Risks Deriving from High Temperatures
• Do not place any objects or clothes on the appliance during operation to avoid overheating.
• Firmly close the lid of the kettle, before switching on the kettle, and keep the lid closed
during operation. Do not hold your face, hands or other parts of your body over the lid
or spout, and always beware of hot steam, when opening the lid after operation to avoid
scalding. The outside walls of the kettle and the lid become very hot during operation
and some minutes after operation. Thus, only touch the kettle by the handle.
• Dry spilled water immediately. When moving the filled kettle, close supervision is necessary
to keep the kettle in an upright position to avoid spilling hot water, and thus avoid injuries
and damage.
• Always keep your hands, face and arm as well as any clothing and other heat-sensitive
objects away from the slots of the toaster during operation to avoid injury
- risk of getting
burned.
• ATTENTION: The exterior of the toaster will get very hot during operation. Do not
touch the exterior during operation or shortly after. Wait for the appliance to cool down.
• Always let the appliance cool down before cleaning.
Important Safeguards for Electrical Appliances
• Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corresponds to the voltage
requirements of the appliance (220/240 V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for 16 A). Always connect the
appliance directly to a separately protected mains power supply wall socket with protective
conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Before operation completely unwind the
power cord. Do not use any extension cord or multi socket outlet.
The installation of a residual current safety switch with a maximum rated residual operating
current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is recommended. If in doubt, contact
your electrician for further information.
• 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
disconnect the appliance from the power outlet. Do not touch the plug or appliance with
wet hands, when the plug is connected to the power supply.
• Always switch OFF and unplug the appliance when not in use and
before moving or cleaning the appliance. Do not leave the appliance
unattended while connected to the power supply.
• Before operation completely unwind the power cord, and ensure that the power base will
not tilt or wobble during operation. Do not place the kettle or power base on the power cord.
