If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be
ejected.
The kettle is only to be used with the stand
provided.
The appliance must not be immersed during
cleaning.
If the supply cord is damaged, the manufacturer or
its service agent or a similarly qualified person must
replace it in order to avoid a hazard.
Descaling
Always ensure that the kettle is disconnected from the
mains before descaling. Scaling or furring is a common
problem in hard water areas. It is recommended that
a propriety descaler is used whenever scale deposits
build up. The instructions supplied with the descaler
must always be followed. Scale build up may result in the
kettle switching off before boiling. Using a water purifier
will help to reduce scale build-up.
Ensure that you descale your filter at regular intervals to
avoid impairing the pouring performance of your kettle.
Disposal and the Environment
If your electrical appliance requires replacement or
is of no further use, please think of protecting the
environment. Contact you local authority for advice as
many have facilities for environmentally safe disposal.
