Preparation of the electric kettle for
operation
Before the first use, wash the kettle inside
(for washing instructions see “Cleaning and
maintenance”), fill it with water up to the “max”
level, and let it boil four times (use fresh water
each time) and wash again.
Operating instructions of the electric kettle
(Fig. B)
1
Open the lid
(5)
.
2
Place the filter
(11)
in the kettle – if it was taken out
before.
3
Fill the kettle up with the desired amount of water (the
level is visible on the indicator
(7)
).
Do not boil the water if it is below the minimum
level or beyond the maximum level on the
indicator (
7
).
4
Close the lid.
5
Place the kettle on the power base
(12)
.
6
Put the plug of the connecting cord into a mains socket
with an earth pin – the upper part of the kettle body will
light up.
7
Turn on the ketttle by pressing the switch button into
position I – the indicator light will come on.
8
The kettle switches off automatically when the water
has reached the boiling point, the lever switch returns to its
starting position – the light comes off.
If further use of the kettle is anticipated, it is not necessary
to remove the plug of the connecting cord from the power
socket.
Be careful not to fill up with water beyond the
nominal capacity when pouring water into the
kettle.
The rising of the water level in the kettle is delayed in relation
to the speed of pouring the water. It is caused by the filter
slowing down the speed of the flow. This can be prevented by
pouring the last portions of water extremely carefully before
the water reaches the maximum level on the indicator.
In the event that an empty kettle is switched
on, it will be switched off automatically by
a thermal device.
To switch on the kettle after it has cooled down
(about 15 min), remove it from the base, fill with
water, replace on the base and switch on by
pressing the switch (8). The cooling down of
the kettle can be accelerated by pouring cold
water into the kettle.
Cleaning and maintenance
(Fig. C)
Always clean a cold kettle!
1
Remove the plug of the connecting cord from the power
socket.
2
Take out the filter
(11)
.
3
Clean the outside surfaces with a soft cloth moistened
with washing-up liquid.
In order to remove the build-up of hard water film from the
outside and inside walls of the kettle, wipe them with a cloth
moistened with vineger.
4
Rinse the kettle with fresh water.
Various black-coloured, rusty, milky, etc.
deposits may form inside the kettle and float on
the water. This is caused by minerals occurring
naturally in water (calcium, magnesium, iron,
etc.). Such discoloration is not caused by faulty
operation of the appliance and does not affect
its use. In case of substantial accumulation of
mineral deposits, proceed as described in the
“Descaling” section.
