Important safety instructions
Before the appliance is used, the main unit
as well as any attachment fi tted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, it must
not be used any longer: even invisible
damage may have adverse eff ects on the
operational safety of the appliance.
Th e power cord should be regularly
examined for any signs of damage. In the
event of such damage being found, the
appliance must no longer be used.
Do not operate the appliance if excessive
force has been used to pull the power
cord. Damage cannot always be detected
from the outside; the entire unit should
therefore be checked by a qualifi ed
technician before it is used again.
Th is appliance may be used by children
(at least 8 years of age) provided they have
been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance and
fully understand all dangers and safety
precautions involved. Children must not
be permitted to carry out any cleaning
or maintenance work on the appliance
unless they are supervised and at least 8
years of age. Th e appliance and its power
cord must be kept well away from children
under 8 at all times.
Th e appliance may only be used by
persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lacking experience
and knowledge, if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the
use of the appliance and fully understand
all
dangers
involved.
Children must not be permitted to play
with the appliance.
Caution: keep any packaging materials
well away from children, as such materials
are a potential source of danger e.g. from
suff ocation.
Do not leave the water kettle unattended
during operation. Use only pure water
when fi lling the container to the desired
level, observing the Min. and Max.
markings. Overfi lling the container may
cause danger from boiling water being
forced out.
Also beware of the danger of scalding
from hot steam being emitted. Th erefore,
do not touch any parts of the appliance
except the handle during use.
Caution! During the boiling process and
when pouring out hot water, the lid must
be kept closed at all times.
Th e kettle may only be operated with the
base provided with the appliance.
Do not operate the appliance below a
hanging cupboard or similar object;
there is a risk that escaping steam may be
trapped underneath.
