GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (3-PRONG PLUG)

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

• The extension cord should be a grounding type 3-wire cord.
• The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.

BEFORE THE FIRST OPERATION

For the perfect taste, operate the cordless water kettle with fresh water in order to clean any residue left from the manufacturing process. When the appliance has cooled down, repeat the process 3 times with fresh water, before rinsing.

OPERATION

• Always remove the kettle from the power base (1) before filling it or before any operation.
• Open the lid (5) by pressing on the lid release button (4) and fill the tank with fresh water, paying attention not to fill under the minimum mark and above the maximum mark indicated on the water window of the kettle (7).
• Close the lid by pressing it down until it you hear a click. Make sure it closes correctly.
• Make sure the spout filter is well in position, as else the auto-shut off feature would not work.
• Put the kettle onto the power base (1), plug into the wall socket, and switch on (2). The pilot light (8) will come on, indicating that the appliance is operating. If it does not come on, check if the kettle is correctly positioned on the base and check if the base is plugged in. Do not open the lid while the water is heating or boiling.
• The cordless water kettle will switch off automatically when the water has boiled. However, you can stop the appliance anytime by putting the switch in off position or lifting the kettle from the power base.

CAUTION: Make sure that the lid is closed and the filter is correctly and securely fitted before switching on the appliance. Failure to do so will cause the kettle not to switch off.

• For instant re-boiling, wait until water has cooled down and switch on the appliance again.
• The kettle will not re-boil until the switch is pressed again.
• The kettle may be stored on the power base when not in use.
  • Always disconnect the power supply when not in use.

- When pouring a large quantity of hot water, pour slowly and do not incline the kettle past the horizontal line to avoid burns and injuries.

SAFETY CUT-OUT

• This cordless water kettle is protected with an automatic safety device, if accidentally switched on without water. Please bear in mind that only the thermostat is switched off in case of overheat, whereas the switch stays in ON-position.
• If this happens, switch off the appliance by putting the switch in OFF position and wait about 10 minutes for the element to cool. Then pour in sufficient cold water to cover the element. This will reset the safety device.
  • The kettle may then be used as normal.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the appliance is unplugged from the supply socket and fully cooled down.
• To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
• Never use abrasive products, powders or scouring pads.
• Under no circumstances shall the jug kettle or its power base be immersed in water.
• To remove mineral deposits from the water kettle, use products made especially available for this purpose. Make sure to use a type recommended for kettles or coffee makers. Follow the guidelines as recommended by the manufacturer of the decalcifying solution. Rinse well.

FILTER

• Your appliance is provided with a mesh filter. This filter is factory pre-installed before the spout.
• The filter is placed in front of the spout. Filter should be rinsed clean regularly. For this, press the filter out, rinse under water, and put it back in into position once clean.
