HIGH TEMPERATURE—RISK OF BURNS
WARNING!
The »Design Kettle Cool Touch« is equipped with
electric heating elements for heating up drinking water. Thus, the appli-
ance could cause severe scalds, burns and damage, when used impro-
perly.
Always hold the kettle level when filled, to avoid spilling. The appliance
and the contents will be hot even for some time after operation. Always
leave the appliance cool down to room temperature, before cleaning or
storing the appliance.
Even with the lid properly closed, hot steam and splashes of hot water
could escape during operation. Do not hold your face or other parts of
your body over or directly near the appliance during operation and while
the appliance is still hot to avoid scalds due to steam and splashes.
In the area of the upper rim, even the exterior of the appliance will get
very hot during operation. Only touch the appliance at the operating ele-
ments and the handle, when it is hot. Before pouring, wait until the water
has stopped boiling and then pour carefully to avoid spilling. If the kettle
is tilted too much, the water could run out besides the spout, thus getting
spilled. Always keep the lid closed during operation and when the water
is boiling or still very hot, to avoid scalding.
Always keep the appliance in sufficient distance to the edge of the table
or counter and to other objects. For operation, leave at least 1 m of free
space above the appliance and at least 20 cm of free space on each
side, to avoid damage due to steam and hot water. Do not operate the
appliance under overhanging boards and drop-lights or near any delicate
objects (e.g. curtains) to avoid damage due to hot steam and water, over-
heating, and fire.
Do not hold your hands or any foreign objects (e.g. clothes, brushes) into
the interior of the kettle with the appliance connected to the power supply.
