HIGH TEMPERATURE – RISK OF BURNS
WARNING:
The Tea & More is equipped with electric heating elements for
heating up drinking water. Thus, the appliance could cause severe scalds, burns
and damage, when used improperly.
• Always hold the kettle level when filled, to avoid spilling. The appli-
ance and the contents will be hot even for some time after operation.
Always leave the appliance cool down to room temperature, before
cleaning or storing the appliance.
• Even with the lid properly closed, hot steam and splashes of hot water
could escape during operation. Do not hold your face or other parts
of your body over or directly near the appliance during operation
and while the appliance is still hot to avoid scalds due to steam and
splashes.
•
Do not expose the kettle, glass insert, or glass lid to extreme varia-
tions in temperature to avoid cracks (see: ‘Properties of Your New
Tea & More’).
• Even the exterior of the appliance could get very hot during opera-
tion. Only touch the appliance and its parts and accessories at the
operating elements and the handles, when they could be hot. Beware
of hot steam and condensate, when opening the lid and/or emptying
the kettle. Before pouring, wait until the water has stopped boiling
and then pour carefully to avoid spilling. If the kettle is tilted too much,
the water could run out besides the spout, thus getting spilled. Keep
the lid closed during operation and when the water is boiling or still
very hot, to avoid scalding.
• For handling the glass insert after cooking, protect your hands against
heat.
