Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and save them for future
reference.
Check if the voltage indicated on the base of the kettle corresponds to the local mains
,
voltage before you connect the appliance.
Only use the kettle in combination with its original base.
,
Always place the base and the kettle on a dry, flat and stable surface.
,
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
,
Keep the appliance and its cord out of the reach of children. Do not let the mains cord hang
,
over the edge of the table or worktop. Excess cord can be stored in the base of the
appliance.
Keep the cord, the base and the appliance away from hot surfaces.
,
Do not use the appliance if the mains cord, the plug, the base or the appliance itself is
,
damaged.
If the mains cord is damaged, it must always be replaced by Philips, a service centre
,
authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Do not immerse the appliance or the base in water or any other liquid.
,
The kettle is only meant for boiling water. Do not use it to heat up soup or other liquids or
,
jarred, bottled or tinned food.
Boiling water can cause serious burns. Be careful when the kettle contains hot water.
,
Never fill the kettle beyond the maximum level indication. If the kettle has been overfilled,
,
boiling water may be ejected from the spout and cause scalding.
Do not open the lid while the water is boiling. Be careful when you open the lid immediately
,
after the water has boiled: the steam coming out of the kettle is very hot.
Avoid touching the body of the kettle, as it gets very hot during use.
,
Always lift the kettle by its handle.
,
Always make sure the water in the kettle at least covers the bottom of the kettle to prevent
,
the kettle from boiling dry.
Some condensation may appear on the base of the kettle. This is perfectly normal and does
,
not mean that the kettle has any defects.
