Parts and operating controls

1 Kettle (with water level indicator)
2 Lid
3 Lid release button
4 ON/OFF switch
5 Temperature indicator (illuminated)
6 + – button (temperature setting)
7 keep warm button
8 Limescale filter (removable)
9 Base
10 Cable tidy

Important: Use the kettle only with its included base.

■ Only fill the kettle with water. Milk and instant beverages will burn and damage the appliance. Never operate the kettle without water and do not overfill it; observe the min and max markings. If the kettle is too full, the water will boil over!

Before using for the first time

■ Remove any stickers or film.
■ Unroll the right amount of cable from the cable tidy and plug it in.
■ Fill the kettle with water. Bring the water to a boil and discard it. Repeat the procedure. This will make sure that the kettle is clean for normal use.
■ When the water comes to a boil for the first time, add a tablespoon of white vinegar.

Boiling water

■ Fill the kettle with fresh water through the spout or the open lid (press lid release button).
■ Check the amount by reading the water level indicator markings min and max.
■ Close the lid until it locks and place the kettle on the base.
■ Press the ON/OFF switch. The kettle emits a signal, and the factory-set temperature (100°C) lights up. The water is being heated.
■ By pressing button + or – you can set the temperature to ca. 70°C, ca. 80°C, ca. 90°C or ca. 100°C.
■ When the water has reached the selected temperature, the kettle will switch off automatically, the temperature indicator goes off, and a signal sounds.

Note: The selected temperature can be changed at any time while the kettle is heating up. While the kettle heats up, the current temperature lights up; the preset temperature flashes until it has been reached.
If the temperature cannot be set, this indicates that the water in the kettle is hotter than the desired temperature. The current temperature will light up.
You can turn off the kettle at any time by pressing the ON/OFF switch again.

Warning: If you remove the kettle from the base and replace it before the heating process is over, the kettle will not continue to heat the water. The selected settings will be lost (reset to factory setting).

N.B.: Use the kettle only while the lid is closed and the limescale filter is in place. For physical reasons, the base may collect some condensation water. This is normal; it does not mean that the kettle leaks.
When you set the temperature to 100°C, the kettle will turn off only after the water has reached the boiling point, i.e. it will bubble for a short period of time.
After boiling, let the kettle cool down for 5 minutes before refilling it with water.
Do not turn on the appliance if the kettle is empty, otherwise the overheat control will engage and the appliance will switch itself off automatically.

Keep warm setting

You can turn on the keep warm with any temperature setting.
Press button keep warm. keep warm lights up, and the function is activated.
To turn it off, press button keep warm again. The keep warm indicator goes off.

Note: The keep warm feature switches off automatically after 30 minutes. The kettle emits a signal.

Cleaning and maintenance

Risk of electric shock!
Never immerse the device in water or place it in the dishwasher!
Do not steam-clean the appliance.

■ Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the power outlet.
■ Clean the outside of the kettle and base with a damp cloth. Do not use strong or abrasive cleaning agents.
■ Remove the limescale filter, soak it in a little vinegar, then rinse clean with clear water.
■ Rinse the kettle and the limescale filter with clear water.

Tip: Clean the stainless steel surface with a commercial stainless steel care product.

Descaling

Regular descaling
■ makes your kettle last longer;
■ ensures proper function;
■ saves energy.

Descale the kettle with vinegar or a commercial descaling agent.
■ Fill the kettle with water up to the 1.5 mark and bring to a boil. Next, add a small amount of white vinegar and let it sit for several hours. You can also use a commercial descaling product and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
■ Rinse the kettle and the limescale filter with clear water.

Warning: Never use hard objects to remove limescale residue as this will damage the seal.

Tip: If you use the kettle daily, descale more frequently.

Troubleshooting

The kettle does not heat up; the temperature indicator does not light up.
– The overheat control has tripped.
■ Let the kettle cool down for some time so that the appliance can be switched on again.

The unit turns off before the water comes to a boil.
– The kettle contains too much scale.
