Please read through this user manual thoroughly before
using your Solis "Vario Temp Kettle" water boiler so that
you become familiar with your appliance and can use it safe-
ly. We thoroughly recommend that you keep these instruc-
tions and, if you pass the appliance on, that you also hand
these instructions to the new owner.

For your own safety, please observe the following safety
measures when using elec trical appliances:
1. To avoid electric shock, neither the appliance base nor the
power cord and plug resp. the electrical contacts in the bottom
of the kettle and on the appliance base must come into contact
with water or any other liquids. Water can enter the housing
and damage the appliance! Risk of electric shock! Should the
appliance base resp. the power cord or plug resp. the electri-
cal contacts in the bottom of the kettle and on the appliance
base come into contact with liquids, use dry rubber gloves to
immediately pull the power plug from the power socket. Do
not use the appliance before having it checked for functionality
and safety by Solis or a Solis approved service centre.
2. The kettle itself must not be submerged in water or other
liquids and has to be completely dry on the outside and bottom
when being placed on the appliance base.
3. Do not operate the appliance resp. pull or connect the plug
with wet or moist hands or feet.
4. Before using the appliance, check that the voltage stated on
the type plate of your appliance matches your mains voltage.
5. Place the appliance while in function on a heat and moisture
resistant, level, stable, clean and dry surface, like a table or
work top. A minimum distance of 20 cm to walls, curtains or
heat resp. steam sensitive or flammable objects has to be kept
at all times. We recommend not using the appliance under
heat and moisture sensitive furniture resp. hanging cupboards.

The room should be well ventilated to allow the steam to
escape quickly.
6. Never use the water boiler near the edge of a table. Make
sure it is kept out of the reach of children and pets to prevent
it from being pulled down and damaged with the escaping
boiling water causing scaldings.
7. Do not leave the power cable hanging over table edges so that
it can be pulled. Make sure that neither the power cord nor
the plug does not come into contact with hot surfaces, such as
hotplates or a radiator, or that it comes into contact with the
appliance. Fully unwind the cord before use.
8. Keep the appliance away from hot gas, hot ovens and other
heat-emitting appliances or heat sources. Do not use the appli-
ance near flammable or explosive liquids or gases. Never use
the appliance on a hot or wet surface. Never place the appli-
ance near moisture, heat and naked flames. Keep the appli-
ance away from moving parts or appliances.
9. Never carry the appliance by the power cord and do not place
anything on the power cord. Never pull on the power cord to
disconnect the appliance from the power mains. Only pull on
the plug.
10. We recommend that you do not use an extension cable with
this appliance. Do not connect the power plug to a plug board
to which other appliances are connected. Do not place the
appliance directly underneath a power socket.
11. Unplug the appliance when it is not in use or unattended and
before cleaning. We recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD safety switch) to ensure additional protection
during the use of electrical appliances. It is advisable to use a
safety switch with a rated residual operating current of 30 mA
maximum. For professional advice consult an electrician.
12. Do not make any adjustments to the appliance, cable, plug or
accessories.
