Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when
using an electrical appliance, including the following:
Electrical safety and cord handling
• Make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the
voltage stated on the appliance rating label and your outlet socket is properly
earthed. If this is not the case, contact the after sales support line and do not
use the kettle.
• Do not use any other appliance at the same time on the same electrical
circuit as it may overload the circuit and blow the fuse or circuit breaker.
• To protect against fire and electric shock, do not immerse the cord, plug,
power base or the kettle itself in water or other liquid. Do not expose the
electrical connections to water.
• The cord should be run in such a way that there will be no risk of anyone
pulling it inadvertently.
• Do not kink, bend, squash, strain or damage the power cord and protect it
from sharp edges and heat. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table
or benchtop. Do not let it touch hot surfaces.
• Do not pick up or operate the appliance if the power supply cord, plug,
power base or kettle housing is damaged, or after it malfunctions or has
been damaged in any manner.
• A damaged cord or plug must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
• In case of damage, contact the after sales support line for advice.
• Make sure all electrical connections are clean and dry before switching on.
• NOTE: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device
(safety switch), we recommend using this kettle with a residual
current device to lessen the risk of scalding or other injury from hot
water that may be ejected if the heating element ruptures. Contact a
qualified electrician for advice.
