Using the kettle

Before you use the kettle, satisfy 
yourself that...
– the kettle, plug and power cable are

in good working order...

– and all packaging material has been

removed from the kettle. 

Fill the kettle with water to the MAX
mark and let it come to a boil once as
described in the next number. Then 
pour off this water. 

Boiling water 

Danger: Never place the electrical 
base near water – life-threatening
danger!

Only boil as much water as you need.
This saves electricity, water and time. 
• Remove the can to fill it. 
• Open the lid by pressing the release

button.

• Hold the can vertically when filling it

to ensure that the level display on the
side properly indicates the water level.
Fill the can...

– at least to the level of 0.5 L to ensure

that the kettle does not overheat,

– no more than to the MAX mark to 

ensure that boiling water does not
spill over. 

• Close the lid...
• and place the can on the base until it

is set on its base completely straight.

• Now put the plug into the socket...
• and press the ON/OFF switch down-

ward until it locks into place.

• A lamp in the level display indicates

that the kettle is now heating up.

• The kettle switches it self off when

the water is boiling properly. The
ON/OFF switch pops out again and
the lamp goes out.

• In order to 

interrupt heating

, push

the 

ON/OFF switch up

again (the

lamp also goes out in this case).

Warning: Please pull the plug out 
of the socket before you lift the can
from the base. 

This prevents water

from spilling onto the electrical con-
nections in the base and causing a
short-circuit.

For safety reasons and to avoid injuries
do not open the lid when the water is
boiling or very hot. 

Cleaning and Care

Danger:

Never open any of the 

device parts. No operating elements 
are located inside the device. An open
housing can create the risk of a life-
threatening electrical shock. Never sub-
merse any parts of the device in water 
or other liquids! This can create the risk
of a life-threatening electrical shock if
residual liquid comes into contact with
powered components.

Before cleaning the kettle, ....

• pull the plug out of the socket and 

let the kettle cool off.

• Clean all exterior surfaces and the 

power cable with a slightly moist 
rinsing cloth. Dry the kettle off 
every time before using it again.
