Safety information
To avoid potentially fatal injury
through electric shock:
• Ensure that the base with the external electrical
connections NEVER comes into contact with
water! Should they unintentionally become wet,
first allow them to dry out completely before
taking the appliance back into use.
• Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet
or damp during operation. Lay the cable so that
it cannot be trapped or otherwise damaged.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• Always remove the plug from the power socket
after use.
• ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power
socket before pouring water from the appliance.
• ALWAYS set the voltage selector on the appliance to the rating of the local power supply. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you operate
the appliance on a 230 V mains supply when
the voltage selector switch is set at 120 V (or
vice-versa). It would destroy the appliance and
the guarantee would be void. Make enquiries
about the rating of the local electrical mains supply
from the energy supplier or the hotel personnel.
First when this has been done insert the plug into
a power socket and then switch the appliance
on.
• Connect the appliance only to correctly installed
power sockets with a current rating of 120 V
60 Hz / 230 V ~50 Hz.
To avoid burns and other injuries:
• Always heat water with the lid closed, otherwise
the automatic cut-out may not function. Boiling
water could then spray out over the rim.
• Hot steam clouds may be released. The boiler
also becomes very hot during operation. Wear
oven mitts.
• Ensure that the appliance is standing securely
and vertically before switching it on.
Boiling water can cause an unstable kettle to fall
over.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals
(including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences in
experience and/or knowledge unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety
or receive from this person instruction in how the
appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance..

Boiling water
Danger
NEVER take the water boiler into use if the electrical
connections are wet resp. moist – there is a risk of
you receiving an electric schock!
Injury hazard
For safety reasons, the lid 1 should not be opened
while the water is boiling or is very hot. There is a
risk of receiving severe scalds.
Notice
Always use freshly drawn water. Do not consume
any water that has already stood in the water boiler
for longer than one hour. Do not reboil water that
has cooled down. Always pour old water away.
Microbes could have formed in it!
• Check to ensure that the setting of the voltage
selector switch 5 corresponds to that of the local
power supply. If necessary, adjust the voltage
selector switch 5 to the correct setting.
• Open the lid 1.
• Hold the water boiler upright while filling it. Only
in this way can you correctly read the interior

Notice
It can happen that the control lamp 6 glows immediately, as soon as you connect the appliance
with the mains power source. This means that the
On switch 2 was already pressed down when the
connection was made. In this case, the boiling process starts immediately. Therefore, always check
that the control lamp 6 is glowing, this shows that
it is heating up.
• Press the ON switch 2.
• The control lamp 6 indicates that the appliance
is now heating the water up.
• The appliance switches itself off and the control
lamp 6 goes out as soon as the water is on the
boil.
Never submerse any parts of the appliance in
water or other liquids! This can create the risk
of a life-threatening electrical shock if residual
liquid comes into contact with powered components.
Injury hazard
Remove the power cable from the wall socket before cleaning. Risk of electric shock! Allow the
appliance to cool down. Risk of Burns!
• Clean the outside surfaces and the power cable 4
with a slightly damp dish cloth. Be sure to dry
the appliance well before taking it back into use.
• Never use detergents, abrasive cleaners or solvents.
These can damage the appliance.
Notice
You cannot stop the boiling process manually.
Should you wish to stop the boiling process you
must disconnect the plug from the power socket.
Warning
ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power
socket before pouring water from the appliance.
Otherwise, water could possibly land on the electrical
contacts and cause an electric shock!
