7. To manually switch off the kettle at any time, lift the ON/OFF switch.
8. Unplug the kettle from the wall socket when it is not in use.
CAUTION:
• Do not overfill the kettle, as boiling water may splash out from the spout or lid,
resulting in scalding.
• Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is clear of obstructions and that the lid is
properly closed. The kettle will not switch off automatically if the ON/OFF
switch is obstructed or the lid is open.
• Never open the lid while the water is boiling.
• Always switch off the kettle before removing it from the power base.
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The temperature gauge on the kettle shows the temperature of the water inside the
kettle, allowing you to make tea, coffee or hot beverages at the optimal
temperature.
BOIL DRY CUT-OFF PROTECTION
If the kettle is accidentally switched on empty or with insufficient water, the boil dry
feature will automatically cut off the power supply. Lift the kettle from the power
base and let it cool down before refilling it with water. Fill the kettle with water up
to the "MAX" marking to reset the boil dry protection.
Avoid boiling the kettle dry, as this may damage the appliance or shorten its
lifespan.

CLEANING AND CARE

DANGER OF ELECTROCUTION! Unplug the kettle from the wall socket and let it
cool down before cleaning.
DANGER OF ELECTROCUTION! Do not immerse the kettle, power base, electric
cord or plug in water or any other liquids. Never rinse them under the tap or expose
them to moisture. Keep all electrical parts dry. Failure to observe this warning may
cause a fire or life threatening injury by electric shock.
CAUTION: Do not use solvents, chemical or abrasive cleaning agents, wire brushes,
sharp objects or scouring pads to clean the kettle or the power base.
General cleaning
1. Remove the kettle from the power base. Empty the kettle and rinse the inside
with water thoroughly.
2. Wipe the outside of the kettle and the plastic parts of the power base with a
soft cloth moistened with water or mild dish detergent. Dry thoroughly with a
soft, dry cloth.
3. Ensure that all connectors and sockets are kept dry.
Cleaning the scale filter
Depending on the hardness of the water in your area, scale present in tap water
may give your drinking water a cloudy or white appearance. The scale filter in your
kettle helps prevent scale particles from being poured into your drink.
Clean the scale filter regularly, especially when there are visible mineral deposits
and pouring is affected. To clean the scale filter, remove it from the kettle and clean
it with a soft brush under the tap. Reattach it to the kettle after cleaning.
