Before Initial Use
PLEASE NOTE
•
There may still be some production residues on the device. To avoid harmful effects
to your health, clean the device before you fi rst use it (see the "Cleaning and Care"
chapter).
1. Remove all packaging materials and any possible protective fi lms used for protection during
transportation. Never remove the rating plate and any possible warnings!
2. Before you fi rst use hot water or enjoy tea, we recommend that you carry out a trial run to
remove any possible production residues. To do this, follow the instructions in the "Opera-
tion" and "Preparation" chapters.
When the device is fi rst used, production-related additives (e. g. grease) may cause a
small amount of smoke and / or an odour to be produced. This is normal and not a device
defect.
3. Repeat this process twice. Do not drink this water!
4. Clean the device and accessories (see the "Cleaning and Care" chapter).
Setting Up and Connecting the Device
PLEASE NOTE
•
Do not place the device below kitchen wall units or similar cupboards. The rising steam
could cause damage to them!
•
The surfaces of furniture may possibly contain elements which can attack and soften the
adjustable feet of the device. If necessary, place a suitable pad below the adjustable feet.
•
Only connect the device to a socket with safety contacts that is properly installed and
matches the technical data of the device. The socket must also be readily accessible
after connection so that the connection to the mains can quickly be isolated.
•
Lay the mains cable in such a way that it does not become squashed or bent and does
not come into contact with hot surfaces (also applies to the hot surfaces of the device!).
1. Place the device in a suitable location, following the safety instructions and the notices
provided at the beginning of this chapter.
Please Note: Always set up the device with a clear space at the sides (at least 20 cm)
and clear space above it (at least 30 cm) on a fl at, solid and heat-resistant surface that is
resistant to splashing.
2. Fully unwind the mains cable from the cable winder and plug it into a properly installed,
easily accessible plug socket.
