Thank you for purchasing a KRUPS kettle. Read the instructions that apply to most of our models carefully and keep
them at hand.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed:

1. Read all instructions. When reading, please refer to the page of illustrations to
relate the pictures and text. The appliance should be used strictly in
accordance with these instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. High temperatures are generated during use which
could cause burns. Always lift the kettle by handle.

3. To prevent fire, electric shock and injury, do not immerse cord, plugs, base or
kettle in water or other liquids.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Please use and keep the kettle and its supply cord out of the reach of children.
Warn other users, especially children, of the possible dangers (eg. escaping
steam, hot water, hot lid, etc).

5. Do not leave appliance unattended while in use. Unplug from outlet when not
in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance which has been damaged in any way or has a
defective cord or plug. Return it to the nearest authorized service center for
examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

12. To disconnect, turn any control to “off”, then remove the plug from the wall
outlet.

13. Do not place the base of your kettle in a metal tray. If water spills over into
the tray, and a build-up occurs, it could become dangerous to touch.

14. Position the kettle to the rear of work surfaces to prevent over-hanging of the
power cord. Water can remain hot for a considerable time after boiling and
can present a scald hazard.

15. Before pouring, wait until the kettle has stopped boiling and then pour
steadily. If the kettle is tipped too much, the lid may fall off or open.

16. WARNING: a cordless kettle must never be filled on its base.

17. An electrical appliance should not be used if it has been dropped at any time.
In such cases, please contact your authorized KRUPS service center.

18. Never lift the lid of the kettle while water is boiling.

19. Your KRUPS appliance is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

20. Use appliance only for its intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A. A short power cord or a detachable power cord is provided to reduce the risks of

becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord accidentally.

B. Longer detachable power cords or extension cords are available and may be

used if care is exercised in their use.

C. If a long detachable power cord or an extension cord is used:

1) the marked electrical rating of the detachable power cord or extension cord

should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a

grounding type 3-wire cord.

3) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter

where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

The appliance may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug
in anyway.
