INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new appliance,
please read this user guide carefully before
using it for the first time. Take particular note of
the safety precautions. We also recommend that
you keep the instructions for future reference, so
that you can remind yourself of the functions of
your appliance.
SAFETY MEASURES
Normal use of the appliance
• Incorrect use of this appliance may
cause personal injury and damage to the
appliance.
• Use for its intended purpose only. The
manufacturer is not responsible for any
injury or damage resulting from incorrect use
or handling (see also Guarantee Terms).
• For connection to 230 V, 50 Hz only.
• The kettle may only be used with the base
station supplied.
• For domestic use only. Not for outdoor or
commercial use.
• Remove the plug from the socket once you
have finished using the appliance.
• Please note that the appliance will remain
hot for a while after you switch it off. Always
allow it to cool completely before you put it
away or clean it.
• Do not submerge in water or any other
liquid.
• Do not switch the appliance on unless there
is water in it.
• Water level must always be between "MIN"
and "MAX". Check water level using the
internal water level indicator.
• Never leave unattended when in use, and
keep an eye on children.
• Avoid touching the outside of the kettle
when in use, as it becomes hot. Touch the
handle and lid only. Be careful of hot steam
when opening the lid.
• Never touch the appliance or base station if
your hands are wet or damp.
Positioning the appliance
• Always place the appliance on a level, dry,
stable and heat-resistant surface.
• Always place the appliance at the back of
a kitchen counter and at a safe distance
from flammable objects such as curtains,
tablecloths or similar.
• The appliance must not be placed or stored
near other sources of heat.
• Do not cover.
Cord, plug and mains socket
• Check regularly that neither the cord nor
plug is damaged and do not use if there is
any damage, or if it has been dropped on
the floor, dropped in water or damaged in
any other way.
• If the appliance or plug is damaged, it must
be inspected and if necessary, repaired by
an authorised repair engineer, otherwise
there is a risk of electric shock. Never try to
repair the appliance yourself.
• Remove the plug from the socket when
cleaning, or when the device is not in use.
Avoid pulling the cord when removing the
plug from the socket. Instead, hold the plug.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge
of a table/counter, and keep it away from hot
objects and naked flames.
• Check that it is not possible to pull or trip
over the cord or any extension cord.
• Do not wind the cord around the appliance.
• Check the cord in the base fits into one of
the small incisions in the edge to ensure the
base station is stable, and not standing on
the wire.
