  4. ON/OFF switch, illuminated
  5. Limescale filter (removable)
  6. Base
  7. Cable tidy

  • Only fill the kettle with water. Milk and instant beverages will burn and damage the appliance. Never operate kettle 1 without water and do not overfill it; observe the min and max markings. If the kettle is too full, the water will boil over!

Before using for the first time

  • Remove any stickers or film.
  • Unroll the right amount of cable from the cable tidy 7 and plug it in.
  • Fill kettle 1 with water. Bring the water to a boil and discard it. Repeat the procedure. This will make sure that the kettle is clean for normal use.

Boiling water

This is normal; it does not mean that kettle 1 leaks. After boiling, let the kettle cool down for 5 minutes before refilling it with water.
