Safety instructions
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
► Ensure that the base with the electrical connections NEVER comes
into contact with water! Ensure that the base is completely dry
before use, especially if it has accidentally become wet.
► Use the kettle only with the supplied base.
► Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet or damp during
operation. Lay the cable so that it cannot be trapped or otherwise
damaged.
► To avoid risks, arrange for defective plugs and/or cables to be
replaced at once by qualified technicians or our Customer Ser-
vice Department.
► After use, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket.
Switching the appliance off is not sufficient, because the appli-
ance is under power for as long as the plug is connected to the
power socket.
► Before use check the appliance for signs of visible external dam-
age. Do not put into operation an appliance that is damaged or
has been dropped.
► Repairs should only be carried out by authorized specialist
companies or by the Customer Service department. Incompetent
repairs can result in significant risks for the user. In addition war-
ranty claims become void.
NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids!
You could receive a fatal electric shock if residual liquids
come into contact with live components during operation.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Heat water only with the lid closed, otherwise the automatic switch-
off cannot function. Boiling water could then spray out over the rim.
► Hot steam clouds may be released. The kettle also becomes very
hot during use. It is always best to wear oven mitts when handling
the kettle.
► Ensure that the appliance is stood stably and vertically before
switching it on. Boiling water can cause an unstable kettle to fall over.
► Do not open the lid while the water is boiling.
► This appliance may be used by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and/or
knowledge if they are supervised or, in regard to the safe use of
the appliance, have been instructed in its use and have under-
stood the potential risks.
► This appliance may be used by children aged 8 years or more if
they are supervised or, in regard to the safe use of the appliance,
have been instructed in its use and have understood the potential
risks. Cleaning and user maintenance tasks should not be carried
out by children unless they are aged 8 years or more and are su-
pervised. The device and its connecting cable must be kept away
from children younger than 8 years old.
► Children may not play with the appliance.
► Do not fill the kettle above the “maximum” mark! Otherwise boiling
water may spill out!
► Do not operate the appliance without the scale filter insert.

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Do not use an external timing switch or a separate remote control
system to operate the appliance.
► Never leave the appliance unsupervised whilst in use.
► Ensure that the appliance, the power cable and the plug do not
come into contact with hot plates or open flames.
Preparation
Unpacking
ƇRemove all components of the appliance and the operating manual from
the carton.
ƇRemove all packing material.
Disposal of the packaging
The packaging protects the appliance against transport damage. The packaging
materials are selected from the point of view of their environmental friendliness
and disposal technology and are therefore recyclable.
The recirculation of packaging into the material circuit saves on raw material and
reduces the amount of waste generated. Dispose of packaging material that is
no longer needed according to the regionally established regulations.
NOTICE
► If possible, preserve the appliance's original packaging during the warranty
period so that, in the event of a warranty claim, you can pack the appliance
ideally for its return.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Always and only use freshly drawn mains water in the kettle! Do not con-
sume any water that is not certified as potable. If you do, you are taking a

Boiling water
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
► Never place the electrical base close to water – this would be a
potentially fatal risk!
WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
► Always use freshly drawn water. Do not consume any water that has already
stood in the kettle for longer than one hour. Do not reboil water that has cooled
down. Always pour old water away. Microbes could have formed in it!
NOTE
► Always ensure that the ON/OFF switch is in the “0” position (off) when
the mains plug is unplugged and the appliance is standing on the base .
If not, the device could heat up unintendedly as soon as the mains plug is
plugged in again.
