INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new kettle, please read
through these instructions carefully before using it
for the first time. Pay particular attention to the
safety measures. We also recommend that you
keep the instructions for future reference, so that
you can remind yourself of the functions of the
kettle.
SAFETY MEASURES
Normal use of the kettle
• Incorrect use of the kettle may cause personal
injury and damage to the kettle.
• Use the kettle for its intended purpose only.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any
damage resulting from incorrect use or
handling (see also Guarantee Terms).
• The kettle may only be connected to 230 V, 50
Hz.
• The kettle should not be switched on unless
there is water in it.
• The kettle or cord must not be placed in water
or any other liquid.
• Never leave the kettle unattended when in use
and keep an eye on children.
• The water level in the kettle must not exceed
the maximum filling level (MAX 1.5L) marked
on the water level gauges.
• This kettle is not suitable for commercial or
outdoor use.
Positioning the kettle
• Always place the kettle at the back of a
kitchen counter and at a safe distance from
flammable objects such as curtains,
tablecloths or similar.
• Always place the kettle so that the spout is
turned away from any other surfaces as the
steam from boiling water may damage them.
• Do not cover the kettle.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of
the counter, and keep it away from hot objects
and naked flames.
• Return the kettle to its base after use.
Cord, plug and mains socket
• Check regularly that the cord is not damaged
and do not use the kettle if it is, or if it has
been dropped or damaged in any other way.
• If the kettle, cord or plug is damaged, it must
be inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an
authorised repair engineer, otherwise there is a
risk of electric shock. Never try to repair the
appliance yourself.
• Remove the plug from the socket for cleaning.
• Avoid pulling the cord when removing the plug
from the socket. Instead, hold the plug.
• Check that it is not possible to pull or trip over
the kettle or any extension cord.
