Boil-dry protection
A boil-dry protection feature protects the device from damage. The protection switches
on automatically when there is no more liquid in the kettle.
The boil-dry protection is
purely a safety feature. It does not serve to increase the ease of use.
If the boil-dry protection has been triggered:
1. Unplug the power cord from the mains outlet.
2. Let the kettle cool down.
You can then fill the kettle with water again and use it as usual.
Cleaning and descaling
DANGER of scalding/burning
−
Always allow the kettle to cool down completely before cleaning.
−
Keep yourself and other persons away from escaping water vapour!
− Close the lid before switching on the kettle.
−
Never open the lid when pouring out hot water.
− Note that there is still residual heat inside the kettle after use.
NOTE on material damage
− Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, brushes with metal or nylon
bristles, or sharp or metallic cleaning objects such as knives, hard
spatulas and the like. They can damage the surfaces.
− Never put the water tank or the base in the dishwasher. You would
destroy the kettle by doing so.
−
Never immerse the kettle in water for cleaning and do not use a steam
cleaner for cleaning. The kettle may otherwise be damaged.
Cleaning
1. Unplug the kettle from the mains and let it cool down.
2. Wipe the outside of the housing with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
3. Open the lid of the water tank.
4. Clean the holes of the spout with a dishwashing brush or similar.
5. Rinse the water tank with a little water.
Descaling
You should descale the kettle regularly, as a heavily calcified kettle requires more
electricity.
How often the device needs to be descaled depends on the hardness of the water used
and the frequency of use.
