Important Safeguards For Electrical Appliances - Gastroback 42436 Design Wasserkocher Cool Touch Bedienungsanleitung

Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, clean, dry, and
suitable large table or counter that is resistant against heat and water.
Always wipe off spilled liquids immediately.
Do not place any clothes or tissue or other foreign objects under or on
the appliance during operation, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock and
overheating. Do not place the appliance over a power cord or on wet or
inclined surfaces (e.g. sink or drain board).
Appliances can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not
play with the appliance.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above
if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way and if they understand the hazards involved.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children unless they
are older than 8 and supervised. Keep the appliance and its cord out of
reach of children aged less than 8 years.
Even cleaning may not be performed by children without supervision.
Children must always be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance or any parts of the appliance or the packaging.
Always keep the appliance where it is dry, frost-free, and clean, and
where young children cannot reach it. Do not leave the appliance or
any part of it unattended, when in reach of young children.
Do not place the appliance or any part of it on or near hot surfaces
(e.g. burner, heater, or oven). Do not use any parts of the appliance with
any other device or for any purpose not described in this booklet. Do not
handle the appliance or any part of it with violence.
Always switch OFF the appliance (remove the kettle from the base), unplug
and wait for the appliance to cool down completely, before cleaning the
appliance and when the appliance is not in use. Do not use any hard
or sharp-edged objects with the appliance (e.g. forks, knives, scrapers).
The appliance is intended for heating clear drinking water. For de-scaling,
only use the liquids recommended in this booklet. Do not fill in any other
30
liquids or food to avoid injuries and damage due to fire, electric shock,
and high temperatures.To avoid overheating, before operation, always
fill a sufficient amount of clear drinking water into the water kettle (at least
0.5 litre / MIN). Do not operate the appliance with the water kettle
empty. However, do not fill in more than the maximum amount (1.5 litre
/ MAX). If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may splash out.
If liquids run out or are spilled onto the exterior of the base or kettle, imme-
diately unplug the appliance. Always wipe off spilled liquids immediately.
If in doubt, check the kettle for leakage, before operating the appliance
again.
Do not place any hard and/or heavy objects on or in the appliance or
any part or accessory of it.
Do not use any abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads (e.g. metal scouring
pads), or any corrosive chemicals (e.g. bleach) for cleaning. Do not place
the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher!
Depending on the hardness of your water, you need to de-scale the kettle
regularly. A large amount of scale will lead to energy loss and could cau-
se damage to the appliance (see: 'Care and Cleaning').

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES

The appliance is heated electrically. Place the appliance near a
suitable wall power outlet to connect the appliance directly to a separately
connected and protected mains power supply with protective conductor
(earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the ratings of your mains
power supply correspond to the requirements of the appliance (220-240
V AC, 50/60 Hz, rated for 16 A).
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.) with
a maximum rated residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying
electrical circuit is strongly recommended. If in doubt, contact your electri-
cian for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are sub-
ject to incompatible norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in
foreign countries do not meet the requirements for safe operation of the
