CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING:
young children. Always switch OFF (hold the "Start/Stop" button pressed until the signal
sounds), unplug, and leave the appliance cool down, before cleaning the appliance.
Do not spill or pour any liquids on or in the power base or power cord. Do not
place or immerse the power base, kettle or power cord in any liquids to avoid
damage, risk of fire, and electric shock. Especially keep the power socket at the
power base and the power connector in the bottom of the kettle always completely
dry and clean. Do not attempt to clean the power socket or the interior of the
power connector at the bottom of the kettle, to avoid damage.
Glass can easily break or crack. Always use special care while handling the kettle.
Do not expose the kettle to extreme temperature variations.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids (e.g. bleach, solving
agents, insufficient descaler) for cleaning the appliance or any part of it, to avoid
damage to the surfaces and seals. Do not use any hard or sharp-edged objects for
cleaning (e.g. scoring pads, knives, scrapers). Do not use violence.
DO NOT clean any part of the appliance in an automatic dishwasher!
Depending on the water hardness and the usage, the interior of the kettle gets coa-
ted with grey or sand-coloured scale or brown residues of tea. To keep the appli-
ance always ready for use, and to avoid damage to the heating elements, you
should remove these residues and de-scale the kettle in time (see: 'De-Scaling the
Kettle'). However, do not use any de-scaling solution not recommended in this
booklet, to avoid damage to the heating plate, temperature sensor, and seals
of the kettle.
Depending on the usage, you should clean the kettle always immediately after use,
to avoid the build-up of stubborn residues that could cause an unpleasant odour after
repeated usage of the kettle.

CLEANING THE POWER BASE AND KETTLE

1. Always remove the kettle from the power base, unplug the power base, and leave
the appliance cool down to room temperature, before cleaning the appliance.
2. If required, clean the interior of the kettle using a soft nylon brush or soft sponge
and lukewarm dishwater. Then, rinse the interior of the kettle thoroughly with tap
water. De-scale the kettle, if stubborn residues of scale cover the heating plate
(see: 'De-Scaling the Kettle').
