Set up the glass kettle near a protective ground socket, ensuring it is freely accessible.

Furniture is now coated with a variety of paints and plastics, and is treated with the most diverse of cleaners. It is therefore impossible to preclude some of these substances may contain components which would affect and soften the rubber feet of the housing.

If necessary, place a non-slip, heat resistant pad under the glass kettle.
Please the base station on a suitable surface.
Connect the device to the protective ground socket.
Please boil water 2-3 times prior to first use.

Note: The automatic shut-off will not work if the safety lid 8 is not closed correctly.

Placing the glass kettle on the centre contact station

Your glass kettle features a practical centre contact station. This means you may align the water reservoir in any direction without observing the accuracy of fit.

Boiling water

Note: The ON / OFF switch can only be used if the device is on the base station.

Press the ON/OFF switch down in the position "I". The device is switched on. It will now start heating. Once the water is boiling the auto shut-off will switch the device off. The shut-off time depends on the amount of water added. Note: Based on the function of the device, a few drops of condensation may escape from the discharge openings at the bottom of the device at the end of the boiling cycle. This is not a sign the device is leaking but is due to the auto shut-off and does not affect safety.

Safety ON/OFF switch

Note: Your device features a special safety ON / OFF switch 3 ("lift-off switch-off"). Removing the water reservoir 5 from the base station 4 will trip the ON/OFF switch 3 up and the device will automatically switch off.

If the overheat protection is triggered, proceed as follows:

Unplug from the protective ground socket and allow the device to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, it can be used again.

Manually interrupting the boiling cycle

Slide the ON/OFF switch upward to the "0" position.

Pouring water

Remove the water reservoir from the base station 4 to pour. Opening the safety lid 8 is not required.
