USE
1.
Place the water kettle on a flat and stable surface.
2.
Remove the water kettle from its base and open the lid by pressing the top button.
3.
Fill the water kettle with the desired amount of water. Make sure that the water level is always
higher than the minimum indication (0.5 l) and lower than the maximum indication (1.7 l).
·
If you have not added enough water, the water kettle will switch off before the water boils.
·
If you have added too much water, the boiling water could escape through the spout. That is
why you should never exceed the maximum indication when filling the kettle. Also, always make
sure that the lid is properly closed before turning on the watter kettle.
4.
Close the lid. Make sure that it is closed well.
5.
Place the water kettle on its base.
6.
Plug in the appliance.
7.
Press the on/off switch at the bottom of the handle. The indicator will light up and the water kettle
will start the boiling process.
8.
The water kettle will automatically switch off when the water boils. You can always stop the boiling
process yourself at any moment by pushing the on/off switch upward.
·
Make sure that the on/off switch is clear of obstructions and that the lid is firmly closed. The
water kettle will not switch off automatically if the switch is hindered or if the lid is still open.
9.
Remove the kettle from the base and pour out the water.
·
Be careful when pouring the water since it is possible to burn yourself on the boiling water or the
hot steam. Do not open the lid when the water in the water kettle is hot.
10. The water kettle will not start boiling again until the switch is pressed down again. Let the appliance
cool down for 15 to 20 seconds before reopening the water kettle to boil water.
·
The water kettle can remain on its base when the appliance is not being used.
·
Make sure that the water kettle does not receive any power when it is not being used, so always
unplug the appliance when not in use.
·
If by accident you would use the kettle without water in it, the boil dry protection will automatically
switch off the appliance. If this happens, let the water kettle cool down completely before filling the
kettle with cold water to start the boiling process.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
·
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it.
·
Never immerse the water kettle or the cord in water. Also make sure that
they do not come into contact with moisture.
·
Wipe the outside of the device with a slightly damp cloth. You can use a
mild detergent, but do not use abrasive products.
·
Also regularly clean the removable filter.
DESCALING
Tap water may cause scale on the inside of the water kettle. Use a liquid descaler or a non-toxic cleaning
product to remove this build-up.
An alternate solution could be the following:
1.
Fill the water kettle with 3 cups of white vinegar and add water until the kettle is full (max. level). Let
this soak overnight. However, do not boil this liquid!
