Remove the kettle from the base and pour out the water.
· Be careful when pouring the water since it is possible to burn yourself on the boiling water or the
hot steam. Do not open the lid when the water in the water kettle is hot.
· The water kettle can remain on its base when the appliance is not being used.
· Make sure that the water kettle does not receive any power when it is not being used, so always
unplug the appliance when not in use.
· If by accident you would use the kettle without water in it, the boil dry protection will automatically
switch off the appliance. If this happens, let the water kettle cool down completely before filling the
kettle with cold water to start the boiling process.
KEEP WARM FUNCTION
· When the appliance has reached the desired temperature, you can press the ‘KEEP WARM’ button.
The water will then remain warm for about 30 minutes.
· You can also switch on the keep warm function before boiling the water. Press the ‘KEEP WARM’
button and boil the water as described above.
· The appliance does not have a memory function. If you take the kettle off the base, the settings will be
lost.
· The keep warm function only works if there is still a minimum of 0,5 l of water in the kettle.
· If you want to switch off the keep warm function earlier, press once more the ‘KEEP WARM’ button or
press the on/off button.
TYPES OF TEA
· Black tea: this tea is made by allowing the leaves of the tea plant to oxidize completely. The
recommended temperature for the tea water is 90 °C, allowing the tea to steep for 3 - 5 minutes.
· Green tea: green tea is the most healthy type of tea. The tea is obtained by heating and drying the
leaves after harvesting them. The recommended temperature for the tea water is 60-80 °C, allowing
the tea to steep for 3 minutes.
· Oolong tea: this type of tea is also called blue tea and is between green and black tea. This tea is at its
best if you allow it to steep 6 to 8minutes in water at 80-90 °C.
· White tea: this type of tea is rare and is made from the young buds of the tea bush. The recommended
temperature for the water is 70-80 °C, allowing the tea to steep for about 5 minutes.
· Herbal tea: herbal tea cannot be regarded as tea because it is not made from the leaves of the
tea plant. Herbal tea is made from herbs and/or spices and is an infusion. This tea is at its best at a
temperature of 90-100 °C and allowed to steep for 5 to 7 minutes.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
· Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it.
· Never immerse the water kettle or the cord in water. Also make sure that they do not come into
contact with moisture.
· Wipe the outside of the kettle clean with a damp cloth. Never use any chemical, abrasive or scouring
cleaning products.
