It is not intended for use with other fluids or for commercial applications. Safety Information To avoid potentially fatal electric shocks: · Ensure that the base with the electrical connections NEVER comes into contact with water! Should the base be accidentally moistened, allow it to dry completely before using it. · Use the kettle only with the supplied base. · Ensure that during operation the power cable never becomes wet or damp. Lay it so that it cannot be pinched or otherwise damaged. · Arrange for defective plugs and/or power cables to be replaced at once by authorised technicians or our Customer Service Department. · After use, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket. Simply switching off is not sufficient, because the appliance remains "live" for as long as the plug is inserted in the mains power socket. Technical data Mains voltage: Power consumption o o p Operation: Standby: 220 - 240 V ~ / 50 Hz 2500 - 3000 W <1W To bring 1 Liter of water to the boil: 15°C --> 100°C/Power consumption: < 117 Wh Capacity: max. 1.5 l min. 0.5 l To avoid burn and injury risks: · Heat water only with the lid closed, otherwise the automatic switch-off cannot function. Boiling water could then be sprayed out over the edge. · Hot steam clouds may be released. In addition, the kettle becomes very hot when in use. Therefore wear oven-mitts. · Ensure that the appliance is stood stably and vertically before switching it on. Boiling water can cause an unstable appliance to tip over. Due to the high power consumption, in older electrical installations the fuse (12A) could trigger.

Lift the kettle from the base y and fill it with water to take the appliance back into use. -3- Heating water Danger NEVER place the electrical base y adjacent to water ­ a potentially fatal risk! You can now heat the water up: · Set the desired temperature: press the button SET TEMP r repeatedly until the LED q at the desired temperature glows. You can choose between 40°C, 60°C, 80°C and 100°C. Note 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! Information If you cannot set the desired temperature, it may be because the temperature of the water in the kettle is still too high. In this case, exchange the water for freshly drawn mains water. · When you selected the desired temperature, press the On/Off button e within about 10 seconds. The LED q of the selected temperature blinks. The LED integrated in the On/Off button e glows. If you do not start the boiling process within 10 seconds the set temperature lapses. · Once the desired temperature has been reached, a signal tone sounds, the respective LED q for the temperature reached is lit constantly for about 2 minutes and the LED integrated in the On/Off switch e extinguishes. Note When possible, heat only as much water as you actually need. This also saves energy! · Lift the kettle off of the base when filling it! · Open the lid by pressing the lid switch under the handle of the lid t, thereby opening the lid up. Pull the lid back slightly so that it is secure and does not drop down. · When filling it, hold the kettle upright . Only in this way can you correctly read the markings. Fill the kettle... ­ at least to the MIN mark, so that the appliance does not overheat, ­ no more than to the MAX mark, so that no boiling water spills out. · First close the lid, ensuring that it engages... · and then place the kettle on the basey, such that it is standing absolutely upright on the base y. · Insert the plug into a mains power socket. Information If you want to bring water to a boil (100°C), you only need to press the On/Off button e. The kettle will bring the water to a boil. Information - You can cancel the heating up of the water at any time by pressing the On/Off button e. - Once you lift the kettle from the base y, the appliance switches all functions off. All settings are cancelled. -4- Note Do not let the water stand in the kettle for longer than is absolutely necessary. That would lead to scale deposits. Pour away the water that is no longer required immediately. The keep-warm setting can be made before, during or immediately after the boiling process: Before the boiling process og c · Before the boiling process, press the KEEP WARM w button. · Press the button SET TEMP r repeatedly until the LED q at the desired temperature glows. · Press the button Start to begin the boiling and then the keep-warm process. The LED q of the currently set temperature glows, the LED integrated in the KEEP WARM w button glows as well as the LED in the On/Off e button. The water will now also be kept warm after being heated. During the boiling process ge go · Start the boiling process as described in the section "Heating water". · During the boiling process, press the KEEP WARM w button. On completion of the boiling process the LED q of the currently set temperature glows, the LED integrated in the KEEP WARM w button glows as well as the LED in the On/Off e button. The water will now also be kept warm after being heated. After the boiling process g c · After the signal tone, indicating the end of the boiling process, press the button KEEP WARM w. The appliance will then automatically maintain the keep-warm temperature at the temperature you selected to heat the water. The LED q of the currently set temperature glows, the LED integrated in the KEEP WARM w button glows as well as the LED in the On/Off e button. The water will now be kept warm. Keeping water hot With this kettle you can maintain the water at a temperature of (about) 40°C, 60°C, 80°C or 100°C for 30 minutes. Should you have set the desired temperature maintenance at 100°C, to avoid excessive steam development the kettle holds the water at a temperature of between about 90°C and 100°C. If the desired heating maintenance temperature is 80°C, 60°C or 40°C, the water heater holds the water at a temperature of between about 8°C above or below the selected temperature. Important Use the keep-warm function only when there is at least 0.5 liters of water in the kettle. If there is less water in it, the kettle may be switched off within the 30 minutes in order to protect the heating element. Warning BEFORE you lift the kettle from the base y, first disconnect the plug from the mains power socket. This prevents causing a short circuit by water possibly spilling out of the kettle and falling onto the live electrical connections in the base y. Risk of personal injury For safety reasons, the lid should not be opened while the water is boiling or is very hot. There is a risk of receiving severe scalds. -5- As soon as the water temperature falls below the set temperature, the kettle heats up again automatically. The LED q of the currently selected temperature setting blinks until the selected temperature has been regained. Afterwards, it glows constantly again. After 30 minutes the kettle switches itself off. Two signal tones sound. All LEDs extinguish. Information - At any time you can cancel the temperature maintenance of the water by pressing the On/Off button e or the KEEP WARM button w. - Once you lift the kettle from the base y, the appliance switches all functions off. Before cleaning the appliance, .... · first disconnect the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down. · Clean all exterior surfaces and the power cable with a slightly moist cloth. In all cases, dry the appliance well before using it again. · To clean the inside of the kettle, thoroughly rinse it out with water and then pour the water away. · Do not use detergents, abrasives or solvents. These can damage the appliance. In the event of scale deposits: · Before descaling, remove the pourer sieve i (see chapter "Removing/replacing the pourer sieve"). · Use a descaler designed for household appliances (e.g. for coffee machines). Pay heed to the instructions given for the descaler. · For the stainless steel container bottom, you can use a suitable product from a specialist dealer. Note Do not let the water stand in the kettle for longer than is absolutely necessary. That would lead to scale deposits. Pour away the water that is no longer required. Removing/replacing the pouring sieve Cleaning and Care Danger Do not open any part of the housing. There are no user-serviceable elements inside. An open housing increases the risk of receiving a potentially fatal electric shock. Under NO circumstances may the appliance parts be immersed in water or other liquids! Should residual liquid be on "live" parts during use, there would be the risk of receiving a potentially fatal electric shock. · Open the lid. · Press the tab at the upper end of the pourer sieve i down and, simultaneously, push the pourer sieve to the inside. · You can then lift the pourer sieve i up and out of its holder. · Clean the pourer sieve i with a lightly moistened dishcloth and under running water. · After cleaning, insert the pourer sieve i from above and then push it forward so that the tab locks into place. Ensure that the pourer sieve i grips into the holder at the lower end and is firmly seated. -6- · Should any scale deposits have set on the pourer sieve i, soak it for a few hours in a water-vinegar solution at a ratio of 6:1. The scale deposits will dissolve themselves. Rinse the pourer sieve i with copious amounts of clear water. Warranty and Service You receive a 3-year warranty for this appliance of the purchase date.
