SPECIAL
INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING
THE KETTLE
point with a minimum output of 12.5A. (Use a residual current
device (RCD) seek the advice of an electrician.) While the
appliance is in use, the mains plug must be accessible
in case of an emergency. The manufacturer declines any
liability for accidents caused by faulty or non-existing
earthing of the appliance.
If the power point is unsuitable for accommodating the
plug of your appliance, have the power point changed by a
licensed electrician.
Power Cord
A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.
Extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating
of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance, if the appliance is of the
grounded type, the extension cord should be grounding type
3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so that it
will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Switching off the kettle manually
The ON/OFF button (7) can be used to switch the kettle off
before the water has reached the required temperature.
Safety cut-off
The kettle is protected against damage resulting from use
with an insufficient volume of water. A safety cut-off will
automatically disconnect its power supply if the heating
element overheats. Should the kettle ever boil dry during
operation, you must leave it to cool for 10 minutes before
refilling it with cold water. The safety cut-off will reset
automatically once it has cooled.
Clean the kettle before using it for the first time by filling it
completely (to the MAX mark) (4) with water, boiling the water,
and then discarding the water.
