twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Always grasp the plug to dis-
connect the power cord. Do not touch the appliance or power plug
with wet hands with the appliance connected to the power supply.
• Always unwind the power cord completely for operation to avoid
hazard of overheating, fire and electric shock.
• Do not place or immerse the power base, kettle or power cord in
water or any other liquid. DO NOT spill or drip any liquids on the
power base or the power cord or on the exterior of the kettle to avo-
id risk of fire and electric shock. When parts of the appliance are
leaking during operation and/or liquids accumulate under the power
base or run down on the exterior of the appliance, immediately unplug
the appliance. Refer to the instructions in chapter ‘Solving Problems’.
