∙ No responsibility will be accepted if
damage results from improper use, or if
these instructions are not complied with.
Intended Use
∙ The appliance is intended exclusively for
heating clear, pure water. Any other use
is considered improper and can cause
severe personal injury or damage to the
appliance.
∙ The appliance is not intended for
heating milk, tea or other food.
Thermal safety cut-out
∙ The preset thermal safety cut-out
protects the heating element from
overheating should the appliance
be erroneously switched on without
containing any water or if the heating
element is calcified. When the reset
button on the bottom of the appliance
pops out, it stops heating water.
∙ Once the safety cut-out has switched
off the kettle, it must be allowed to cool
down sufficiently.
∙ You can then use the reset button on the
bottom of the appliance to descale the
appliance before using it again.
Before using for the first time

condensate may form on the appliance
bottom due to automatic steam cut-off.
