Important safety instructions

Danger to certain categories of persons

- This product can be used by children aged from 8 years and older and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

- Children must not be permitted to carry out any cleaning or maintenance work on the appliance unless they are supervised and at least 8 years of age.

- The appliance and its power cord must be kept well away from children under 8 at all times.

- Children must not be permitted to play with the appliance.

- Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from children – these materials are a potential source of danger, e.g. of

suffocation.

Risk of electric shock

The device is powered by electricity, and so there is always a risk of electric shock. The following precautions are therefore to be taken:

- Every time the appliance is used, the main body including the power cord as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, or if excessive force has been used to pull the power cord, it must no longer be used: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.

- The appliance should only be connected to a socket installed in accordance with the regulations. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating label.

- Always remove the plug from the wall socket

- after use, - in case of any malfunction, - before cleaning the appliance.

- When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull on the power cord; always grip the plug itself.

- Do not touch the plug with wet hands.

- Warning! The electrical connections in the base must be protected at all times against possible contact with water.

• Do not clean the water container and the base with liquids and do not immerse them; do not clean under running water.
• The kettle may only be operated with the base provided with the appliance.
• Never remove the water container from the base (or replace it) while the appliance is switched on.

Danger of burns and scalding

• The exterior surfaces become hot during use and will remain so for some time afterwards.
• Only operate the kettle under supervision and with pure water. It is essential to observe the minimum (0.2 l) and maximum (0.5 l) markings for the filling

quantity. Overfilling may cause boiling water to splash out.

• Also beware of the danger of scalding from hot steam being emitted. Therefore, do not touch any parts of the appliance except the handle during use.
• During the boiling process and when pouring out hot water, the lid must be kept closed at all times.
• Descale the appliance regularly. With heavily calcified appliances, there is a risk of water splashing out of the spout.
