Use

The kettle consists of two parts: the kettle itself and a separate, live base, on which the kettle can be placed from any angle. Only use the kettle with the corresponding base. If necessary, wind up a part of the cord under the base and make sure that the cord is as short as possible in order that children cannot grab hold of it. Plug the switch to a wall outlet.

Press the button on top of the handle to open the lid of the kettle. The cover is opened in two stages to avoid water splashing during opening. Pour water in the kettle, see the markings on the outer level indicator and close the lid. Do not exceed the max marking (1 liter) and do not pour water less than the minimum marking and do not pour water when the kettle is on the base.

Position the kettle with water on the base and switch on the appliance on the switch under the handle and the signal lamp will go on. The water from the first two boilings should not be used, as there may be impurities from the production of the kettle. Note that the housing of the kettle gets very hot during use. The kettle automatically switches off when the water is boiling and the signal lamp will go off.

WARNING! If there is too much water in the kettle (i.e. water exceeds the MAX marking) boiling water may burst out. The max level of the kettle is 1,7 liter and should not be exceeded. Never switch on the kettle without water.

Every time the kettle is removed from the base, the kettle switches off and the signal lamp goes out. In this way, unintended heating is avoided when the kettle is put back on the base. If the kettle is shortly removed from the base in order e.g. to add water, remember to switch it on again. Always unplug from the mains supply when the appliance is not in use.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the lid is always properly closed, when the kettle is in use. If not, the automatic switch-off function will not work and there is furthermore a risk that boiling water will splash out. The automatic switch-off function of the kettle is very sensitive. If the switching off becomes irregular (the kettle switches off too soon or too late), the kettle needs to be descaled as this might be the reason, see the section about descaling below.

Scale build-up/dry boiling protection

The kettle comprises a double protection system: If the kettle has severe scale build-up at the bottom, if it is switched on without water or boils dry, the dry boiling protection system is activated and the kettle switches off automatically. In such case, check for lime in the bottom of the kettle and descale if necessary. Try to switch the kettle on again with water in it.

If the kettle continues to switch off before the water reaches the point of boiling, contact the shop of purchase.

Lime filter

The kettle has a lime filter in the spout. The filter is easily removed for cleaning by opening the lid of the jug and gently pulling the filter out and then lifting it up. Brush the filter with a washing-up brush under running water or place the filter in descaling agent for a few minutes when descaling the jug. Press the filter into place from the inside of the spout afterwards.

It is very important that the filter is cleaned and does not scale again, as if not water cannot pass through the filter, but will run off along the sides, which involves a risk of burning.

Descaling and cleaning

Clean the kettle at regular intervals for scale and be aware of the following:

• Only boil the necessary amount of water – to save current. Empty the kettle after each use. This will reduce the amount of scale, and coffee and tee, brewed on fresh water, have a better taste.
• Check for limescale deposits regularly. To remove, pour in enough vinegar (5-12% acetic acid) to cover the bottom and allow to stand for a few hours. Empty and rinse with plenty of water before use.
• Check the status of scale often. If there is scale in the kettle, use one of the ordinary descaling means – such as e.g. citric acid. Do not use ordinary household vinegar for descaling of the kettle. It is extremely important to carefully follow the instructions of the product and that the product is poured out after the duration of action and that the water used for the first couple of boiling after descaling is not used.
• If there is still a lot of scale left on the heating unit, descale the kettle again and make sure to descale regularly in the future.

Important! Never use sharp items to remove limestone, as these may damage the appliance. If the appliance is not descaled at regular intervals, the appliance may become unusable. Such damage is not covered by the warranty.

The housing of the kettle can be cleaned with a damp cloth and wiped dry. Do not use scouring or etching detergents. Neither the appliance nor the contact plate is dishwasher-proof.

Disposal of the appliance

Legislation requires that all electrical and electronic equipment shall be collected for reuse and recycling. Electrical and electronic equipment marked with the symbol indicating separate collection of such equipment must be returned to a municipal waste collection point.
