∙ Do not leave the water kettle
unattended during operation. Use only
pure water when fi lling the container
to the desired level, observing the
Min. and Max. markings. Overfi lling
the container may cause danger
from boiling water being forced
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.
∙ Caution! During the boiling process
and when pouring out hot water, the
lid must be kept closed at all times.
∙ 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.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – such materials
are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fi tted 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 must be used only on a
heat-resistant, level surface.
∙ Do not operate the appliance below a
hanging cupboard or similar object; there
is a risk that escaping steam may be
trapped underneath.
∙ The exterior surfaces become hot during
use and will remain so for some time
afterwards.
∙ Do not allow the appliance or its power
cord to come into contact with open
fl ames or any hot surfaces such as hot-
plates.
∙ Do not let the power cord hang free, and
keep the cord well away from hot parts of
the housing.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall
socket,
- in case of any malfunction,
- after use,
- during cleaning.
∙ No responsibility is accepted if damage
results from improper use, or if these
instructions are not complied with.
