SELF-RESETTING DRY BOIL PROTECTION
The water kettle is fitted with a self-resetting dry boil protection device, which safegu-
ards against overheating of the heating elements. Overheating may be caused by …
• too much scale on the heating elements. De-scale the kettle in time (see: ‘Care
and Cleaning’).
• too little water in the kettle. Always observe the MIN filling level (0.5 litre).
Please keep in mind, that water will vaporize, when left for a long time in the
kettle on high temperature. Observe the filling level during operation.
If overheating occurs, the kettle will automatically switch off the heating elements. In
this case, remove the kettle from the base and pour out the water. Then leave the
kettle cool down by waiting at least 30 minutes. Thereafter, you can reactivate the
appliance.
BEFORE FIRST USE

do not use glass parts again, when there are any cracks or chipped edges. Do
not pour cold water into the hot kettle. Always leave the kettle cool down
before filling it again.
For operation, always unwind the power cord completely
to avoid hazard due to overheating, fire, and electric shock. Always unplug the
appliance before cleaning it, and when it is not in use.
Do not place the kettle or
power base in an automatic dishwasher.
Do not place or immerse the appliance
(power base and kettle) or power cord in water or other liquids or spill any liquids
on the power base, power cord, or the exterior of the kettle. For filling, always
remove the kettle from the power base. Do not use any abrasive or corrosive clea-
ners for cleaning to avoid damage to the surfaces.
