1. Read all instructions carefully, even if you are familiar with the appliance.
2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
3. Before connecting the kettle, check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds with the mains
voltage in your home. If this is not the case, contact your dealer and do not use the kettle.
4. Switch off and unplug from the outlet before filling, emptying or cleaning, or when not in use.

burner or in a heated oven).
7. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces.
8. Never yank on the cord as this may damage the cord and eventually cause a risk of electric shock.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR KETTLE
Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth or sponge. Remove stubborn spots with a cloth
moistened with mild liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or powders. Never immerse the
kettle in water or other liquids.
From time to time depending on the nature of your water supply, a lime scale deposit is naturally formed and
can be found mostly adhered to the heating element and reduces the heating capacity. The amount of lime-
scale deposited (and subsequently the need to clean or descale) largely depends on the water hardness in
your area and the frequency with which the kettle is used.
Limescale is not harmful to your health. But if poured into your beverage, it can give a powdery taste to your
drink. Therefore, the kettle should be descaled periodically as indicated below:
DESCALING
Descale the kettle regularly. With normal use, at least twice a year.
1. Fill the kettle up to „MAX“ with a mixture of one part ordinary vinegar and two parts water. Switch on and
wait for the appliance to switch off automatically.
2. Let the mixture remain inside the kettle overnight.
3. Throw the mixture away next morning.
4. Fill the kettle with clean water up to „MAX“ and boil again.
5. Throw away this boiled water to remove any remaining scale and vinegar.
6. Rinse the inside of the kettle with clean water.
360° CONNECTOR BASE
The 360° connector between the kettle and its base means that the kettle can be located at any point on the
base. This is ideal for left and right-handed users as the kettle can be positioned conveniently on your kitchen
counter.
