Safety System; Cleaning And Care; Conditions Of Guarantee - Tristar WK-1312 Mode D'emploi

SAFETY SYSTEM

•
As the appliance does not have an "on/off" –switch, you should unplug the kettle immediately
after it has reached the boiling point. The indicator lights when the appliance is working.
•
The integrated safety cut-off prevents overheating of the kettle should it be operated
without water or allowed to boil dry. If the safety cut-off is activated, unplug the kettle and
allow it to cool down. The appliance can only operate again when it has cooled down
sufficiently.
•
In the event that the appliance becomes overheated because the water boils away a thermal
fuse breaks mains contact to ensure that your power supply is not disrupted.
Safety Standard
The appliance complies with TÜV-GS standard.
OPERATION
• Before using the kettle for the first time, clean the interior, fill with water, add some vinegar and
bring to the boil. Do not use this water for food preparation.
• Open the lid and add the required quantity of water. Close the lid before connecting the appliance
to the mains.
• Important note: always fill the kettle above the "Min" indicator and never above the "Max" indicator.
(The heating element must always be covered by water before the appliance is turned on.)
• Insert the plug in the mains socket
• When the kettle is plugged in, the RED light is illuminated.
• Do not open the lid during the boiling process.
• When the water comes to the boil at 90C or above, the kettle has to be switched-off by pulling the
plug out.

CLEANING AND CARE

- The kettle should be decalcified at regular intervals depending on the hardness of your local
water supply. You can do this with decalcify products which are generally available in the shops
or with a 5% vinegar solution. (Heat and allow to work for a short time.) After decalcifying, rinse
the kettle thoroughly with plenty of clean water.
- Before cleaning the kettle, always remove the plug from the mains socket. Never immerse the
kettle or base in water.
- The exterior surface of the appliance should only be cleaned with a damp cloth and never with
an abrasive.
- To decalcify the heating element use a standard decalcifying liquid. Then rinse out the kettle
several times by boiling up fresh water.
