5| USING THE APPLIANCE FOR
THE FIRST TIME
A few additional information before use:
A stainless-steel strainer insert in the pour
€
spout ensures that larger limescale parti-
cles are kept back when pouring, to keep
the water clear and optimize the taste of
your hot beverage.
Any surplus length of the connecting cable
€
can be wound at the bottom of the base
part.
Before using your WMF MASTER Water Ket-
tle for the first time, we recommend thoroughly
cleaning the inside (see "Cleaning and care"
chapter).
1| Connect the mains plug to an earthed socket.
2| Add the desired amount of water (min. 200
ml, max. 1,200 ml).
WARNING:
If the kettle is not filled with enough
water, the overheating protection auto-
matically deactivates the heating ele-
ments. The display shows "---". In this
case, allow the appliance to cool down
before using it again.
Too much water may cause hot water to
boil over, which can cause serious inju-
ries or burns.
3| Place the kettle (6) on the base (7) in any
position.
4| Press the On/off button (8). The LED light
ring (11) around the rotary knob (9) is light-
ing up, and the LED screen (10) displays the
last used temperature.
5| Select the desired temperature by turn-
ing the knob (9) and click on it to confirm
and start the heating process. The sym-
bol "heating" (13) blinks to signify that the
temperature is not reached yet. Once it is
reached, the symbol stays lit.
NOTE
Do not use the water from the first boiling pro-
cess for food preparation.
