Safety system
When by mistake switching on the
water kettle without water, a
thermostat protects the appliance
from overheating by switching it off.
Before refilling with water it is
essential to wait until the kettle
has cooled down.
If by chance the boil-dry cut-out fails
to work an additional thermal fuse
will cut off power to the unit.
Cleaning and maintenance
Pull the plug and cool the appliance. Do
not immerse the appliance in water, but
wipe with a damp cloth to which a dish-
washing agent has been added and
then wipe dry.
Do not use sharp and abrasive clea-
ning agents.
The pan is made from rustresistant
stainless steel. If rust spots are seen
regardless, these are initially only
deposits adhering to the surface. They
should be removed immediately with
stainless steel cleaner.
Descaling
Calcium deposits result in energy losses
and reduce the service life of the appli-
ance. It switches off early, if the calcium
coating is too thick. It is then difficult to
remove. Decalcify the pot routinely.
®
We recommend using durgol
express. It is very effective and
gentle to materials.
You may obtain it where you bought the
appliance; directly from a select dealer
or you can order it directly from petra-
electric.

Disconnect the appliance from the sock-
et and let cool prior to decalcification. Fill
®
in 1 to 2 cups of durgol
express and
let the appliance stand until the calcium
coating is removed from the bottom.
Then fill the appliance with cold water
past the calcium edge and let stand for
15 minutes. Then pour it out and thor-
oughly rinse with cold water.
Do not heat the solution during decalcifi-
cation.
Caution, warranty compensation does
not exist for damages that occur due to
non-compliance.
Causes for failures
• Appliance switches off before
the water is boiling: The built up
lime scale at the bottom of the
kettle is too thick or there is too
less water.
• The appliance does not switch
off: Lid is not closed.
• Appliance cannot be switched
on: After having used the
appliance without or too little water
the appliance has not yet cooled
down sufficiently.
If the failure cannot be removed let
the appliance have repaired.
