temperature indicators light up).
5. Press Start/Stop to interrupt the heating process or switch off the automatic

Heating water without boiling
This is the recommended mode for bottled artisan or filtered water. Water which
has not been boiled retains its natural properties, which is particularly important
when brewing premium teas.

2. Within 5 seconds, press the temperature button to set the water temperature
(40, 55, 70, 85 or 95°С). The indicator lights up.
If the temperature is not set within 5 seconds, the appliance switches to the
standby mode (no indicator light). The temperature can also be changed during
the heating process by pressing the relevant temperature button.
3. Press Start/Stop or wait 5 seconds: the Start/Stop indicator lights up and the
water starts heating up. At the same time, the Reheat, Start/Stop and tem-
perature indicators will light up.
4. When the water has been heated, the kettle goes into the temperature-
maintenance mode (the Reheat and temperature indicators light up).
Dry-boil protection
The kettle switches off automatically after boiling and when it is removed from its
base.
If the kettle is empty or does not have enough water inside, the dry-boil protection
will switch the kettle off automatically. When it has cooled down, the appliance
will again be ready for use.
Try to avoid activating the dry-boil protection as this can reduce the life of the
appliance.
The Ready for Sky technology
The Ready for Sky technology enables to use the software app of the same name
to control the appliance remotely from a smartphone or tablet.
1. Download the software from the App Store or Google Play (depending on your
operating system) onto your smartphone or tablet.
2. Switch on Bluetooth v4.0 on your mobile device.
3. Open the Ready for Sky app, create an account and follow the prompts that
appear on the screen.
4. Open and update the list of available appliances to connect to the mobile
device.
5. From the list of available appliances select the one to be connected. The name
of the appliance is the same as the model number. You can set a new name
or stop installation by default.
6. Confirm the connection of the selected appliance and follow the instructions
on the screen of the mobile device. While connecting the kettle to the control
panel the Boil and 85°С or Reheat and 55°С indicators will light up in turn.
To ensure a stable connection, the mobile device should be no more than 10
metres from the appliance.
III. CARE OF THE APPLIANCE
Before cleaning, unplug the kettle and leave it to cool down.
Do not clean with abrasives or chemical substances not recommended for items
that come into contact with foodstuffs.
Do not immerse the base, electric cable or plug in water: the electrical contacts
must not come into contact with water. Before using the kettle again, ensure that
the electrical contacts are completely dry.
Periodically clean the surface of the kettle and the base with a soft damp cloth.
A build-up of limescale may form inside the appliance over time. Use a special
kitchen limescale remover (purchased separately) and follow the usage instructions.
The limescale filter can be detached for cleaning: open the lid, carefully remove
the filter, immerse it in a lemon-water solution, then rinse and replace.
