NOTE: The kettle will automatically switch ‘Off’ once the water has boiled and a bell rings,
but the automatic switching off only works out with the lid closed.
5. Ensure, the lid is firmly closed. Then lift the kettle by the handle from the power base
and pour the water. When moving the kettle, ensure to hold the kettle level, especially when
filled to the maximum level.
NOTE: Use caution when pouring boiling water from the kettle. Do not pour the water too
quickly, as boiling water could splash.
6. To reboil, it may be necessary to wait for about 1 or 2 minutes to allow the kettle to cool
down and the control to reset.
7. Switch OFF the kettle (power switch position ‘red’) and unplug the power connector.
Pour out any remaining water.
Do not leave remaining water cool down to room temperature in the kettle to avoid any
excessive accumulation of mineral deposits on the interior of the water container and water
gauge.
The kettle may be stored on its power base, when not in use to protect the connector pins
from dust and splashes. The power switch must be switched ‘OFF’ and the appliance must
be unplugged from the power supply, when not in use.
WARNING: Always switch OFF the kettle and unplug from power supply, when the kettle is
not in use, to avoid risk of fire and electric shock. DO NOT leave the power base unattended
with the power plug connected to the power supply.
Dry-out Protection
If there is not enough water in the kettle during operation, the boil dry cut-out switches off
the heating element automatically. To reset the appliance:
1. Switch OFF the kettle and wait some minutes for the heating elements to cool down. Then
lift off the lid and slowly fill with water. Always keep the water level between the minimum
and maximum water level mark (750 to 1600/MAX) during operation.
2. Close the lid, replace the kettle on the power base and switch on the kettle.
For additional safety your kettle is fitted with an additional thermal cut out. In the event of
overheating, the kettle will automatically shutdown to prevent further damage. In this case,
take your kettle to an authorised service centre for inspection and repair.
WARNING: Do not attempt to operate the appliance after shutdown by the thermal cut
out. Any maintenance, repair and operation other than described in these instructions must
be performed at an authorised service centre to avoid risk of electric shock, fire or injuries
to persons.
