the requirements for safe operation of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance
abroad, ensure that safe operation is possible.
• Always handle the power cord with care. The power cord may never be knotted, twisted
or squeezed. Do not pull or strain the power cord. Do not let the plug or power cord hang
over the edge of the table or counter. Take care that no one will pull the appliance by the
power cord, especially when young children are near. Always grasp the plug to discon-
nect the power cord from the power outlet. Do not touch the plug or power base with wet
hands, when the plug is connected to the power supply.
• Before operation completely unwind the power cord, insert the power cord in the gap on
the bottom of the power base, and ensure that the power base will not tilt or wobble du-
ring operation. Do not place the kettle or power base on the power cord.
• Always switch off the kettle and unplug the power base from the power outlet when not
in use and before moving or cleaning the power base. Do not leave the power base unat-
tended while connected to the power supply. Never leave the appliance unattended when
in operational mode.
• When the power cord warms up during operation or is likely to be damaged, it must be
replaced by an authorised Service Centre. Do not attempt to repair the power cord!
• Do not immerse the kettle, power base or power cord in water or any other liquid. Do
not spill or drip any liquids on the power base, power cord or switch area of the kettle to
avoid risk of fire and electric shock. When liquids are spilled on the exterior of the appli-
ance or condensate has built up on the power base, immediately switch OFF the kettle,
unplug the power base and dry the appliance.
Hot surfaces – Risk of burns
The exterior of the Design Kettle Advanced Pro will get very hot during operation. In additi-
on, beware of steam and hot condensate during operation and even some minutes after
switching off the appliance, especially when opening the lid or pouring out water.
The kettle is still hot, even some minutes after switching off. Do not touch hot surfaces (exte-
rior of the water container and lid) while the appliance is in use. Always use the soft grip
handle for moving the kettle. Always use the opening button for opening the lid.
Do not place the kettle on any heat-sensitive objects, while it is hot. Never place any
heat-sensitive objects in or on the kettle.
Close supervision is important, when moving the kettle immediately after switching off.
Take care to hold the kettle level, especially when filled to the maximum level.
• For operation place the appliance on a dry, stable, heat-resistant, water-resistant and
level surface (i.e. glass, ceramics, stone). Never place any clothes or other objects on
or under the appliance during operation to avoid overheating. Always let the kettle cool
down to room temperature before cleaning.
• Always keep your hands, face and arm as well as any clothing and other objects away
from the lid and spout during operation to avoid scalds and damage. Beware of steam
and hot condensate, when opening the lid. Always keep the lid closed, when operating
the kettle. Otherwise power consumption increases significantly and, additionally, the
automatic switching off of the heating elements will not work out. Ensure all persons stay in
sufficient distance to the appliance during operation.
