Preparation
NOTE
•
Do not operate the device without water. If this does happen, the heating
element of the device switches off automatically (dry-running protection). In this
case, allow the device to cool down for around 5 – 10 minutes before water is
poured in and the device is used again.
If water needs to be added, switch off the device, pull the mains plug out of the
plug socket and allow the device to cool down for a few minutes. When opening the
lid
(
3
), use potholders or similar gloves and be careful.
Boiling Water
1. Pour water into the water reservoir (
5
) (see the “Operation” chapter | “Filling the Water
Reservoir”).
2. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed plug socket that is easily accessible.
3. Set the On / Off switch (
9
) on the bottom of the base (
7
) to Position
I
(on) in order to
turn the device on. The operating lamp in the On / Off switch lights up.
4. Turn the thermostat control (
6
) clockwise to start heating. The control lamp (
10
) lights
up blue. Turn the thermostat control until it resists in order to boil water. The water
carries on boiling until it has completely evaporated.
Heating Water
If water is just to be heated, boil the water once (see the “Boiling Water” section). As soon
as it boils, turn the thermostat control (
6
) counter clockwise until it resists. The control
lamp (
10
) extinguishes and the device switches off. The water gradually cools if it is not
removed and reused.
Interval Boiling
For an energy-saving way to boil water, it is advisable to choose the interval boiling
setting. Here the thermostat regulates the supply of power as required. The device
switches off the heating element once the water has boiled and switches it back on again
as soon as the temperature of the water drops.
For this purpose, boil the water once (see the “Boiling Water” section). As soon as it boils,
turn the control dial (
6
) down so that the control lamp (
10
) goes out.
As soon as the thermostat switches the heating back on, the control lamp lights up blue
again.
Switch the device off after every use by turning the thermostat control clockwise
until it resists.
