 Do not use the kettle if the electric lead
is in any way defective. Check it from time to time to ensure that it is not damaged. If any damage should be visi­ble, arrange for the lead to be replaced at once. Never use the kettle if it has been dropped or if it shows any visible signs of damage. Contact one of the Electrolux Customer service centres or an authorised dealer for repair. Repairs to electrical appliances may only be car­ried out by a qualified electrician. Any improper repairs or tampering may seri­ously endanger the user.
 High temperatures are created when
electric kettles such as this one are used, and these can cause burns if the appli­ance is handled carelessly. For this rea­son, you should only ever take hold of the kettle by the handle provided (Fig. 1/ F).
 Make sure the lead does not dangle,
especially while the kettle is in opera­tion, as there is a danger of its beeing tipped over.

Technical description
All 1.0 litre Electrolux high-speed electric kettles have the same basic technical fea­tures:
 Rating: 1010 Watt (230 V)  Maximum capacity: 1.0 litre  Minimum fill: 0.25 litre
Connecting the kettle
Place the kettle on an firm surface. Take the mains plug out of the plug holder. The lead can be unwound from the appliance base to the required length. Plug the appliance into the mains. After use, the plug can be rein­serted in the plug holder to save space.
Turn on the appliance by setting the On/Off switch (Fig. 1/A) to the I position.
Operation
Before using your new kettle for the first time, for hygienic reasons, you should clean it inside and out with a damp cloth. Fill the appliance with water. The minimum amount is 0.25 litre (the min mark). Fill at least enough water to cover the heating coil. The water-level-markings on the inside will give you additional help. The maximum fill is 1.0 (the max mark).
Caution:
or more than the maximum. If this kettle is overfilled, there is a danger of boiling water spraying out or running over.
Important:
ance properly, as the automatic switch-off device can only work properly if the lid is properly shut. This is why you should always close the lid before switching on (Fig. 2).
A double measure of safety
Automatic switch-off device
Your kettle will switch off automatically and the switch will jump back to 0 when the water boils. If you wish to interrupt the boiling process before the kettle switches off automati­cally, simply move the On/Off switch (Fig. 1/ A) to 0. If you wish to reheat the water, just move the switch back to I and wait for the water to start boiling again. The kettle will switch off automatically again.
Protection against boiling dry
All Electrolux kettles and hot-water boilers are fitted with a device which switches them off if there is no water inside. This protects them from the overheating which would result from switching them on when empty or from boiling dry with the lid open. Should your kettle ever accidentally be switched on with no water inside, it is auto­matically protected from overheating. The heating process is automatically inter­rupted. However, in this case, the On/Off switch (Fig. 1/A) does not jump back to the 0 position, for which reason it is necessary for you to set the switch to the 0 position and to leave the appliance to cool for about 5-10 minutes. As a further safety measure, in the event of the operating temperature rising too high as a result of improper use, the temperature cutout will melt through, and the power supply will be cut off. Because of this additional safety feature,
Never fill less than the minimum
Make sure you close the appli-

your Electrolux kettle has the best possible protection against overheating. In this situ­ation, the appliance should be send to an Electrolux service centre.
Cleaning and care
 Disconnect the lead from the electricity
supply every time before cleaning the kettle.
 This kettle is very easy to look after. The
interior should be occasionally rinsed out with clear water and descaled at regular intervals as described below. The outside should simply be wiped with a damp cloth and dried thoroughly. Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning products.
 Never use a damp cloth on the lead or
plug. Make sure every time before using the kettle that the lead and plug are dry.
Descaling
If your tap water is relatively hard, you will need to descale the kettle at regular in­tervals. For this purpose, use a good propri­etary brand of liquid descaling agent and follow the instructions on the pack. When descaling, please follow these in­structions:
 First fill the kettle with water and than
add the descaling agent.
 Do not give your kettle an overdose of
descaling agent!
 Take care  when the water comes to the
boil, the mixture may froth up!
 After descaling, rinse the kettle out
twice with clear water.
For the sake of the environment
Do not simply throw the packaging away, but follow these instructions:
 Cardboard packaging material can be
handed in as salvage at your local wastepaper collection point.
 If the following packaging materials
have been used:
 Plastic bags made of polyethylene (PE)
can be handed in your local PE collec­tion point.
 Padding made of expanded polystyrene
(PS) is CFC-free and can be handed in to your local collection point (recycling depot).
Please ask your local authority for the address of your nearest recycling depot.
