Automatic switch-off

Shortly▪after▪the▪water▪has▪started▪to▪boil,▪the▪automatic▪switch-off▪
function▪will▪shut▪down▪the▪kettle▪automatically.▪If▪the▪kettle▪is▪filled▪
with▪only▪a▪small▪quantity▪of▪water,▪the▪switch-off▪period▪will▪be▪
increased.
If▪you▪require▪warm▪but▪not▪boiling▪water,▪the▪heating▪process▪can▪be▪
interrupted▪at▪any▪time▪by▪pressing▪the▪ON▪switch.▪The▪appliance▪will▪
then▪shut▪down▪automatically▪as▪soon▪as▪the▪kettle▪is▪removed▪from▪
the▪base.
For▪functional▪reasons,▪a▪small▪amount▪of▪condensed▪water▪may▪run▪
out▪through▪the▪openings▪at▪the▪bottom▪of▪the▪handle▪and▪onto▪the▪
rim▪of▪the▪base.▪This▪is▪due▪to▪technical▪reasons▪and▪does▪not▪impair▪
the▪safety▪of▪the▪appliance.
Safety system
If▪the▪kettle▪is▪accidentally▪operated▪without▪water,▪a▪thermostat▪
protects▪the▪kettle▪from▪overheating▪by▪switching▪off▪the▪appliance.
Make▪sure▪to▪allow▪the▪kettle▪to▪cool▪down▪before▪filling▪with▪water.
If▪the▪first▪thermostat▪should▪fail▪due▪to▪misuse,▪an▪additional▪tempe-
rature▪limiter▪offers▪reliable▪protection.
Cleaning and maintenance
Disconnect▪the▪appliance▪from▪the▪mains▪and▪allow▪it▪to▪cool▪down.▪
Never▪immerse▪the▪appliance▪in▪water;▪simply▪wipe▪it▪over▪using▪a▪
damp▪cloth▪with▪a▪drop▪of▪washing-up▪liquid▪and▪then▪rub▪dry.
Do▪not▪use▪harsh▪or▪abrasive▪cleaning▪agents.
The▪bottom▪of▪the▪kettle▪is▪made▪of▪stainless▪steel.▪If▪you▪notice▪rust▪
stains▪all▪the▪same,▪these▪are▪only▪deposits▪sticking▪to▪the▪surface.▪
Remove▪these▪immediately▪with▪a▪cleaning▪agent▪for▪stainless▪steel.▪
The▪mesh▪filter▪in▪the▪spout▪can▪be▪pulled▪off▪to▪clean▪when▪the▪lid▪is▪
open.▪To▪remove,▪press▪up▪the▪top▪lug.▪When▪inserting,▪place▪the▪mesh▪
filter▪centrally▪against▪the▪bar▪and▪then▪latch▪home▪to▪the▪front.

Decalcifying
Limescale▪and▪calcium▪deposits▪result▪in▪a▪loss▪of▪energy▪and▪impair▪
the▪service▪life▪of▪the▪appliance.▪The▪appliance▪will▪switch▪off▪
prematurely▪if▪the▪deposit▪is▪too▪excessive.▪It▪is▪then▪very▪difficult▪to▪
remove▪the▪deposit.▪For▪this▪reason,▪decalcify▪the▪appliance▪at▪regular▪
intervals.
We▪recommend▪using▪durgol® universal.▪This▪decalcifying▪agent▪is▪
highly▪effective▪and▪gentle▪to▪the▪material.▪
You▪can▪obtain▪this▪decalcifier▪where▪you▪bought▪the▪appliance▪or▪
directly▪from▪select▪dealers,▪or▪you▪can▪order▪it▪directly▪from▪wmf
consumer electric.
Before▪decalcifying,▪disconnect▪the▪appliance▪from▪the▪power▪supply▪
and▪let▪it▪cool▪down.▪Fill▪in▪1▪to▪2▪cups▪of▪durgol® universal▪and▪wait▪
until▪the▪calcium▪deposit▪is▪removed▪from▪the▪bottom▪of▪the▪kettle.▪
Then▪fill▪the▪appliance▪with▪tap▪water▪up▪to▪the▪limescale/calcium▪
mark▪on▪the▪wall▪and▪leave▪to▪stand▪for▪15▪minutes.▪Pour▪out▪the▪
water▪and▪rinse▪the▪kettle▪thoroughly▪with▪cold▪tap▪water.
Do▪not▪heat▪up▪the▪kettle▪during▪the▪decalcification▪process.
Important.▪Warranty▪compensation▪does▪not▪cover▪damage▪that▪occurs▪
due▪to▪non-compliance▪with▪the▪decalcification▪instructions.
Causes of faults
▪ ▪ The▪appliance▪switches▪off▪before▪boiling:▪
The▪kettle▪bottom▪is▪too▪strongly▪calcified
▪ ▪ There▪is▪not▪enough▪water▪in▪the▪kettle:▪
The▪appliance▪does▪not▪switch▪off
▪ ▪ The▪lid▪is▪not▪closed:▪
The▪appliance▪cannot▪be▪switched▪on
The▪kettle▪has▪not▪cooled▪down▪sufficiently▪after▪being▪operated▪with▪
no▪or▪too▪little▪water.
If▪the▪fault▪cannot▪be▪remedied,▪you▪must▪return▪the▪appliance▪for▪
repair.
