Safety instructions when operating the
appliance
DANGER!
Danger to life from electric shock!
There is danger to life if the live 360° power base
comes in contact with water! Make sure that the
360° power base is always dry and never comes
into contact with water. Boiling water must not spill
over and no water must flow onto the 360° power
base.
WARNING!
Danger of burns from hot appliance
components!
The kettle gets very hot when in use. Contact with
the skin can cause burns! Parts of the appliance
can be very hot and cause burns even after it has
been switched off. Hence, allow the appliance to
cool down fully without fail before cleaning it.
WARNING!
Hot steam presents a scald hazard!
Hot steam ejected by the kettle can cause
scalding. Observe the maximum filling level. Never
open or remove the lid during operation.

The installation of a faulty current protective
device with a rated breaking current offers you
additional safety by ensuring that 30 mA will
not be exceeded in the house installation. Let
your installation electrician advise you!
Never switch on the appliance if there is no

Disposal of appliance
On 1st July 2007, The Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations were
implemented in the UK in order to reduce the
quantity of electronic waste being sent to landfill
and thereby protect our environment.
Marks & Spencer plc has joined a new body - the
Distributor Take-Back Scheme (DTS) - which
will allow you to deposit your old electrical and
electronic items at UK recycling sites, free of
charge. To find your nearest recycling site for waste
electrical and electronic items, visit www.recyclemore.co.uk and simply type your postcode into the
recycling bank locator. You’ll find advice and tips
on other aspects of recycling.
Please note all electrical and electronic
products and/or packaging now carries
a “crossed out wheelie bin” logo to help
you identify products that are recyclable.
Marks & Spencer stores will not accept electrical
items in store for recycling. Instead, Marks &
Spencer has contributed to the funding of an
alternative network of UK recycling facilities as
stated above. Store staff will however be able to
advise you as to the location of recycling facilities
in your area.
