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’s plug
connections.
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.

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.
Cable winder
A cable winder is arranged on the base of the appliance. This winder allows
you to adjust the length of the cable to your local requirements.
CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Always guide the cable through the corresponding recess on the base ,
which is intended for this purpose, in order to ensure stability.

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!

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.
WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Let the appliance cool sufficiently before cleaning it. Risk of Burns!
WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning materials. These could attack
the upper surfaces and irreparably damage the appliance.
■ Clean the exterior surfaces and the power cable with a slightly damp cloth.
Be sure to dry the appliance well before taking it back into use. For stubborn
soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth. Ensure that there are no detergent
residues in and on the appliance before it is taken back into use.
■ Rinse the inside of the kettle out with clean water.
■ If there are any deposits in the kettle, wipe out the inside surface with a moist
cloth, or use a washing up brush or bottle brush. Then rinse the kettle out
with clean water again.

In the event of scale deposits
Scale deposits on the bottom of the appliance lead to increased energy consumption and reduce the service life of the appliance.
Descale the appliance as soon as scale deposits become apparent.
■ Use a descaler designed for household appliances (e.g. for coffee machines).
Proceed as detailed in the instructions provided for the use of the decalcifying
agent.
■ After descaling, rinse the appliance with lots of clean water.
Inserting/removing the scale filter insert
The spout of the kettle is fitted with a filter insert, which can become clogged with
particles or scale over time. To clean the scale filter insert, simply remove it from
the appliance.
1) Open the lid.
2) Grip the scale filter insert by the strap and pull it out diagonally upwards
toward the rear.
3) Clean the scale filter insert with a slightly moistened dishcloth and under
running water.
4) After cleaning, put the scale filter insert back into the appliance by inserting it into the guide rails and gently pushing it into place. Ensure that the
scale filter insert clicks into place properly.
NOTE
► Alternatively, you can remove the scale filter holder by pushing down the
upper retaining collar from the front and pulling the filter holder backwards.
To reinsert the scale filter holder, push the lower retaining collar into the
appropriate recess and let the upper retaining collar click into the housing.
► If scale deposits have solidified in the scale filter insert , place the filter in
a water-vinegar solution with a ratio of 6:1 for a few hours. The scale deposits will dissolve. Rinse the scale filter insert with plenty of fresh water.
