Instructions

The steel jug can be placed on the base from all angles.

Keep the cord as short as possible. Any excess cord should be rolled up under the base.

IMPORTANT: Before filling the kettle with water, remove from base. Only fill up to the steel jug’s MAX mark on 1.2 L

(see image 2) and push the lid firmly in place.

WARNING: If the electric kettle is filled above the MAX mark see image 2), boiling water may spray out of the kettle when in use.

The firstrsttime the electric kettle is used, water should be boiled three times in the kettle before drinking. This ensures that any minor impurities from production are removed.

The electric kettle is switched on using the on/off switch under the handle (see image 2).

When the water boils (100 °C), the electric kettle automatically switches off and the light goes off. To boil more water, the switch needs to be switched on again. The automatic dry-boil protection prevents accidental boiling when the steel jug is placed back on the base after pouring. Always unplug when the kettle is not in use.

IMPORTANT: Always check the lid is securely in place before switching the kettle on. The lid will click when pressed into place. If the lid is not clicked into place, the kettle’s automatic dry-boil protection will not work optimally. The kettle must not be used without a lid as there is a risk of boiling water spraying out. Should any irregularities occur with the dry-boil protection, such as the kettle switching off before reaching 100 °C or after, leave the kettle to cool; see section on maintenance.

Dry-boil protection

The electric kettle has an inbuilt dry-boil protection, which means the heat element disconnects automatically if the kettle has limescale, if it is switched on without water in it, or if it boils dry. Should this happen, check whether there is a build-up of limescale at the bottom of the kettle and then descale as required. Test the kettle by filling with water and plugging the apparatus in. If the electric kettle continues to disconnect before boiling point, take the kettle and base to the dealer you bought it from for an inspection.

caling fluid. After cleaning with clean water, secure the filter back in its place.

Cleaning the jug

Wipe the outside of the jug with water and detergent using a soft, damp cloth. Dry using a soft cloth or tea towel.

Never use scouring powder or other cleaning agents with an abrasive effect, as this will scratch the surface.

Descaling the kettle

The electric kettle must be descaled regularly and cleaned from limescale sediment:

Normal maintenance. Check weekly that the kettle does not have a limescale build-up. We recommend only boiling as much water as is needed. You then avoid water being left in the kettle, which increases the amount of limescale sediment. You also save electricity.

Descale as required. Use one of the following methods:

· Method 1: To remove mild limescale sediment, once a week fill with clear household vinegar until it covers the bottom of the steel jug. Leave the steel jug for a couple of hours, empty and rinse well. Tip: the descaling process is accelerated by heating the liquid to 50–60 °C.

· Method 2: To remove tough limescale sediment, fill with 0.25 L clear household vinegar and 0.75 L water.

Switch on the kettle and let it boil. Leave it to cool for 15 minutes, then boil again twice.

Once cleaned, boil water in the kettle another three times before drinking. This ensures that any remnants of the descaling liquid are removed from the kettle.

If limescale still remains after descaling, make sure the kettle is descaled more frequently.

IMPORTANT: Only use descaling fluid and household vinegar to descale the kettle. Never use sharp objects to clean or descale the heat plate at the bottom of the steel jug. If the jug is not descaled regularly, it can lead to the heat element or the jug becoming damaged. This type of damage is not covered by the guarantee.

Maintenance

Descaling the filter

The electric kettle is supplied with a removable limescale filter, which is placed in the spout. The filter prevents limescale sediment in the water from pouring into the cup. It is important to clean the limescale filter before too much limescale builds up as otherwise the water cannot pass through the filter and will instead pour out along the sides of the lid, which increases the risk of scolding.

The filter is easily removed from the steel jug by pulling it upwards. Any limescale on the filter can be brushed off under running water with a washing-up brush or cloth.

Alternatively soak the filter in household vinegar or des-

Always use the kettle under supervision.

Never switch the kettle on without water.

Before filling the kettle with water, remove from base.

Never fill with more water than to the jug’s MAX mark (see image 2).

WARNING: If the electric kettle is overfilled, the boiling water can spray out when the kettle is in use.

WARNING: Risk of scolding. Hot steam and boiling water can lead to scolding. Never open the lid when the kettle is in use and take care when pouring out water.

The kettle can only be used with the associated base.

When cleaning and maintaining the kettle, always unplug it from the socket.

To avoid scolding, personal injury or electric shock, never immerse any of the kettle’s parts (with the exception of the limescale filter) in water or other fluids.

Never use the kettle outside.

The kettle can be placed on a flat, stable surface such as a kitchen table.

Never put the kettle on or near hot plates, open fire or similar.

Hold the kettle by the handle, do not touch hot surfaces.

The cord should never hang loose from the table edge or lie on a hot surface.

The kettle and cord should be placed a sensible distance from cookers and other heat sources.
