KETTLE
Safety Information
Intended use
ƽ To avoid potentially fatal electric
shocks:
This appliance is intended for the boiling and kee-
ping hot of drinking water in domestic households. It
is not intended for use with other fluids or for com-
mercial applications.
• Ensure that the base with the electrical connections
NEVER comes into contact with water! Should
the base be accidentally moistened, allow it to
dry completely before using it.
• Use the kettle only with the supplied base.
• Ensure that during operation the power cable
never becomes wet or damp. Lay it so that it
cannot be pinched or otherwise damaged.
• Arrange for defective plugs and/or power cables
to be replaced at once by authorised technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• After use, ALWAYS remove the plug from the
mains power socket. Simply switching off is not
sufficient, because the appliance remains "live"
for as long as the plug is inserted in the mains
power socket.
Technical data
Mains voltage:
220 - 240 V / 50 Hz
~
Power consumption
Operation:
Standby:
2500 - 3000 W
< 1 W
To bring 1 Liter of water to the boil:
15°C --> 100°C/Power consumption: < 117 Wh
Capacity:
max. 1.5 l
min. 0.5 l
ƽ To avoid burn and injury risks:
• Heat water only with the lid closed, otherwise
the automatic switch-off cannot function. Boiling
water could then be sprayed out over the edge.
• Hot steam clouds may be released. In addition,
the kettle becomes very hot when in use.
Therefore wear oven-mitts.
ꢀ Due to the high power consumption, in older
electrical installations the fuse (12A) could
trigger.
• Ensure that the appliance is stood stably and
vertically before switching it on.
Items supplied
Boiling water can cause an unstable appliance
to tip over.
