CAUTION:
• Do not remove the appliance from the base without
shutting it off first. As long as the switch is in the I posi-
tion, the kettle will stay turned on.

the base! Also ensure that it is turned off when you set
it back onto the base!
WARNING:
• Always turn the appliance off before cleaning it and remove the
mains plug. Wait until the appliance has cooled down.
• Never immerse the appliance or the base in water or other liq-
uids. Otherwise this might result in an electric shock or fire.

• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Clean the filter on the lid with a nylon brush.
• Rinse the water container out with clean water. Then dry
it off with a cloth.
• Clean the housing after use with a slightly damp cloth.
Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends
on the hardness of the water and on how often the
appliance is used.
• If the appliance switches off before the water boils, it
probably needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use
the quantities stated in the instructions.
Problem
It is not possible to switch
the appliance on.
The appliance switches off
