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 kettle away
from the edge of the worktop.
• Ensure that the appliance is used
on a firm, flat surface.
• Do not use the appliance
outdoors, in a bathroom, or near
water.
• WARNING: Do not place the
appliance onto a metal tray
or metal surface whilst in
use.
Mains lead
• The mains lead should reach
from the socket to the base unit
without straining the
connections. Reduce the length
of the lead by storing the excess
in the cord storage facility in the
base unit.
• 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 a table.
• Do not let the lead run across a
cooker or other hot area which
might damage the cable.
• Do not place the kettle where the
mains lead could fall into a sink.
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. If
wet, 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 an appliance
containing hot liquid.
• Do not touch hot surfaces, use
the handles or knobs.
• Always close the lid securely,
otherwise the kettle may not
switch off automatically and may
spit out boiling water. Always
have the BRITA Water filter in
place.
• Avoid contact with emitting
steam from the spout 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 and filtration may be
impaired.
• 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.
• Do not move the kettle when
switched on.
• Allow to cool before putting on
or taking off parts and before
cleaning.
• This appliance is not intended
for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have

instruction concerning the use
of the appliance by a person

Children

dangers associated with
operating electrical appliances.
Never allow children to operate
or play with this appliance.
• Children are vulnerable in the
kitchen particularly when
unsupervised and if appliances
are being used or cooking is

dangers in the kitchen, warn
them of the dangers of reaching

see properly or should not be
reaching.

ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
