OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE
Use the kettle only with its included base.
1.
To fill the kettle, remove it from the power
base and open the lid by pressing the lid
opening button, fill with the desired amount
of water, and then close the lid. Alternatively,
the kettle may be filled through the spout.
The water level should not exceed the
max marks or sit below the min level. Too
little water will cause the kettle to switch off
before the water has boiled.
The max capacity of the kettle is 1.7L.
Do not add water over the maximum
level, as it may spill out of the spout when
boiling. Ensure that the lid is firmly in place
before connecting the plug into a power outlet.
2.
Position the kettle on the power base.
3. Connect the plug into a power outlet.
4.
Press the temperature setting button to set
the temperature to 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 or 100
°C.
5. When the water has reached the selected
temperature, the kettle will switch off
automatically, the display will show the
temperature and a buzzer will sound.
6.
If the temperature cannot be set, this
means that the water in the kettle is hotter
than the desired temperature. The current
temperature will light up. You can turn off
the kettle at any time by pressing the cancel
button.
The selected temperature can be
changed at any time while the kettle is
heating up. While the kettle is heating up, the
current temperature lights up.
Be careful when pouring the water from
your kettle as boiling water may cause
scalds. Open the lid carefully while the water
in the kettle is hot.
Below 45° C, the kettle automatically
shuts down and goes into “standby”
mode.
If the container is removed and re-introduced
before the heating process is over, the
settings stay active for a few minutes. Then
the appliance enters into stand-by mode.
Press any button to start it again.
KEEP-WARM FUNCTION
This function makes it possible to keep the water
at the set temperature.
You can turn it on with any temperature setting.
Press the keep-warm button and a light will show
that the function is active. To turn if off, press the
button again. The keep-warm indicator goes off.
The keep-warm feature switches off
automatically after 1 hour.
PRE-BOIL FUNCTION
This function makes it possible to bring the water
to the boil regardless of the set temperature. Press
the Pre-Boil button to start it. The appliance heats
the water up to the boiling point and stays active
for 2 minutes. Then the temperature decreases to
the set value and a buzzer sounds.
BOIL-DRY PROTECTION
Should you accidentally let the kettle operate
without water, the boil-dry protection will
automatically switch off the power. If this occurs,
allow the kettle to cool down before filling with
cold water.
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect the appliance from the power
outlet before cleaning.
1.
Never immerse the kettle, power cord
or power base in water and never allow
moisture to get in contact with these parts.
2.
Wipe the outside of the body with a damp
cloth or cleaner. Never use a toxic cleaner.
3.
Remember to clean the filter on a regular
basis. For easier cleaning, detach the filter
by pressing it down directly. Then replace it
after cleaning.
Do not use chemical, steel, wooden or
abrasive cleaners or brushes to clean
the outside of the kettle to prevent any gloss
loss.
