Frequently Asked Questions - SWKE 2200 A1 SILVERCREST

What is the capacity of the SWKE 2200 A1 kettle?

The maximum capacity is 1.7 liters. Do not exceed the MAX mark to avoid boiling water overflow.

Can I heat liquids other than water?

No, the appliance is exclusively designed for heating drinking water. Using other liquids may damage the appliance and poses a risk.

How to descale the kettle?

Use a suitable descaler for food containers (e.g., coffee machine descaler). First remove the descaling filter, then follow the product instructions. Rinse thoroughly with clear water after descaling.

How to clean the descaling filter?

Remove the filter by pressing its tab and pulling it inward. Clean it with a damp cloth or rinse under running water. For stubborn limescale, soak it in a water-vinegar solution (6:1) for a few hours.

Does the kettle turn off automatically?

Can I use the kettle without the descaling filter?

No, the instruction manual states that the appliance should always be used with the descaling filter inserted. This ensures safe operation and reduces limescale deposits.

How long is the warranty valid?

Can I open the lid while the water is heating?

It is not recommended to open the lid during heating or when the water is very hot due to the risk of scalding. Wait until the appliance is turned off and cooled down.

Preparation

Unpacking

Remove all components of the appliance and the operating manual from the carton.

◆ Remove all packing material.

Disposal of the packaging

The packaging protects the appliance against transport damage. The packaging materials are selected from the point of view of their environmental friendliness and disposal technology and are therefore recyclable.

The recirculation of packaging into the material circuit saves on raw material and reduces the amount of waste generated. Dispose of packaging material that is no longer needed according to the regionally established regulations.

NOTICE

If possible, preserve the appliance's original packaging during the warranty period so that, in the event of a warranty claim, you can pack the appliance ideally for its return.

Initial use

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!

▶ Always and only use freshly drawn mains water in the kettle! Do not consume any water that is not certified as potable. If you do, you are taking a risk with your health!

- the appliance, plug and power cable are in a serviceable condition and ...

- all packaging materials have been removed from the appliance.

1) Open the lid by pressing on the release button ①.
2) Fill the appliance with water up to the MAX marking and let it come to a full boil once - as described in the next section.
3) After it has boiled, pour this water away.

5) Fill the appliance with water once again, up to the MAX marking, and then bring it to boil. When done, pour this water away also.

The appliance is now ready for use.

Boiling water

▶ Never place the electrical base ④ close to water – this would be a potentially fatal risk!

ARNING - RISK OF INJURY!

For safety reasons you should not open the lid when the water is boiling or extremely hot. There is a risk of scalding.

ARNING - RISK OF INJURY!

▶ Always use freshly drawn water. Do not consume any water that has already stood in the kettle for longer than one hour. Do not reboil water that has cooled down. Always pour old water away. Microbes could have formed in it!

NOTE

▶ Always ensure that the ON/OFF switch ③ is turned to „0” when the mains plug is unplugged and the device is standing on the base ④. If not, the device could heat up unintendedly as soon as the mains plug is plugged in again.

1) Lift the kettle off of the base when filling it!
2) Press the unlocking button ① and open the lid.

NOTE

▶ When fi lling it, hold the kettle upright. This is the only way to read the markings on the scale ② correctly.

3) Fill the kettle...

• to at least the MIN mark, so that the appliance does not overheat,
• to maximum the MAX mark, so that boiling water cannot spill out.

4) First close the lid, then place the kettle on the base ④, so that it sits securely on the base ④.
5) Now insert the plug into the mains power socket.
6) Press the ON/OFF switch ③ downwards (I) so that it clicks in.
7) The control lamp in the ON/OFF switch ③ indicates that the appliance is now heating up.
8) As soon as the water is boiling, the appliance will switch itself off, the ON/OFF switch ③ clicks upwards and the light goes out.

INFORMATION

This appliance is fitted with an overheating protector: if the appliance is switched on accidentally, without any water in the kettle, the appliance automatically switches itself off. If, for example due to a non-closed lid the appliance boils dry, the appliance switches off automatically. In such cases first allow the appliance to cool down before using it again.

Cleaning and Care

▶ Before cleaning, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket! There is the risk of receiving an electric shock!
▶ Do not open any part of the housing. There are no user-serviceable elements inside. An open housing will create the risk of a potentially fatal electrical shock.

NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids! You could receive a fatal electric shock if residual liquids come into contact with live components during operation.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!

▶ Let the appliance cool sufficiently before cleaning it. Risk of Burns!

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

▶ Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning materials. These could attack the upper surfaces and irreparably damage the appliance.

- Clean the exterior surfaces and the power cable with a slightly damp cloth. Be sure to dry the appliance well before taking it back into use. For stubborn soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth. Ensure that there are no detergent residues in and on the appliance before it is taken back into use.

■ Rinse the inside of the kettle out with clean water.

If there are any deposits in the kettle, wipe out the inside surface with a moist cloth, or use a washing up brush or bottle brush. Then rinse the kettle out with clean water again.

In the event of scale deposits

Scale deposits on the bottom of the appliance lead to increased energy consumption and reduce the service life of the appliance.

Descale the appliance as soon as scale deposits become apparent.

Before descaling, remove the scale filter insert ⑥ (see chapter "Inserting/ removing the scale filter insert").

■ Use a descaler designed for household appliances (e.g. for coffee machines) Proceed as detailed in the instructions provided for the use of the decalcifying agent.

■ After descaling, rinse the appliance with lots of clean water.
