Thermal safety cut-out
The preset thermal safety cut-out protects the heating element from overheating should the
appliance be erroneously switched on without any water, or if the heating element is calcified.
Once the safety cut-out has switched off the kettle, it must be allowed to cool down
sufficiently, or must be descaled before it is switched on again.
Before using for the first time
•
For reasons of hygiene, discard the first three filling of water.
Boiling water
Never remove the water container from the base (or replace it) while the appliance is switched
on.
1.
Remove the water container from its base.
2.
Release and open the lid, and fill the container with water to the desired level,
observing the MIN and MAX markings.

Before closing the lid and placing the container back on its base, ensure that the
appliance has not yet been switched on.

automatically switched off by the integral steam cut-off device.

7.
To pour hot water, remove the container from its base.
8.
To prevent hot steam from being emitted, ensure that the lid remains closed while
pouring out the water.
Descaling
Depending on the water quality in your area, lime deposits may build up on the heating
element. It is advisable to remove any such deposits at regular intervals. A mixture of 0.5
liters of water to two tablespoons of vinegar essence is suitable.
1.
Pour the mixture in.
2.
Switch the appliance on and let the solution reach boiling point.
3.
Leave it to take effect for a short period.
4.
To clean the container after descaling, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Do not pour descaling mixtures down enamel-coated sinks.
