Safety system
All AEG kettles are equipped with a
boil-dry safety cut-out. This feature
protects the appliance from over-
heating when started without water or
from boiling until it is empty if used
with the lid open. If the appliance is
accidently switched on without water,
it is automatically protected against
overheating. The heating process is
automatically interrupted. Before
using the kettle again let it cool down
for 5-10 minutes.
