Safety instructions
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
► Ensure that the base with the electrical connections NEVER
comes into contact with water! Ensure that the base is
completely dry before use, especially if it has accidentally
become wet.
► Use the kettle only with the supplied base.
► Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet or damp
during operation. Lay the cable so that it cannot be trapped
or otherwise damaged.
► To avoid risks, arrange for defective plugs and/or cables to
be replaced at once by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department.
► After use, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power
socket. Switching the appliance off is not sufficient, because
the appliance is under power for as long as the plug is connected to the power socket.
► Before use check the appliance for signs of visible external
damage. Do not put into operation an appliance that is
damaged or has been dropped.
► Repairs should only be carried out by authorized specialist
companies or by the Customer Service department. Incompetent repairs can result in significant risks for the user. In
addition warranty claims become void.
► Do not allow any liquid to run over the appliance connector.
NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids!
You could receive a fatal electric shock if residual liquids
come into contact with live components during operation.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Heat water only with the lid closed, otherwise the automatic
switch-off cannot function. Boiling water could then spray out
over the rim.
► Hot steam clouds may be released. The kettle also becomes
very hot during use. It is always best to wear oven mitts
when handling the kettle.
► Ensure that the appliance is stood stably and vertically
before switching it on. Boiling water can cause an unstable
kettle to fall over.
► Do not open the lid while the water is boiling.
► This appliance may be used by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and/
or knowledge if they are supervised or, in regard to the safe
use of the appliance, have been instructed in its use and
have understood the potential risks.
► This appliance may be used by children aged 8 years or more
if they are supervised or, in regard to the safe use of the appliance, have been instructed in its use and have understood the
potential risks. Cleaning and user maintenance tasks should
not be carried out by children unless they are aged 8 years
or more and are supervised. The device and its connecting cable
must be kept away from children younger than 8 years old.
► Children may not play with the appliance.
► Do not fill the kettle above the MAX mark! Otherwise boiling
water may spill out!
► Do not operate the appliance without the scale filter insert.
► After use, the surfaces of the heating elements will still have
some residual heat.

Preparation
Unpacking
Ƈ Remove all components of the appliance and the operating manual from
the carton.
Ƈ Remove all packing material.
Disposal of the packaging
The packaging protects the appliance against transport damage. The packaging
materials are selected from the point of view of their environmental friendliness
and disposal technology and are therefore recyclable.
The recirculation of packaging into the material circuit saves on raw material and
reduces the amount of waste generated. Dispose of packaging material that is
no longer needed according to the regionally established regulations.
NOTICE
► If possible, preserve the appliance's original packaging during the warranty
period so that, in the event of a warranty claim, you can pack the appliance
ideally for its return.

boil. When done, pour this water away also.
6) Rinse the kettle out with clear water.
The appliance is now ready for use.
Boiling water
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
► Never place the electrical base close to water – this would be a
potentially fatal risk!
WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Always use freshly drawn water. Do not consume any water that has already
stood in the kettle for longer than one hour. Do not reboil water that has cooled
down. Always pour old water away. Microbes could have formed in it!
NOTE

1) Lift the kettle off of the base when filling it!
2) Remove the lid .
NOTE
When filling it, hold the kettle upright. This is the only way to read the
►
markings on the scale correctly.
3) Fill the jug at least as far as the 0.7 l mark, so that the appliance does not
overheat, and no more than the MAX mark to ensure that no boiling water can
spill out.
4) First close the lid and then place the kettle on the base in such a manner
that it sits securely on the base .
5) Now insert the plug into the mains power socket.
6) Push the ON/OFF switch downwards (position “I”) so that it engages.
The ON/OFF switch lights up.
WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► For safety reasons, you should never remove the lid when the water is
boiling or is very hot. There is a risk of scalding.
7) As soon as the water is boiling, the appliance will switch itself off, the
ON/OFF switch clicks upwards and the light goes out.
INFORMATION
► This appliance is fitted with an overheating protector: if the appliance is
switched on accidentally, without any water in the kettle, the appliance
automatically switches itself off.
If, for example due to a non-closed lid the appliance boils dry, the appliance switches off automatically.
In such cases first allow the appliance to cool down before using it again.
Cleaning and Care
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
► Before cleaning, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket!
There is the risk of receiving an electric shock!
► Do not open any part of the housing. There are no user-serviceable elements
inside. An open housing will create the risk of a potentially fatal electrical
shock.
NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids! You could
receive a fatal electric shock if residual liquids come into contact with
live components during operation.
