zThis device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with limited physical,
sensory or mental abilities or lacking experience and/or knowledge, unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety or have received instructions for use
of the device from this person in advance.
zSupervise your children in order to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
zKeep packaging bags and films away from babies and small children; there is a risk of
suffocation!

not come into contact with the electric parts in the bottom section and with the base.
zDo not operate the appliance with wet hands.
zDo not operate the appliance outdoors.
zConnect the appliance to a properly installed safety socket with voltage corresponding
to the “technical data”.

zDo not operate the kettle unsupervised.
zDo not use the appliance:
- if the kettle or base are damaged,
- if the power cable or mains plug are damaged,

zDo not carry out any modifications to the appliance or its power cable. Only have
repairs carried out by a professional workshop, as devices that have not been properly
repaired can be hazardous to the user. Also pay attention to the enclosed guarantee
conditions.
zDo not use an extension cord. If the power cable of this appliance should be damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after-sales service or customer service in
order to avoid hazards.
zThe appliance must not be connected to a time switch, a dimmer switch or any other
remote control system.
Burning/scalding and fire hazard
zThe kettle becomes hot during use. Burn hazard! Only hold the handle.
zWhen heating and during boiling, hot water vapour escapes. Scalding risk if touched!
zClose the lid prior to switching the appliance on. Otherwise, the appliance cannot
switch off automatically and the hot water can overboil. Ensure that the lid is locked in
place.
zWARNING: Do not open the lid during boiling and pouring. Risk of scalding from hot
water vapour!
zPay attention to the MIN and MAX filling marks:
- If insufficient water is filled (below MIN), the kettle can overheat.
- If too must water is filled (above MAX), hot water can spray out of the kettle.
Burn hazard!
Injury hazards from other causes
zDo not allow the power cable to hang over the edge of the table top or work surface.
You could become caught on it or children could pull the appliance down with it.
Caution – property damage
zOnly use the supplied base.
zPlace the appliance on a sturdy, level surface. When doing so, make sure the appliance
is not located near sources of heat e.g. hot plates, heating pipes etc. The power cable
must lie securely in the cable recess of the base, so that the based stands securely.
zPosition the appliance so that hot water vapour will be ventilated away from other
objects. Do not position the kettle beneath a hanging cabinet or shelf and turn the
spout away from sensitive surfaces or wallpaper. Also maintain a distance to easily
flammable materials, e.g. curtain or table cloth.

zThere are feet on the underside of the base. As the furniture/floor surfaces are made
of diverse materials and are treated with diverse care products, it cannot be entirely
ruled out that some of these materials contain components, which could attack and
soften the appliance feet. If necessary, place a non-slip underlay under the base.
zDo not clean the kettle with hard, scratching or abrasive detergents, steel wool, or
similar.
As soon as the mains plug is inserted into a socket and the kettle is placed on the
base, the appliance consumes a small amount of electricity, even if you are not
boiling water. Pull out the mains plug in order to completely disconnect the
appliance from the power supply.

Keeping water warm
The kettle has a keep-warm function.
zWith a temperature of 40, 60, 80 or 100 °C, you can keep the water warm for approx.
30 minutes. Afterwards, the kettle switches off automatically; two signal tones will
sound and all LEDs will extinguish.
zIf you have set a keep-warm temperature of 100 °C, the water will be kept warm within
a range of 90-100 °C, in order to avoid excess steam generation.
zIf you have set a keep-warm temperature of 40, 60 or 80 °C, the kettle will keep the
temperature approx. 8 °C below/above the set temperature.
Please note:
zOnly use the keep-warm function if a minimum of 0.5 litres of water are in the kettle.
Otherwise, the small amount of water could boil away during the next 30 minutes and
the dry-run protection (see page 11) will switch the appliance off.
zIf you cannot set a temperature, it is probably because the water temperature in the
kettle is still higher than the desired temperature.
zYou can stop the boiling procedure at any time by pressing the on/off button or the
KEEP WARM button
zAs soon as you lift the kettle off of the base, the appliance will switch off and all settings
will be lost.
The keep-warm function can be activated before, during and directly after boiling water.

1. Press the KEEP WARM button.
2. Press the SET TEMP button repeatedly until the appropriate temperature LED
illuminates in the operating panel.
3. Press the on/off button in order to start the boiling and subsequent keep-warm
process.

illuminate.
The water is heated and then kept warm.
During boiling:

2. Press the KEEP WARM button during boiling.
After the water has boiled, the LED of the relevant temperature, the KEEP WARM
and on/off button will illuminate.
