Thank you for choosing an appliance from the
KRUPS
range which is intended exclusively for
the heating of water.
Safety recommendations
• Use your kettle only for the heating of
drinking water.
• Place the kettle and its cord on a flat heat-
resistant surface.
• Keep the kettle and the power cord away
from any source of heat, from any wet or
slippery surface, and from sharp edges.
• Do not fill to above the max level or below
the min level. If the kettle is over-filled,
boiling water may be ejected.
• Do not open the lid when the water is
boiling.
• Check that the electrical installation
conforms with currently applicable stan-
dards, and compatible with the power and
the voltage indicated underneath your
model.
• Connect the kettle only to a socket with an
earth incorporated.
Any connection error will nullify the
guarantee.
• Your kettle must be used only with the lid
closed, and with its associated base.
• The use of multiple sockets and/or mains
extension leads is not recommended.
• Do not place the appliance, the base, the
power cable or the plug in water or any
other liquid.
• Do not use abrasive pads for cleaning.
• To remove the anti-scale filter, take the kettle
off its base, and leave it to cool. Never
remove the filter when the appliance is full
of hot water.
• Our guarantee excludes kettles which
fail or which work badly, due to scale.
• Never use any descaling method other than
that recommended.
• Do not use the kettle if the power cord or
the plug is damaged. In order to avoid all
danger, you should have the faulty part
replaced by a KRUPS approved service
centre.
• Do not use the appliance if it is not working
correctly or if it has been damaged. Under
no circumstances should you dismantle the
kettle yourself - this is for your own safety
and will negate any guarantee.

and servicing by the customer should be
carried out by a KRUPS approved service
centre.

use only. Any commercial use, inappropriate
use or failure to comply with the instruc-
