"Thank you for buying a Tefal kettle. Read the following instructions
carefully, common to all our models, and keep them in a safe place."

The first two or three
times that you use the
kettle, throw the water
away because it may
contain foreign
particles.
Rinse the kettle and
filter separately.
Check that the
electrical supply is
compatible with the
power and voltage
indicated beneath your
model.
• Only plug the kettle
into a socket with a
built-in earth
connection.
• Never lift the lid
whilst the water is
boiling.
You can fill the kettle
through the spout to
keep the filter in good
condition.
At the very least, cover
the heating element (or
the bottom of the kettle)
with water.
•Never fill the kettle
when it is on its base.
•Do not fill it above the
max. level or below the
min. level. If the kettle
is overfilled, boiling
water may escape.
• Do not use without
water.
• Check that the lid is
closed properly to avoid
steam near the handle.
Fill the kettle with the required amount
of water.
5
Place the kettle on its base.
Connect to the mains.
6
Turn it on using the switch or the trigger
handle. The kettle will turn itself off
automatically when the water is boiling.
7
Check that the kettle has stopped
automatically or turn it off manually
before removing it from the base to pour
the water.
8

•Never immerse the
kettle or its base in
water, as the electrical
connections and the
switch must not be
allowed to come into
contact with water.
•Never use abrasive
cleaning pads.
•Never rub the "gold"
coating as this will
damage its surface.
•Never use descaling
methods other than
those recommended
To clean your kettle
Unplug it.
Leave it to cool and then clean with a soft damp sponge.
Certain models are equipped with a bottom surface or a heating
element which is gold-plated to limit scale deposits and facilitate
cleaning.
To clean the filter (depending on model)
The removable filter is made up of fabric which retains the particles of
scale and stops them from falling into your cup when you pour. This
filter does not treat the water or remove the scale from it. It therefore
preserves all the qualities of the water.
With very hard water, the filter becomes clogged with scale very
quickly (10 to 15 uses). It is important to clean it regularly.
If it is wet, rinse it with water, and if it is dry, scrub it gently.
Sometimes the scale does not come away; if so, descaling is
necessary.
Descale regularly, preferably at least once a month and more frequently
if your water is very hard.
To descale your kettle, use:
• white vinegar
- fill the kettle with half a litre of vinegar
- leave to stand for 1 hour without heating
• citric acid:
- boil half a litre of water
- add 25g of citric acid and leave to stand for 15 minutes.
• a specific descaling agent for plastic kettles:
- follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Empty your kettle and rinse it 5 or 6 times.
Repeat if necessary.
To descale your filter (depending on model):
Soak the filter in white vinegar or diluted citric acid.
Rinse thoroughly with water before putting back in the kettle.

•To avoid accidents, never
carry your child or baby when
you are drinking or carrying a
hot drink.
• If the base of your
kettle is assembled with
screws and if the power
cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its
after-sales department
or a person with similar
qualifications for safety
reasons
• If the base does not
include any screws, the
power cable cannot be
replaced. If the cable,
the base or the
connector are damaged,
the base must be
replaced completely.
• Do not use the kettle.
No attempt should be
made to dismantle the
appliance or the safety
systems.
Tefal reserves the right
to modify the
characteristics or
components of its
kettles at any time, in
the interests of
consumers.
There is no visible damage to your kettle
The kettle does not work or stops before boiling.
• Check that the kettle is plugged in properly.
• The kettle has been operated without water or scale has
accumulated, triggering the safety system to prevent dry operation:
leave the kettle to cool and then fill with water. Use the switch to turn
it on: the kettle starts working again after about 15 minutes.
The water tastes of plastic
This usually occurs when the kettle is new. Throw away the water the
first few times you use it. If the problem persists, fill the kettle to
maximum, add two teaspoonfuls of bicarbonate of soda.
Boil and throw away the water. Rinse the kettle thoroughly.
If your kettle has fallen, if it leaks, or if the cord, the plug
or the base of the kettle are visibly damaged
Return your kettle to your Tefal After-Sales Service Centre, the only
organization authorized to repair it. See warranty conditions and list of
centres in the booklet supplied with your kettle.
The type and serial number are indicated on the bottom of your model.
This product has been designed for domestic use only.
Any professional use, inappropriate use or failure to comply
with the instructions, the manufacturer accepts no responsibility
and the guarantee will not apply.
For a child, even a slight burn may sometimes be serious.
As they grow up, teach your children to be careful with hot fluids in the
kitchen.
Place the kettle and cord towards the back of the working surface, out
of children's reach.
If an accident occurs, rinse the burn immediately with cold water
and call a doctor if necessary.

For UK only: wiring instructions
Warning: this appliance must be earthed
Important: the wires in this cord are coloured in accordance with the
following codes:
Green and yellow: Earth
Brown: Live
Blue: Neutral.
Connect the Green/Yellow wire to the terminal in the plug marked ”E”
or by the earth symbol or coloured Green or coloured Green and
Yellow. Connect the Brown wire to the terminal in the plug marked ”L”
or coloured Red. Connect the Blue wire to the terminal in the plug
marked ”N” or coloured Black.
A 13 amp fuse should be fitted when the appliance is connected to a
BS 1363A plug. Seek professional advice if unsure of the correct
procedure for the above.
The cord is already fitted with a plug incorporating an appropriate
fuse. If the plug does not fit your mains socket, see paragraph below.
Should you need to replace the fuse in the plug supplied,
an appropriately rated, approved BS 1362 fuse must be used
(refer to wiring instructions for fuse rating).
If the plug supplied does not fit your mains socket, it should be
removed from the mains cord and disposed of safely. The flexible
cord insulation should be stripped back as appropriate and a suitable
alternative plug fitted.
If the plug has external access to the fuse (non rewirable type plug)
please note that the fuse cover is an important part of the plug.
Please ensure that it is always refitted correctly.
