays the last used temperature.
Select the desired temperature by turning the knob (9) and click on it to conﬁrm and start the heating process. The symbol “heating” (13) blinks to signify that the temperature is not reached yet. Once it is reached, the symbol stays lit.

NOTE
Do not use the water from the ﬁrst boiling process for food preparation.

Temperatures for different types of tea
Thanks to its wide range of selectable temperatures, the WMF MASTER kettle gives you the option to heat water to match your favourite hot beverage or hot water consumption:

Temperature Type of tea

5.1| KEEP WARM FUNCTION

For extra convenience, this function keeps the water at the selected temperature for up to 30 minutes after heating.
As soon as the water reaches the desired temperature, the keep warm time starts automatically.
To activate or deactivate the keep warm function, press the rotary knob (9) for over 3 seconds The corresponding symbol (12) is on when the mode is activated, and out when not.
The function is currently running, when the keep warm symbol is on and the boiled water symbol light is continuous.

5.2| SOUND SETTINGS
Double click on the rotary knob (9) to reach the setting mode. The settings symbol (14) will appear on the display (10), with a certain level of sound volume (by default L3). Turn the rotary knob (9) to set the volume higher or lower and press it to conﬁrm.

5.3| TEMPERATURE UNIT SETTING
Double click on the rotary knob (9) to reach the setting mode, then once again to reach the temperature unit setting mode. Choose between °F and °C with the rotary knob (9) and press to conﬁrm.

CLEANING AND CARE

After use, remove the mains plug and allow the device to cool down. Do not immerse the device in water, but rather clean them with a damp cloth with a little washing-up ﬂuid and then dry off.
Do not use any sharp and abrasive cleaning agents.
The pot (6) is made of stainless steel. Should rust spots nevertheless appear, they are only deposits adhered to the surface. They should be removed immediately with a stainless steel cleanser.
The strainer insert (3) in the pour spout can be removed for cleaning when the lid is open. To do so, press its upper clip upward. When inserting, place the strainer (3) in the middle of the base and then snap it forward into place.

Descaling

Please descale your appliance regularly using a high-quality commercial descaling agent. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions, particularly with regard to the subsequent cleaning with clear water, which is essential! Suitable descaling agents contain inhibitors that protect appliances against damage to seals and surfaces, do not cause additional deposits and have no taste. Do not use descaling agents that are unsuitable for your appliance (such as substances based purely on vinegar or citric acid). Our warranty does not cover damage caused by using unsuitable descaling agents or failure to follow the descaling instructions. Please keep descaling agents out of reach of children and make sure you do not inhale any of the steam given off during descaling.

CAUSES FOR MALFUNCTIONS

If the pouring behaviour worsens/ diminishes:
Check the strainer (3) and descale/clean the strainer if necessary.

Device switches off before boiling:
Bottom of the pot is too strongly calciﬁed; it is not ﬁlled with enough water.

Device does not switch off:
Lid (1) is not closed.

Device will not switch on:
The device has not sufﬁciently cooled down following operation with no or too little water.
Before any further usage, the kettle must be taken from the base (7) and put back on again.

If it is not possible to ﬁx this problem, submit the device for repair.
