Before the First Use
1. Remove all the packaging material!

, by pouring water into it and
bringing it to a boil (See "Operation“). Pour out
the water and repeat the process.
Operation
1. Pull the power cord out only as much as is
necessary. Pull it out by opening the base station
and connect the plugs with an appropriate
power socket.
2. Open the lid and fill in with the desired quan-
tity of water. Please note the level indicator
of
the appliance.
Fill the kettle
...
- at least up to the MIN mark, so as not to over-
heat the electric water kettle.
– no higher than the MAX mark so that no boi-
ling water spills out.

base station
. The appliance can only be swit-
ched on if it is fixed to the base station.

on „

lamp
begins to flash.

automatically. The On/Off switch
automati-
cally moves to the "O“ position, the indicator
lamp
turns off.
6. If you want to stop or interrupt the boiling pro-
cess, keep the On/Off switch
on the "O“
position.
However, you can continue the boiling process
by waiting for 20 seconds until the heating ele-
ment has cooled off. You can then switch on the
appliance once again.
During the cooling phase, do not press the
on/off switch
, as this can damage the appli-
ance.
7. While the appliance is not in use, unplug the
power cord from the socket, so as to prevent the
appliance from an inadvertent start.
Note:
The appliance has a safety device. This swit-
ches off the heating element, if the appliance is
switched on when empty or is cooking dry. In such
a condition, allow the appliance to cool off com-
pletely, before pouring in water again.
For safety reasons and to avoid injuries do not
open the lid when the water is boiling or very hot.
