Before first use

Before using the water kettle for the first time, fill it to the maximum level with fresh water, boil, then pour the water away. Repeat this procedure 3 times. After repeatedly boiling water it is normal that some condensation may have formed on the base of the water kettle.
If this happens, just wipe dry with a cloth.

Setting into operation

1a. Fill the kettle through the spout with the lid closed,
or
1b. press the lid release button (c), open the lid, fill with water and close the lid again (the kettle will not work with the lid open).

2. Place the kettle on the dry base and plug in the base.
   
3. Press the on/off switch (d), the pilot light will come on (do not open the lid when the kettle is switched on).
   
4. When the water has boiled, the kettle automatically switches off. You may also stop the heating procedure at any time by pressing the on/off switch (d).
5. Empty the water kettle after each use.

Automatic cut-off feature

The kettle switches off when...

• the water has boiled,
• it contains no water
• (in case of accidental switching on),
• the lid is opened,

Cleaning

Before cleaning, unplug the base.
Kettle or base must never be immersed in water. Clean the outside of the kettle with a damp cloth, the inner part can be cleaned by means of a brush. The removable scale filter is dishwasher-proof.

Descaling

• To extend the kettle's lifetime and save energy, we recommend the following descaling frequency:
  • Every 3 months in case of normal use (up to 5 times a day) with low to medium water hardness.
  • Every month in case of more frequent usage or with hard water.
• The water hardness you can check with your local water supplier.
• Boil 0.8 l water in the kettle.
• Important: Switch off the kettle and add 0.4 l household vinegar (4% acid). Do not boil the contents as it may cause spilling being a danger of scalding.
• Let the mix of water and vinegar sit in the kettle overnight.
• Empty the kettle and rinse the inside thoroughly with fresh water. Fill the kettle with fresh water and boil it.
• Empty the kettle and rinse it again with fresh water.
• If the kettle still contains scale, repeat this procedure.
• To remove any scale from the scale filter, you may soak it in diluted vinegar.

Subject to change without notice.
