OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the kettle from the base and fill it with cold water. Do not exceed
the
maximum level
(Fig. 1)! If the water level in the kettle does not
reach the recommended minimum, the kettle will overheat and turn off
prematurely.
Note:
Make sure that the lid is closed properly. The kettle cannot turn off
automatically if this is not the case.
2. Return the kettle to the base. The electric contacts will be connected
automatically. The design of the centre connector allows you to
turn the
kettle 360°
. The kettle can be put on the base from any side.
3. Connect the base to the mains.
4. Turn the kettle on by pushing the switch.
Operation is signalled by the operating light. The kettle lid should be closed
properly when heating water.
5. After the boiling point has been reached, the kettle will turn off
automatically, and the operating light will go out. Water heating can be
terminated prematurely by moving the switch to the off position.
6. Remove the kettle from the base and use the water.
7. If you want to reheat the water you have just finished boiling, wait
approximately for 30 seconds before reactivating the switch.
8. Any impurities are caught by the filter while pouring.
Note:
If a few drops of water appear at the base after use, this is not a defect. It is
a small amount of condensed steam, which deactivates the kettle thermostat.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Before cleaning the unit, always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet!
Prior to handling, make sure the unit has cooled down!
The surface of the unit may only be cleaned using a wet cloth. Do not use any detergents or hard objects, as they
may damage the unit’s surface!
Never clean the unit under running water, do not rinse it, and do not submerge it in water!
REMOVING LIMESCALE
Impurities from water build up during normal use. These sediments can be removed from the kettle perfectly
using preparations designed for removing limescale (observe the producer’s instructions) or using the following
procedure:
1. Pour three cups of vinegar into the kettle, and fill it with water. Leave the solution in the kettle overnight.
Do not
boil!
2. Pour out the contents, and clean the remaining sediment using a wet cloth. Fill the kettle with clean water, boil
it and pour it out again. Repeat the procedure. The kettle is then ready for operation.
CAUTION
Prior to first use, we recommend boiling the maximum volume of water in the kettle at least 3 times, then pouring it
out. The kettle is then ready for operation.
The kettle may only be used with the supplied base.
