be kept closed at all times.
∙ Caution: Any misuse of the
appliance can cause severe
personal injury.
∙ The appliance must only be used with
water.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – such materials
are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fi tted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull the
power cord, it must no longer be used:
even invisible damage may have adverse
effects on the operational safety of the
appliance.
∙ The cups and spoon must be removed
from the kettle before use.
∙ The appliance must be used only on a
heat-resistant, level surface.
∙ Do not operate the appliance below a
hanging cupboard or similar object; there
is a risk that escaping steam may be
trapped underneath.

cord to come into contact with open
fl ames or any hot surfaces such as hot-
plates.
∙ Do not let the power cord hang free, and
keep the cord well away from hot parts of
the housing.

socket,
- in case of any malfunction,
- after use,
- during cleaning.

results from improper use, or if these
instructions are not complied with.
Thermal safety cut-out
The pre-set thermal safety cut-out protects
the heating element from overheating should
the appliance be erroneously switched on
without any water, or if the heating plate
is calcifi ed. Once the safety cut-out has
switched off the kettle, it must be allowed to
cool down suffi ciently, or must be descaled
before it is switched on again.
Before using for the fi rst time
To clean the kettle, boil and discard the fi rst
fi lling of water.
Boiling water
∙ Set the voltage selector to the correct
voltage.
∙ Open the water container lid and take out
the cups and spoon, if necessary.
∙ Fill the container with the desired amount
of water, observing the Min (0.1 l) and Max
(0.5 l) markings inside the container.
∙ Close the lid.
∙ Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket
and press the On/Off switch; the indicator
light comes on.
