4. Plug to AC outlet with the voltage corresponded to the information on the product label.
5. Switch the kettle on by the ON button. The indicator light will go on showing that the
water is being boiled.
6. When the water has boiled, the kettle will switch off automatically.

It will also operate if the kettle is switched on when containing insufficient water. Always
ensure the water inside the kettle covers the minimum mark 0.2 l on the water level
indicator gauge.
ATTENTION
– When heating water, the lid must be closed, otherwise the kettle will not turn OFF.
– In bigger tilting of the electric kettle backwards, particularly when it is filled up to
maximum, water can flow out from the electric kettle in the bottom part of the kettle.
This does not affect safety or other functions and it does not mean any failure of the
electric kettle. In the case of tilting the electric kettle with hot water there is a risk
of scalding. Therefore do not tilt the electric kettle.
IV. MAINTENANCE
Unplug the appliance from power supply by taking the fork of the power cord
out of the socket! Clean the kettle only when it is cooled down! Do not use rough
and aggressive detergents (e.g. sharp objects, scrapers, diluting agents or other
solvents)!
The casing of the electric kettle is made of top-quality plastic material and the
heating bottom is made of top-quality stainless steel, but in common use, impurities from
water get stuck on them (water scale), particularly above the heating element.
It is not rust
or another material defect of the kettle container and the appliance is not subject to
a complaint for this reason.
Cleaning the kettle
In the hard water area, it is important to do the decalcification regularly to keep the kettle in
good working condition, because too much scale inside may cause the kettle fail to work.
For the best performance of your kettle, decalcify the unit from time to time. The frequency
depends on the hardness of your tap water and how many times you have used the kettle.
Decalcification will clean the interior of the unit.
This may be done in the following manner:
Put about 50 g of citric acid into the kettle with limescale sediment. Fill the kettle half with
water and stir. After dissolving, fill it up to ¾ of maximum amount of water. Torn on the kettle.
Turn off the kettle before reaching boiling point, let the solution work for 10 minutes and then
pour it out. Rinse the kettle thoroughly with clean water. In case of very thick sediments, you
can repeat the process. Clean the kettle regularly!
