IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The use of any electrical
appliance requires the
following common sense
safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of
injury or death and
secondly the danger of
damage to the appliance.
These are indicated in the
text by the following two
conventions:
WARNING: Danger to
the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to
the appliance! In addition
we offer the following
safety advice.
Location
• Always locate your
appliance away from the
edge of the worktop.
• Ensure that the appliance
is used on a firm, flat
surface.
• Do not use the appliance
outdoors or near water.
• WARNING: Do not
place the appliance
onto a metal tray or
metal surface whilst
in use.
Mains lead
• Do not let the mains lead
hang over the edge of the
worktop where a child
could reach it.
• Do not let the lead run
across an open space e.g.
between a low socket and
table.
• Do not let the lead run
across a cooker or other
hot area which might
damage the cable.
• The mains lead should
reach from the socket to
the base unit without
straining the connections.
Personal safety
• WARNING: To
protect against fire,
electric shock and
personal injury do
not immerse cord,
plug and appliance
in water or any other
liquid.
• Always keep the top of the
cordless base dry,
especially around the
connection area,
disconnect the power
supply before drying. Allow
to dry thoroughly before
reconnection to the power
supply.
• Always pour hot water
slowly and carefully
without tipping the
appliance too fast to
prevent splashing and
spillage.
• Extreme caution must be
used when moving a
appliance containing hot
liquid.
• Do not touch hot surfaces,
use handles or knobs.
• Always close the lid if
applicable and always
have the filter in place.
• Avoid contact with emitting
steam when the water is
boiling or just after it has
switched off.
• Take care if opening the lid
of the appliance when hot.
• Do not open the lid whilst
the water is boiling
• Do not fill above the MAX
mark, otherwise boiling
water may be ejected.
• Do not hold the switch in
the on position or tamper
with the switch to fix it in
the on position as this may
cause damage to the
switch-off mechanism.
• Unplug from the outlet
before cleaning.
• Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off
parts and before cleaning.
Children

operate this appliance.
• Children are vulnerable in
the kitchen particularly
when unsupervised and if
appliances are being used
or cooking is being carried
out.
• Teach children to be aware
of dangers in the kitchen,
