∙ Do not leave the water kettle
unattended during operation. Use
only pure water when fi lling the
container to the desired level,
observing the Min. and Max.
markings. Overfi lling the container
may cause danger from boiling
water being forced out.

emitted. Therefore, do not touch
any parts of the appliance except the
handle during use.
∙ Caution! During the boiling process
and when pouring out hot water, the

the base provided with the appliance.
∙ Never remove the water container
from the base (or replace it) while the

are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fi tted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.

even invisible damage may have adverse
effects on the operational safety of the
appliance.
∙ The appliance must be used only on a
heat-resistant, level surface.
∙ Do not operate the appliance below a
hanging cupboard or similar object; there
is a risk that escaping steam may be
trapped underneath.

afterwards.
∙ Do not allow the appliance or its power
cord to come into contact with open
fl ames or any hot surfaces such as hot-
plates.
