Frequently Asked Questions - WK 186.07 Petra Electric

How to use the kettle for the first time?

Before first use, carefully clean the inside of the pot. Open the lid by pressing the button on top of the handle, fill with water up to the Max mark, close the lid, place the pot on the base and plug in the appliance. Press the power button located under the handle. Discard the water from the first use.

Why does the kettle stop before boiling?

This may be due to excessive limescale deposits at the bottom of the pot or insufficient water quantity. Descale the appliance and ensure you fill at least the minimum level.

How to descale the kettle?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool. Fill with 1 to 2 cups of durgol® express and let it sit until limescale dissolves. Then rinse thoroughly with cold water. Do not heat the descaling solution.

What to do if the kettle does not turn on?

After operation with no water or little water, the appliance may be in thermal safety. Let it cool completely. Also ensure the lid is properly closed. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Can I open the lid during operation?

No, never open the lid while heating. Boiling water could splash. To refill, open the lid only when the appliance is off and cooled.

How to clean the inside of the kettle?

Let the appliance cool down, then clean the inside with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Never immerse the pot or base in water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.

What is the maximum capacity of the kettle?

The maximum capacity is indicated by the 'Max' mark inside the pot. Do not exceed this level to avoid splashing boiling water. The approximate capacity is 1.7 liters.

Is the power cord removable?

No, the power cord is fixed. You can wrap the excess length under the base for convenient storage.

How does the automatic shut-off work?

As soon as the water reaches boiling, the automatic shut-off cuts the power. You can also stop manually by pressing the power button. The appliance also turns off if you lift the pot from its base.

What to do if the kettle leaks?

Check that the lid is properly closed. Condensation water may come out of the vents under the handle, which is normal. In case of major leakage, stop using and contact customer service.

Start-up

Thoroughly clean the pot prior to first use. Open the lid by pressing on the button on the top of the handle.

The length of the connecting line that is not needed can be reeled in on the bottom of the base section. Always keep the line away from the hot pot.

Connect the plug to a grounded socket.

Only fill the water up to the max mark. It is located in the pot opposite the spout.

Close the lid. The automatic CookStop only operates reliably by this method.

Place the pot in any position onto the base. Only now press the button below the handle.

The push button switch only snaps in, if the pot is located on the base.

Do not use the water from the first cooking process to prepare food.

Automatic shutoff

The automatic cook stop switches the appliance off a short time after the water boils. If the pot is filled with only a little water, the shutoff period is extended.

If only warm water is desired, the heating process can be discontinued at any time by pressing the push button switch. It is also automatically switched off, if the pot is lifted from the base.

Some condensate may drain on the edge of the base on the

bottom of the handle based on the function of the drainage holes. This is technically conditional and will not jeopardize the safety of the appliance.

Safety system

A thermostat protects the boiler from overheating in case of an accidental operation without water by switching off the appliance.

The pot must be cooled off prior to filling with water.

If the first thermostat fails due to improper use, an additional thermostat provides reliable protection.

Cleaning and service

Pull the plug and cool the appliance. Do not immerse the appliance in water, but wipe with a damp cloth to which a dishwashing agent has been added and then wipe dry. Do not use sharp and abrasive cleaning agents.

The pot consists of stainless steel. If rust spots are seen regardless, these are initially only deposits adhering to the surface. They should be removed immediately with stainless steel cleaner.

Decalcification

Calcium deposits result in energy losses and reduce the service life of the appliance. It switches off early, if the calcium coating is too thick. It is then difficult to remove. Decalcify the pot routinely.

We recommend using durgol® express. It is very effective and gentle to materials.

You may obtain it where you bought the appliance; directly from a select dealer or you can order it directly from petra-electric.

Disconnect the appliance from the socket and let cool prior to decalcification. Fill in 1 to 2 cups of durgol® express and let the appliance stand until the calcium coating is removed from the bottom. Then fill the appliance with cold water past the calcium edge and let stand for 15 minutes. Then pour it out and thoroughly rinse with cold water.

Do not heat the solution during decalcification.

Caution, warranty compensation does not exist for damages that occur due to non-compliance.

Reasons for malfunctions

• The appliance switches off prior to cooking

The bottom of the pot is excessively calcified, not enough water has been filled in

• The appliance does not switch off

The lid is not closed

• The appliance cannot be switched on

The appliance is not sufficiently cooled after an operation without or with an insufficient amount of water.

If the malfunction cannot be resolved, the appliance must be repaired.
