50 Hz safety socket.
7. Switch on the kettle by pressing the switch. The water level
indicator is illuminated during the entire boiling process.
Switching off/Interrupting Operation
There are two ways to stop/interrupt the boiling process:
• The appliance switches off automatically after the water has
boiled.
• You can press the switch upwards in order to stop or inter-
rupt the boiling process.
WARNING:
• Do not remove the appliance from the base without
switching it off beforehand. As long as the switch is in the
lower position the kettle is switched on.
• Always switch the device off before you remove it from the
base! Please also ensure that it is switched off when you
put it back on the base!
WARNING: DANGER Of SCALDING!

Use Cleaning
WARNING:
• Always turn the device off before cleaning it and remove
the mains plug. Wait until the device has cooled down.
• Never immerse the device or the base in water or other
liquids.
CAUTION:
• Do not use any wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Rinse the water container out with clean water. Then dry it
off with a cloth.
• Clean the housing after use with a slightly damp cloth.
• There is a permanent filter in the spout. In order to clean the
filter, pull it out with the lid open. Rinse out the filter with run-
ning water. Reinsert it, taking note of the guide mechanism.
Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on the
hardness of the water and on how often the appliance is
used.
• If the machine switches off before the water boils, it probably
needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use the
quantities stated in the instructions.

NOTE:
After descaling the device boil fresh water in it several times
(approximately 3-4 times) in order to remove any residues. Do
not consume this water.

After being used without or with too little water the machine
has not cooled down sufficiently.

Allow the machine to cool down for 15 min.
• The machine switches off before the water has boiled.
Possible Cause:
The heated base is coated with too much lime or the circuit
of the plug is overloaded.
Remedy:
Descale the machine as instructed.
Check the mains connection.

Possible Cause:
The lid is not closed or the filter is not inserted.
