BEFORE FIRST USE
WARNING:
DO NOT let young children play with the appliance, or any part
of it, or the packaging!
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it, and when
it is not in use. Do not place or immerse the appliance (base and kettle) or power
cord in water or other liquids or spill any liquids on the base, power cord, or the
exterior of the kettle. For operation, always unwind the power cord completely to
avoid hazard due to overheating, fire, and electric shock. Do not use any abrasive
or corrosive cleaners for cleaning to avoid damage to the surfaces.
Do not place the
appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
1. Unpack the appliance and all parts and accessories carefully. Check that no
parts are damaged or missing (see: ‘Knowing Your New Water Kettle’). Careful-
ly remove all packaging, shipping materials, stickers, and promotional materials.
However, DO NOT remove the model label.
2. Before first use and after a longer period of storage, clean all parts of the appli-
ance (see: ‘Care and Cleaning’). Press the opening button to open the lid. The-
reafter rinse the interior of the kettle thoroughly with clear tap water.
3. Select a suitable place for operating the appliance near a sufficient wall power
outlet, leaving a distance of at least 20 cm to the edge of the table or counter
and to any other object (see: ‘General Safety Instructions’).
4. Fill the kettle with 1.5 litres of clear drinking water and bring the water to the boil
by pressing the ON/OFF button (see: ‘Operation’). Thereafter discard the water.
5. Repeat the recent step.
6. Then rinse the kettle with clear tap water. The appliance is now ready for use.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Always ensure that the appliance and all its parts and accessories
are
out of reach of young children.
The appliance is intended for heating clear drin-
king water via electrically powered heating elements. Do not attempt to heat the kettle
by any other source of heat. Do not fill in any other beverages, food, or any foreign
liquids for operation to avoid injuries and damage due to overheating, fire, electric
shock, and high temperatures. Improper use or misuse may cause severe injuries and
damage. Unplug the appliance and leave it cool down completely, before cleaning
the appliance, and when the appliance is not in use.
Do not leave the base unatten-
ded while connected to the power supply. Always unplug the base when the appli-
ance is not in use.
Before operation, ensure that there are no leaks in the kettle. If water runs out during
operation, immediately unplug the appliance (see: ‚Solving Problems‘). Regularly de-
scale the kettle (see: ‘Care and Cleaning’). Do not use violence.
Ensure to place the appliance on a level, flat, stable, and dry surface. For operation,
do not place the appliance near the edge of the working space or on inclined sur-
faces. Do not operate the appliance in a tray or tub or on a metal surface to avoid
high risk of electric shock, when overflow or splashing of hot water occurs. To avoid
overheating, before operation, always fill a sufficient amount of clear drinking water
into the kettle (at least 0.5 litre / MIN).
Always remove the kettle from the base and
wait until the kettle cooled down, before filling the kettle. Do not operate the appli-
ance with the kettle empty.
However, Do not fill in more than the maximum amount
(1.5 litre / MAX). If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may splash out. Always
ensure to hold the kettle level, when it is filled. Do not leave water in the kettle after
use, to avoid excessive build-up of scale.
1. Place the base on the designated working place near an appropriate wall power
outlet.
2. Remove the kettle from the base and open the lid. To open the lid, press the ope-
ning button on top of the lid.
3. Fill the desired amount of clear drinking water into the kettle.
Ensure that the fil-
ling level is between MIN (0.5 litres) and MAX (1.5 litres).
Always keep the kettle
level, as soon as it is filled.
IMPORTANT:
When filling the kettle, ensure not to spill water on the exterior of the
kettle. If required, wipe dry the exterior of the kettle, before placing the kettle onto
the base.
4. Close the lid by pressing the lid down until it settles in place.
IMPORTANT:
Do not operate the kettle with the lid open. Otherwise, the tempera-
ture control and automatic shut-off will not work properly. Additionally, there will be
high energy loss.
5. Ensure that the exterior of the kettle is dry. Then place the kettle onto the base
and connect the appliance to the power supply. A beep sounds and the display
is illuminated. After 2 seconds, the actual water temperature is shown on the dis-
play. The appliance is now ready for operation (standby mode).
WARNING – RISK OF SCALDS:
The upper part of the exterior of the kettle
will get hot during operation. Only touch the kettle at the operating elements and
handle. Even with the lid closed properly, hot steam could escape from under the lid
during operation and some minutes thereafter. Do not hold your face, hands, or other
parts of your body, or any delicate objects over or directly beside the kettle, if the
kettle is still hot.
