• To protect against risk of electrical shock do not put in water or other liquid.

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

• Unplug from power outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

• The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury to persons.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not let power cord or the extension cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

• Do not place place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

• Always close lid from the kettles when in use.

• Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing cycles.

• The USA–version of this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug doesn’t fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still doesn’t fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

• Do not yank on any cord to disconnect.

• Never plug appliance in where water floods the area.

• Place the appliance on a firm and stable surface.

• Ensure that the appliance is not placed so close to the edge of the table, worktop, etc. that it may be knocked off. Remember that the kettle is filled with hot water.

• Never immerse the appliance in water or in any other liquid.

• Do not use the appliance if it is damaged or if the cord is damaged. Send it back to our service department. A damaged cord can only be replaced by our service department, as special tools are needed for this.

• Do not use any abrasive or scouring cleaning agents. CLEANING FIRST UNPLUG THE APPLIANCE AND LET THE CAN COOL DOWN! The outside can be wiped with a damp cloth. A dry cloth should always be used to clean the base.7 DESCALING Use a descaling agent that is suitable for domestic appliances such as coffee–makers. Use the agent according to the instructions on the packaging. Do not switch the can on when descaling, but allow the agent to soak in when cold. Rinse the can several times with clean water after descaling. BEFORE USE Read these instructions fully before use and keep them for future reference. Check whether the mains voltage in your home corresponds to that of the appliance. Use only an earthed socket for this appliance. The cordless kettle is made of stainless steel and will bring a maximum of 1 litre of water to the boil in a few minutes. The can is extremely convenient to use, as it can be removed from the base. It has a safety lock on the lid, a pilot lamp, a thermostat and a boiling–dry protection. Place the PRINCESS CLASSIC CORDLESS WATERKETTLE on a stable, firm table or worktop so that the appliance cannot be easily knocked over.

The kettle should only be used for boiling water and is not suitable for boiling other liquids or for other ingredients. First boil a full can of water to clean the can. Throw this water away. Always fill the can to a point between the minimum and maximum indication marks. If the water level is too low the can will switch off too early, whereas if the water level is too high the water will boil over. When filling the can, always remove it from the base to avoid spilling water on the base. Switch the can on by pressing the on–off switch under the handle. The pilot lamp will light up. As soon as the water boils, the on–off button will automatically switch to the “off” position. If desired, the water can be brought to the boil again by pressing the button a second time. However, this should not be done for at least 30 seconds after the can has automatically switched off. If the can is switched on by accident when it is empty, the boiling–dry protection will automatically switch it off again. The boiling–dry protection will cool down again when the can is filled with water. You can then use the kettle in the normal way. N.B.:

• Remove the (jug)kettle from the base after it has turned off (either automatically or manually).

• Do not fill the can beyond the indication mark “MAX”, otherwise the water may boil over

• This kettle should only be used with the foot supplied.8
