WARNING: Do not remove the diffuser ring located on the base inside the kettle.
WARNING: Never immerse the kettle base, power base, power cord or power plug in
water, or allow moisture to come in contact with these parts.
Decalcifying the kettle
CAUTION: Never use abrasive cleaners, any chemicals, disinfectants, cleaning pads or
any sharp utensils (i.e. metal scouring pads) for cleaning. Handle the kettle and power
base without violation. Never place the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dish-
washer. Depending on the water hardness in your residential area, mineral deposits build
up in the water container, causing decolouration and increasing energy loss. Therefore we
recommend to decalcify the water container regularly.
1. Combine ca. 400 to 500 ml vinegar and 800 to 1000 ml water, fill this solution in the
kettle and boil. Make sure, the room is well ventilated.
2. Switch OFF and unplug. Allow to stand overnight.
3. Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle with clean water to water level mark
1700/MAX, bring to boil and discard the water.
4. Thoroughly rinse the interior of the water container with clear water. After that the kettle
will be ready for use.
Storage
Store the entire appliance (including the power base and operating instructions) on a
clean and dry surface, where it may not tilt or fall and no other objects could fall on it and
where it is safe from frost and inadmissible strain (mechanical or electric shock, heat) and
where it is out of reach of young children. Do not place any hard or heavy objects on the
appliance or any parts of it.
Always switch off the kettle and unplug the power base, when the appliance is not in use.
Empty remaining water and place the kettle on the power base to protect the connector
pins in the power base from dust. When the appliance is not in use for a long period of
time, decalcify the interior of the water container (See „Decalcifying the Water Contai-
ner“). When required, wind the power cord round the cord storage in the bottom of the
power base.

corresponding local regulations and requirements for electrical appliances and pa-
ckaging. Please contact your local disposal company.

facilities. Contact your local government for information regarding the collection systems
available.If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps, hazardous substan-
ces can leak into the groundwater and get into the food chain, damaging your health and
