Gastroback 42418 Design Teakettle Advanced - Manual (Page 6)

• 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 firmly 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.
First use
Unpack the appliance carefully and remove any promotional material attached to the kettle,
but do not remove the warning or model labels on the appliance. Before first use, fill the
kettle to its maximum level (1600/MAX), boil and discard the water (see Operating your
Design Kettle).
CAUTION: Ensure that there are no objects in the interior of the kettle.
NOTE: Your kettle will only operate when positioned on the power base with the power
switch in the ‘On’ position (red). The kettle will automatically switch OFF, once the water
has boiled. Too little water will result in the kettle switching OFF before the water has boiled.
Operating Your Design Kettle
CAUTION! Only fill with pure drinking water. Do not fill any other liquids or foodstuffs into
the water container and do not add any additional ingredients, such as spices or flavours.
Do not place any foreign objects in the water container. Do not drip or spill any liquids on
the exterior of the kettle or on the power base.
Ensure the kettle is filled with the appropriate amount of water (water level between 750
and 1600/MAX) before switching on the appliance.
Do not immerse the kettle base, switch area, power base or power cord in water, or allow
moisture to come in contact with these parts.
WARNING! Do not use any extension cord or multi socket outlet to avoid
risk of fire and electric shock. Always connect the appliance directly to a separately
protected mains power supply wall socket with protective conductor (earth/ground)
connected properly (see Important Safeguards for Electrical Appliances). Always completely
unwind the power cord before connecting the plug to the power supply.
Do not use any mains adapter other than the supplied power base for the kettle.
Always place the appliance on a stable, level, dry and sufficiently large surface. Ensure,
that the power base will not tilt or wobble during operation. Do not operate the appliance
on an inclined surface, to avoid scalding and damage by boiling water overflowing the
brim of the kettle.
