5.Plug in and switch the power on.

o Caution! If you set the on/off switch (6) to the "I" position before replacing the kettle on the base, the kettle switches on automatically when replaced on the base. For safety’s sake, check the on/off switch position before replacing the kettle on the base to avoid accidentally starting the kettle.

6.Switch on the appliance by switching the on/off button forward to "I". The on/off indicator in the water indicator lights up, when the appliance is on and heating the water.

The water will boil within a few minutes, depending on the amount in the kettle. If you want to interrupt the boiling, you can do this at any time by switching the on/off button backward to "O". Once the water is boiling, the kettle will automatically switch off thanks to the integrated thermostat. The indicator light comes off when the appliance is stopped and the on/off button automatically switches to position “0”.

Anti boil-dry device

If you switch the kettle on without having filled it with water, or when the water level is below the “MIN” mark, the anti boil-dry device will automatically switch it off. The kettle can be switched on normally, as soon as it is filled with a sufficient amount of water.

Storage

If the kettle is to be stored for any length of time without use, the cord can be rolled up around the inside of the base. Ensure the appliance is clean and dry before storing.

CLEANING THE KETTLE

When cleaning the appliance, you should pay attention to the following points:

•Remove the plug from the wall socket and allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.

•Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.

•Wipe using a well-wrung cloth and hot water. A little detergent can be added if the appliance is heavily soiled.

•Never use scouring powder, steel scourers or other strong cleaning agents to clean the interior or exterior surfaces of the appliance, as they may scratch the surfaces.

•Make sure that no water gets into the connector on the base or the hole in the underside of the kettle.

Decalcifying the kettle

The lime content of ordinary tap water means limescale may gradually be deposited inside. This limescale may be loosened using acetic acid (NOT ordinary vinegar) or descaler, available in supermarkets, etc.

1.Mix 1 dl acetic acid with 3 dl cold water, or follow the instructions on the descaler packaging.

2.Pour the solution into the kettle and switch it on.

3.Allow the solution to boil twice and then pour it out.

4.To remove the final residues of limescale and acetic acid, pour cold water into the kettle again (up to the "MAX" mark) and switch it on.

5.Pour out the water once it has boiled.

6.Repeat the process described under points 4-5 three times.

7.The filter (11) may be gently removed from the locking devices in the spout (1).

8.Place the filter in a cup with descaler for a couple of hours and thoroughly rinse it after decalcifying.

9.Gently replace the filter in the spout so that it is gripped and held in place by the locking devices. The appliance now ready for use.
