Intended Usage

mestic use only, it is not suitable for commercial or
industrial applications.

Safety information

To avoid potentially fatal injury through
electric shock:
• Ensure that the base with the electrical connections
does not come into contact with water! Ensure that
the base is completely dry before use, especially
if it has accidentally become wet.
• Use the appliance 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 potentially fatal risks, arrange for a de-
fective power plug and/or cable to be replaced
at once by qualified technicians or our Customer
Service Department.
• Always remove the plug from the mains power
socket after use. Simply switching the appliance
off is not sufficient, as the appliance is under
power for as long as the plug is connected to
the socket.
To avoid burns and other injuries:
• Always heat the water with a closed lid, otherwise
the automatic cut-out may not work. Boiling water
can then spray out over the edge.
• Hot steam clouds may be released. The glass
pot also becomes very hot during use. Wear
oven mitts.
• Make certain that the appliance stands firmly
and vertically before switching it on.
Boiling water can cause an instable kettle to fall
over.
• Exercise caution with the glass pot. Broken glass
can cause serious cut wounds.
• Never fill it with more water than to the MAX
marking. If you do, boiling water may spray out
and lead to scalds.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals
(including children) with restricted physical, physio-
logical or intellectual abilities or deficiences in
experience and/or knowledge unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their
safety or receive from this person instruction in
how the appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
You can thus prevent the appliance from
being damaged:
• Under no circumstances should you fill the ap-
pliance with cold water immediately after a brewing
process. It could form stresses in the glass, causing
it to break!
