care when opening the lid to avoid scalding from escaping steam.
Protection against starting without water
If the kettle is switched on accidentally without water or with only a small amount of water,
the kettle will switch off automatically when a certain temperature is reached. The safety
fuse is activated, which protects the appliance from damage due to overheating. The I /
O switch automatically switches to the "O" (off) position and the On light turns off. Unplug
the power cord from the power outlet and wait a few minutes for the heating element to
cool down. You will then be able to use the kettle again.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or any maintenance, always switch off the appliance, unplug the power
cord from the outlet and allow it to cool down completely.
Warning:
Never immerse the kettle, the base, the power cord or the plug of the power cord in
water or any other liquid.
Wipe the outer shell of the kettle with a dry cloth or sponge dampened in warm water
with a little kitchen detergent. Then wipe the surface dry with a clean cloth.
Wipe the inside of the kettle with a soft sponge or a clean cloth soaked in clean warm
water. Do not use detergent or other chemicals to clean the interior. Rinse the kettle
several times with clean water after cleaning.
Wipe the stand with a dry, clean cloth only.
Warning:
Do not use plastic or metal scrapers, harsh cleaners, chemicals, petrol, solvents or other
similar substances to clean any parts of the appliance. The surface finish could be seriously
damaged. No part of the appliance is dishwasher safe.
Descaling
During normal use, dirt from water settles on the inner surface of the kettle and so ‑called
limescale is formed. It is therefore necessary to descale regularly, depending on the
frequency of use of the kettle and the hardness of the water, as limescale can negatively
affect the life of the kettle and degrade the taste and appearance of the boiled water.
To remove scale, you can use common agents that are specially designed for kettles. Or
you can use white vinegar:
1. Pour 3 cups of white vinegar into the kettle and add clean water so that the bottom of the
kettle is completely covered. Let it stand overnight. Do not boil.
2.
Pour out the solution and fill the kettle with clean water up to the MAX line. Boil the water
