The ON/OFF switch (5) can also be used to switch off the kettle before the water boils. SAFETY CUT-OFF The kettle is protected against damage resulting from use with an insufficient volume of water. A safety cut-off will automatically disconnect the power supply if the heating element overheats. Should the kettle ever boil dry during operation, you must leave it to cool for 10 minutes before re-filling it with cold water. The safety cut-off will reset automatically once it has cooled.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

SCALE FILTER Scale, or calcium, is a natural substance that forms when hard water is boiled. The filter serves to retain the calcium in the water kettle.

CLEANING AND REMOVAL OF THE FILTER

It is important to clean the filter regularly. The filter clips into the body and can be removed by pulling it upwards from the body. It can be cleaned by gentle brushing with a soft brush under running water.INSTRUCTION FOR USE

Remove scale using either a proprietary de-scaling product suitable for plastic kettles (following the instructions care- fully), or citric acid. We recommend using citric acid as follows: Boil 1.1l/38oz litre of water, then unplug the kettle and stand it in an empty sink or bowl. Add 55 gm of citric acid crystals gradually, then leave the kettle to stand. As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the kettle and rinse it thoroughly with cold water. Wipe the outside of the kettle thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove all traces of citric acid which may damage the finish. Do not use a more concentrated solution. Ensure that the electrical connections are completely dry before using the kettle. Citric acid crystals are available at most chemists. – Failure to descale may invalidate the guarantee. – Never use chemicals, steel wool or abrasive agents to clean the exterior of the kettle. – Only clean the appliance using a damp cloth. – Never immerse the item in water: remember this is an electrical appliance. Note: Ensure that the mains power supply is switched off when you are not using the kettle. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.8 BISTRO TECHNICAL DATA Nominal voltage EURO 220 – 240V ~50/60Hz Nominal voltage USA 120V/60Hz Nominal power EURO 1500 Watt Nominal power USA 1500 Watt Cord length approx. 70cm/27.5inch Kettle capacity 1.1Liter/38fl.oz Certifications GS, CE, ETL, CETLINSTRUCTION FOR USE
