– Always ensure that you pour out boiling water slowly and
carefully, taking care not to tilt the spout too rapidly.
– To prevent scalding, avoid coming into contact with the
steam escaping from the opening in the lid when the
water is being boiled or just after the kettle has switched
off. Be careful when opening the lid, if the kettle is still
hot and you wish to refill it with water.
– Boiling water can cause burns.
– Move the appliance with extreme care when it contains
hot water.
– Do not forcefully locate the switch in the ON position, or
make any authorised changes to the switch in order to
make it stay in the ON position. This could lead to steam
escaping from around the lid, damaging the automatic
switch-off mechanism and possibly causing bodily injury.
– Never immerse the item in water, remember this is an
electrical appliance.
– Only clean the appliance using a damp cloth.
– To disconnect, turn any control to «off» then remove
plug from wall outlet.
– Always unplug the appliance by holding the plug, not the
cord.
– Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or
touch hot surfaces.
– Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet when the
kettle is not in use and before cleaning. Allow the kettle
to cool before cleaning it.
– Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or
plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been
damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest
authorized service facility for examination, repair or
adjustment.

ance as special tools are required for this. To ensure
continued safety of the appliance, if the cable needs to be
repaired or exchanged, have this carried out exclusively
by a customer service workshop authorised by the manu-
facturer.
