IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES
Make sure that the water level is between the
X
minimum and maximum level before turning the
kettle on. Do not overfill the kettle; otherwise it
can overflow while boiling. Please, remember
that the minimum water level should be higher
than the minimum allowed level.
Do not touch the hot surfaces of the appliance.
X
Do not touch the outer surfaces of the kettle with
the exception of the heat insulated handle, when water is boiling
or with hot water inside the device.
Allow kettle to cool prior to cleaning and storing.
X
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply before stor-
X
age, filling it with water/emptying it or moving it from one place
to another.
The appliance should always be placed on and used on a heat
X
resistant, horizontal and dry surface.
To avoid being burnt by hot vapor always close the lid tightly
X
before use. Avoid exposure to hot vapor.
WARNING! Never
open the lid immediately before or after boiling tem-
perature is reached
.
The kettle is protected against overheating and if switched on
X
without water, an automatic safety cut out device will switch it
off. If the safety device is activated, allow the kettle to cool down
prior to boiling water in it. The kettle will not switch on if it’s too
hot.
WARNING! Frequent switching the kettle on with-
out water might result in the safety device failure, that
is why prior to switching the kettle on always check the
water level. Always make sure the water level in the
kettle is not too low.
Always switch the kettle off prior to lifting it from the base.
X
Use the kettle only with the supplied base.
X
Do not fill a hot kettle with cold water or vice versa.
X WARNING!
Avoid sharp temperature fluctuations when filling the
kettle with water.
Connect the device only to an electrical supply with a protective
X
earthing. If your socket has no protective earthing, contact a
qualified specialist. Do not modify the plug and do not use cord
adapters.
WARNING! Electric shocks might occur if the
kettle is plugged into an unearthed power supply.
Clean the heating element of the kettle often to de-scale it.
X
Remember that use of a heavily scaled kettle might result in its
malfunction.
WARNING! De-scale the kettle using only
specially designed cleaning agents.
Before turning the kettle on, make sure that the lid is closed;
X
otherwise the kettle will not turn off after boiling.
After use of the appliance, the base of the kettle might be wet. It is
X
a normal condition of operation, caused by escaping steam, used
to activate the kettle’s automatic turning off function.
Do not tilt the filled kettle backwards, since water can spill through
X
the steam vent. If this happens, the kettle should be wiped before
turning it on.
Do not take the electric cord out of the socket during operation of
X
the appliance. You should first turn it off.
