Thank you for choosing an appliance from the KRUPS range, which is intended

exclusively for boiling water.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME DESCRIPTION

 Before rst use, rinse the interior of your kettle and boil 1 or 2 lots of water.

 Place the base of your kettle on a stable surface and plug it in.

 Remove the kettle from its base and ll it via the pouring spout (e) (1) or via the open

lid by pressing the lid opening control (d) and lifting the rear section (2).

 Keep the water level within the MAX (1.7 l) and MIN (0.3 l) markings on the indicator

 Check that the lid is rmly closed to prevent any spilling, escape of steam or faulty

operation. Automatic locking is indicated by means of a “click” and the opening

control (d) (3) pops up.

 Switch on by positioning the switch (a) to “I”, and the indicator light (b) will come on (4).

 The appliance switches off automatically once the water reaches boiling point, the

switch (a) returns to position “0” and the indicator light (b) goes out (5).

 You can also stop the kettle at any time during the heating cycle by setting the switch

(a) to position “0”.

 The appliance is protected by a safety device which regulates the heating cycle if the

kettle is switched on with too little water or no water at all. Pour cold water into the

appliance, or wait for a few minutes to restart the heating cycle.

LIMESCALE FILTER (DEPENDING ON MODEL)

Depending on the hardness of the local water, a layer of limescale may form inside your

kettle. If this happens, when the water boils, particles of limescale may be found in

the water you pour. To prevent this from occurring, we have equipped the kettle with a

special limescale lter which retains the particles of scale when you pour water.

 Avoid pouring water too quickly, so as to allow it to ow slowly through the

 To remove the limescale lter, lift the kettle away from its base and allow the appliance

to cool down. Never remove the lter when the appliance is full of hot water.

CAUTION: the safety precautions are part of the appliance. Read them carefully

before using your new appliance for the first time. Keep them in a place where you

can find and refer to them later on.

CLEANING MAINTENANCE

 Unplug the kettle, remove it from its base and allow it to cool down.

 To clean the external surfaces, use a damp cloth with a little washing-up liquid. Rinse

 Never immerse the kettle or the base in water.

Model with limescale filter

 Clean the limescale lter at regular intervals.

 Rinse it in fresh running water, using a soft non-metallic brush.

To allow water to reach boiling point, it is essential that you descale your kettle at regular

intervals. To do this, we advise you to use wine vinegar:

 Pour 1/2 litre water into the kettle.

 Add 1/2 glass of 8° wine vinegar.

 Bring to the boil and leave to work for 15 minutes.

 Then rinse your kettle several times in cold water.

 Boil fresh water before using the kettle again.

Model with limescale filter

This same mixture (water + vinegar) can also be used to descale the limescale lter.

 Pour a little of the hot mixture into a container.

 Soak the lter in the mixture for several minutes, until the particles of tartar trapped

in the pores of the lter have dissolved.

 Then rinse the lter thoroughly in fresh water.

Our guarantee does not cover kettles which do not work or work poorly because

they have not been descaled.

 Press the control (d) to open the lid.

 Swivel the lter and pull it upward to remove it from the pouring spout (6).

 To replace the limescale lter, slide it into the pouring spout and lock it by pushing

The filter is only suitable for this type of kettle.

The absence of a filter will not stop the kettle from working.6
