Before the first use

Please read these operating instructions carefully and keep them in a safe place. Before using for the first time, boil fresh water at least twice in the appliance. Use only water without any additives or ingredients.

Use of the appliance

• Place the base of the jug kettle on a flat surface.
• Open the kettle by pressing the flap on the handle. Then fill in some cold water. The water level can be read off using the water level indicator on both sides of the kettle. Please do not overfill the kettle.
• Close the lid by releasing the flap on the handle.
• Place the kettle on the base.
• Switch on the kettle using the switch on the machine. The control lamp lights up.
• The kettle switches off automatically when the water has boiled. Now disconnect the kettle from the mains power supply. Always hold the lid closed when pouring the water out. Beware of scalding.
  • Take the kettle out of the base, now you can use the hot water.

Cleaning

• Always pull out the plug from the socket before cleaning! Make sure that the jug kettle is cold before you start to clean it.
• The exterior of the machine should be cleaned, if necessary, with a slightly damp cloth without additives.

Decalcification

• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on the hardness of the water and on how often the appliance is used.
  • If the machine switches off before the water boils, it probably needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use the quantities stated in the instructions.
