Installation and starting up
The original packaging has been designed for dispatch by post. Keep it in case you need to return the kettle to
the supplier. Before installing the kettle, comply with all the points of the safety instructions on the previous
pages. After removing the kettle from its packaging, make sure that it is in perfect condition and make sure
that no kind of matter, packaging material, warranty sheets or the like have accidentally fallen inside the
kettle during transport or when opening the packaging.
The plastic bag in which the kettle is packaged should be kept out of reach of children as it poses a suffocation
hazard.
In order to remove dust that may have accumulated on the kettle, simply dust it off with a dry soft cloth.
After you have carried out the above steps and have strictly followed the safety standards, proceed to connect
to the power supply.
Connecting to power supply: electric current can kill! Follow safety instructions !
Plug the power cord (6) of the Vera kettle into a power socket, the voltage of which corresponds to the
voltage indicated on the rating plate underneath the kettle.
To disconnect, make sure that the kettle is not running and if it is running press the on/off button (14) to stop
all the heating operation. Do not unplug the kettle from the power point by pulling on the cord. Always unplug
the appliance by holding the plug (6). The Vera kettle will show that it is connected to the power when the
display is on. To switch off completely the kettle plug (6) has to be removed from the socket.
Make sure that the electric socket that you are using is suitably earthed. Never use faulty or damaged
power cords. Use an extension cord only after making sure that it is in perfect condition (adhere strictly to the
safety instructions specied in point 5).
Never allow parts carrying live voltage to come into contact with water: it may cause a short circuit!!!
(follow all the safety instructions specied on page 4 point 3 and page 5 points 6-13-15).
