CLEANING AND CARE
Allow the appliance
to cool before
cleaning it.
Before cleaning,
always turn off
the appliance and
unplug it from the
power supply.
1. Do not immerse the base, power
cord or kettle in water or other
liquids or wash them in the dish-
washer.
2. Wipe off the base and the kettle
with a damp cloth and a little
dishwashing detergent. Do not
use any abrasive scouring agents,
steel wool, metal objects, hot
cleaning agents or disinfectants,
since they can damage the appli-
ance.
3. The appliance must be comple-
tely dry on the outside before you
use it again.
DESCALING
1. To keep the appliance operating
efficiently and to prolong its ser-
vice life, it should be descaled
regularly, depending on the hard-
ness of your water.
2. To descale the kettle, fill it no
more than half full with a solution
of half water and half household
vinegar. Bring the liquid to a boil
and leave it in the kettle for a
while.
3. Pour the descaling solution out of
the kettle.
4. Then fill it with fresh water and
bring to a boil. Pour this water out
as well. Then rinse the kettle at
least twice with clear water.
5. Of course, you can also use com-
mercially available descaling pro-
ducts; please follow the instruc-
tions on the package.
12. The kettle automatically stops
heating when the water boils at
the latest.
13. Please allow the kettle to cool
down for a certain time before
using the kettle again to heat
water.
14. CAUTION!
As soon as the switch has been
pressed, the appliance cannot be
switched off manually, but only
by the automatic stop when the
water boils.
15. Always use fresh and cold water.
Do not leave water in the kettle.
16. Switch off and unplug electrical
appliances after use.
CAUTION:
The appliance becomes very
hot during operation!
