Before using
for the first time
● Remove any stickers or film.
● Unroll the right amount of cable from the
cable tidy 7 and plug it in.
● Fill the kettle 1 with water. Bring the
water to a boil and discard it. Repeat the
procedure. This will make sure that the
kettle is clean for normal use.
● When the water comes to a boil for the
first time, add a tablespoon of white
vinegar.
Boiling water
● Fill the kettle 1 with fresh water, either
through the spout or by pressing the
opening button 3 to open the lid 2.
● Read the quantity on the water level
indicator. Do not fill with less than
0.3 litres or more than 1,7 litres of water!
● Close the lid 2.
● Press down the switch 4; the switch lights
up. The water is heated.
● The kettle switches off automatically once
the water has boiled.
The appliance can also be switched off at
any time by pulling up the switch 4.
Warning: If you remove the kettle 1 from
the base and replace it before the heating
process is over, the kettle will not continue
to heat the water.

N.B.: Only operate the kettle with the lid 2
closed and the limescale filter 5 inserted,
otherwise the kettle will not switch off.
For physical reasons, the base 6 may
collect some condensation water. This is
normal; it does not mean that the kettle 1
leaks.
After boiling, let the kettle cool down for
5 minutes before refilling it with water.
Do not turn on the appliance if the kettle 1
is empty, otherwise the overheat control will
engage and the appliance will switch itself
off automatically.
