SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Important! To minimize the risk of fire, electric shock or
injury:
Carefully read this instruction before using the appli-
ance.
If water spills on the external electrical components or
the base of a kettle, dry it thoroughly before switching
back on.
Do not use the appliance if it shows any signs of dam-
age to the power cord, or if the appliance has been
dropped on the floor.
After use, always pull out the plug from the socket, and
also in case of any malfunction or before cleaning.
When pulling out the plug from the wall outlet, never pull
by the cord, only the plug.
The kettle is a class I shock protection appliance, and
therefore power outlet to which it is connected to must
be equipped with grounding pin.
Children do not realize the dangers that can arise when
using electrical appliances; therefore keep the kettle out
of reach of children.
Do not attempt to remove any parts of the housing or
insert any objects into the appliance.
To prevent damage to the power cord, do not place it
over sharp edges or close to hot surfaces.
Do not expose the appliance to rain or humidity, and do
not use it outdoors. Do not operate the appliance with
wet hands.
Use only clean cold water and fill the kettle slowly (for
about 2 minutes) - strong water jet causes water splash-
ing.
Never fill the kettle with more water than up the indi -
cated maximum water level.
This appliance generates heat.
Never place the appliance on hot surfaces.
Warning: the escaping water or steam causes a risk of
burns. When using the appliance, do not touch any part
of the kettle except the handle and make sure the cover
is properly closed. This appliance is suitable for water
heating only. Never pour any other liquids into the ket-
tle.
