Note:
The »Design Kettle Cool Touch« is no measuring appliance. There may be diffe-
rences between the temperature displayed on the display and the actual tempera-
ture of the water. Using the temperature selection buttons, you may change the set
temperature any time you like before and during operation (see below: ‘Selecting
the Desired Temperature’).
Simply press the ON/OFF button to start the boiling cycle. On the display the set
temperature is shown and the kettle starts heating immediately. With none of the
temperature selection buttons pressed, the set temperature is always “100”°C.
As soon as the water reaches the set temperature, the kettle turns off. To activate
keep warm function press the „keep warm“ button. Keeping the water hot for at
up to 30 minutes. Thereafter, the kettle will shut off and the display gets dark.
IMPORTANT:
The maximum water temperature of the keep warm function is limited
to 90 °C, because water will evaporate too quickly when kept at a higher tempera-
ture. Thus, there would be a high risk of overheating when the water level falls below
the minimum amount of 0,5 litres.
Note:
You may cancel the operating cycle at any time by removing the kettle from its
base, or by pressing the ON/OFF button. Do not leave the kettle in keep warm
operation needlessly to avoid useless energy loss.
SELECTING THE DESIRED TEMPERATURE
The electronic »Design Kettle Cool Touch« can heat water to a selected temperature
in the range from 35°C to 100°C (boiling temperature). The set temperature may be
modified at any time during operation (heating up or keeping warm) or in standby
mode. However, please keep in mind, that the actual water temperature could rise
above the set temperature after heating. This will occur especially with a low tempe-
rature selected and/or only a small amount of water in the kettle.
1. Press the temperature selection buttons „KEEP WARM“ or „TEMP“ several times
until the desired temperature is shown on the display.
2. If the kettle is in standby mode, press the ON/OFF button to start operation. If
the kettle is in operation already, the thermostat of the kettle will automatically be
adjusted to the newly set temperature.
SOLVING PROBLEMS

under the base or
runs down on the
exterior of the
kettle.
There is too much water
