You can thus prevent the appliance from being damaged:
•Under NO circumstances should you fill the carafe with cold water immediately after boiling water. This could create tensions in the glass that would cause it to shatter!
•Fill the appliance once again with water up to the MAX marking on the scale and then bring it to the boil. When done, pour this water away also.
The appliance is now ready for use.
