SAFETY MEASURES

During operation of the appliance always follow the

safety measures:

X Before first use, check whether the voltage

indicated at the appliance is the same as your local

supply.

X Utilize the appliance only for purposes stipu-

lated by the instructions.

X Utilize only attachments supplied with the equipment.

X To avoid electric shock, never immerse the appliance, plug

or power cord into water or other liquids. Place the

appliance into locations from where it cannot fall into water or

other liquids. In case water drops on the equipment, immedi-

ately disconnect it from the mains. Do not operate the machine

that fell into the water. Bring it to the nearest authorized ser-

vice center for maintenance.

X Don’t let children use the appliance without supervision.

X If the power cord plug does not fit to your wall socket,

consult a qualified electrician.

X Use of various adapters may result in damage to the

appliance and termination of warranty.

X Always supervise the equipment while in use.

X To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high volt-

age equipment on the same circuit.

X Always unplug the appliance after use, prior to move-

ment from one place to another or prior to its clean-

ing.

X Never yank the cord to disconnect the appliance from outlet,

instead grasp the plug and pull it to disconnect.

X Do not allow the cord or the machine itself to contact with hot

surfaces.

X Position the equipment and the cord so that nobody is able to

accidentally pull the cord and overturn the equipment.

X Do not operate the equipment if it has a damaged power cord

or plug. Do not attempt to repair the machine by yourself.

Replacement of the power cord and the plug should be car-

ried out only in the authorized service center.

X Never attempt to dismantle the appliance yourself; improper

assembly might result in electric shock during the subsequent

utilization of the equipment. All repairs shall be carried

out only by authorized service centers.

X Do not use the device in areas where combustible gas mixtures

or inflammable liquid vapors could present in the air, or in

areas with inflammable air-borne dust or fibers.

X This equipment is intended only for household use only; it is not

for commercial or industrial use.

X Please follow all the requirements of this guide.

X Do not use the appliance if it has mechanical defects (dents,

5

ENGLISH

cracks etc.), get it checked by the nearest authorized service

center.

SPECIAL SAFETY MEASURES

X Do not touch hot surfaces of the appliance. Do

not touch outer surfaces of the kettle with the ex-

ception of the heat insulated handle, when water

is boiling or with hot water inside the device.

X Allow kettle to cool prior to its cleaning and

storing.

X Disconnect the appliance from the electricity

supply during prolonged storage, prior to filling it with water/

emptying it or prior to moving it from one place to another.

X The appliance shall always operate on heat resistant, horizon-

tal and dry surfaces.

X To avoid being burnt by hot vapor always close the lid tightly

prior to switching the device on. Avoid exposure to hot vapor.

WARNING! Never open the lid immediately before

of after boiling temperature is reached.

X Prior to switching the kettle on make sure the water level stays

not lower than the minimal mark and not higher than the

maximum mark at the water gauge. The kettle is protected

against overheating if switched on without water. In case of

overheating, an automatic safety cut out device will switch it off

in case of absence or excessively little quantity of water inside

the kettle. If the safety device is activated, allow the kettle to

cool down prior to boiling water in it. The kettle would not

switch on if it’s too hot. WARNING! Frequent switching

the kettle on without water might result in the safety

device failure, that is why prior to switching the kettle

on always check the water level. Always make sure

the water level in the kettle is not too low.

X Always switch the kettle off prior to lifting it from the base.

X Use the kettle only with the supplied base.

X Do not fill the hot kettle with cold water or vice versa. WARN-

ING! Avoid sharp temperature fluctuations when fill-

ing the kettle with water.

X Connect the device only to the electrical supply with protec-

tive earthing. If your socket has no protective earthing, con-

tact a qualified specialist. Do not modify the plug and do not

use cord adapters. WARNING! Electric hazard might

occur if the kettle is plugged into the unearthed power

supply.

X Clean the heating element of the kettle more often to descale

it. Remember that use of the heavily scaled kettle might result

in its malfunction. WARNING! Descale the kettle using

only specially designed cleaning agents.

X Before turning the kettle on, make sure that the lid is closed;

otherwise the kettle will not turn off after boiling.

X After use of the appliance, the base of the kettle might be wet.

It is a normal condition of operation, caused by escaping steam,

used to activate the kettle’s automatic turning off function.

X Do not tilt the filled kettle backwards, since water can spill

6

through the steam vent. If this happens, the kettle should be

wiped before turning it on.

X Do not take the electric cord out of the socket during operation

of the appliance. You should first turn it off.

X After using the appliance let it cool for a few minutes. After

that you can boil water in it again.

Wash internal surface of kettle with warm

soapy water, rinse carefully and wipe dry. In

case of unusual odor fill the kettle up to a maxi-

mum level with vinegar solution (1 element of

9% vinegar per 20 elements of water), let the

kettle soak for an hour. Then wash out the kettle with tap water,

boil water in the kettle and pour it out.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the kettle with power base on dry hori-

zontal surface.

2. Lift the kettle off the base (8), open the lid

(2) by pushing the button (3) and fill the kettle

with water.

3. Make sure the water level stays between

the minimum and the maximum marks on the

water gauge (5). Do not switch on an empty kettle.

4. Close the lid (2) and replace the kettle on the base (8).

5. Plug the cord into the outlet with the same voltage as indicated

on the appliance

off the appliance when water reaches desirable

temperature.

7. While discharging water from the kettle tilt it slightly and gradu-

ally. Do not forget it holds hot water inside.

8. If the water cools down, and you wish to boil it or heat it again,

just switch the kettle on again.

CLEANING AND CARE

1. Prior to kettle cleaning or storing unplug it

from the mains and allows it to fully cool down.

2. In order to avoid electric hazards, do not

immerse the kettle’s housing (1), its base (8)

and electric cord into water. These components

of the device can be cleaned with a slightly

damp cloth without any cleansers.

3. In order to clean the filter (4) remove it and wash its exterior

with running water. The filter needs to be washed irrespective

of scale formation on it.

USEFUL ADVICE

In hard water areas it is important to do the

de-scaling regularly to keep the kettle in good work-

ing condition, because too much scale inside may

cause the kettle not to work. For the best perfor-

mance of your kettle, decalcify the unit from time

to time. The frequency depends on the hardness

of your tap water and how many times you have

used the kettle (e.g. once for 200 uses). If the water in your house

is hard we advise you to use filtered water as it will slightly de-

crease scale formation.

2 methods of decalcification:

1. Using 9% white vinegar:

- Fill the kettle with 0.5 liter of hot water and add two table-

spoonful of 9% white vinegar.

- Let the kettle soak for 1 hour without boiling.

- Stir the liquid in the kettle from time to time.

2. Citric acid:

- Mix 25g of citric acid with 0.5 liter of boiling water.

- Pour the mixture in the kettle.

- Leave to soak for 15 minutes.

- Empty your kettle and rinse it two or three times with tap cold

water.

- Repeat the process if needed.

Any other servicing should be performed only by an autho-

rized service center.

The appliance should not be stored while hot or plugged in.

When not in use, allow the kettle to cool, then put it back into the

box and store out of reach of children in a safe, dry place.
