container may cause danger
from boiling water being
forced out.
∙ Also beware of the danger
of scalding from hot steam
being emitted. Therefore, do
not touch any parts of the
appliance except the handle
during use.
∙ Caution! During the boiling
process and when pouring
out hot water, the lid must
be kept closed at all times.
∙ The kettle may only be
operated with the base
provided with the appliance.
∙ Never remove the water
container from the base
(or replace it) while the
appliance is switched on.
∙ If the water container is not
on its base, ensure that it
cannot slip on any smooth
surface.
∙ The electrical connections in
the base must be protected
at all times against possible
contact with water.
∙ Caution: Any misuse of the
appliance can cause severe
personal injury.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – such materials
are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fi tted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull the
power cord, it must no longer be used:
even invisible damage may have adverse
effects on the operational safety of the
appliance.
∙ The appliance must be used only on a
heat-resistant, level surface.
∙ Do not operate the appliance below a
hanging cupboard or similar object; there
is a risk that escaping steam may be
trapped underneath.
∙ Do not allow the appliance or its power
cord to come into contact with open
fl ames or any hot surfaces such as hot-
plates.
∙ Do not let the power cord hang free, and
keep the cord well away from hot parts of
the housing.
∙ Take special care when you carry the
container with hot water in.
∙ Always allow the appliance to cool down
before fi lling with fresh water.
