Safety Instructions
To avoid the risk of fatalities from electric
shocks:
• Make certain that the base
t
with the electrical
connections never comes into contact with
water! Let the base
t
become completely dry
before using if it has accidentally become wet.
• Only use the hot water kettle with the supplied
base
t
.
• Make sure that the power cord never becomes
wet or damp during operation. Lay the cord such
that it cannot be pinched or otherwise
damaged.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or
cables to be replaced as soon as possible by a
qualified technician or by our Customer Service
Department to avoid the risk of injury.
• Always pull the plug out of the power socket
after use. Switching off the device is not sufficient
because the device receives power as long as
the power plug is connected to the socket.
Ensure that the appliance, the power cable
and the power plug are NEVER submersed
in water or other fluids.
To prevent the risk of fire or injury:
• Always heat water with a closed lid
q
, otherwi-
se the automatic cut-out mechanism doesn’t
work. Boiling water can then spray out over the
edge.
• Hot steam clouds may be released. The kettle
u
is also very hot during operation. Wear oven
mits.
• Make certain that the device rests firmly and ver-
tically before switching it on. Boiling water can
cause an unstabile kettle to fall over.
• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
