Temperature pre-selection
The kettle gives you the possibility of heating water to a desired temperature, e.g. one that matches
your favourite type of tea: 70°C for fine green tea types or 90°C for Oolong tea or white tea. Observe
the respective manufacturer's specifications.
Place the filled kettle on the base and the device is in standby mode.
Set the desired temperature (60, 70, 80 or 90°C) by pressing the respective button. Then press the start
/ stop button . This will now glow blue and the water begins to be heated.
A signal tone will beep once the desired temperature has been reached.
Please understand that for technical reasons the temperature may differ a few degrees from the set
temperature.
Keep-warm function

This will now glow blue and the water begins to be heated.
A signal tone will beep once the desired temperature has been reached.
The water is then kept at the desired temperature until you remove the kettle from the base to pour
out water. If you leave the kettle on the base, it will automatically switch back to standby mode after
approximately 20 minutes.
Automatic shutoff
The device switches to standby mode shortly after the selected temperature is reached. The shutoff
time is extended if the pot is only filled with a little water.
The shutdown takes place automatically if the pot is lifted from the base.
For functional reasons, some condensation may run out of the outlet openings at the bottom of the
handle to the edge of the base. This happens for technical reasons and does not impair the safety of
the device.
Safety system
A thermostat protects the kettle from overheating due to accidental operation without water by
switching off the device.
It is essential to allow the pot to cool down before filling with water.
Should the first thermostat malfunction due to improper use, an additional temperature limiter
ensures reliable protection.

Cleaning and maintenance

Remove the mains plug and allow the device to cool down. Do not immerse the device and base in
water, but rather clean them with a damp cloth with a little washing-up fluid and then dry off.
Do not use any sharp and abrasive cleaning agents.
The pot is made of stainless steel. Should rust spots nevertheless appear, they are only deposits
adhered to the surface. They should be removed immediately with a stainless steel cleanser.
The strainer insert in the pour spout can be removed for cleaning when the lid is open. To do so, pull
its clip upward. When inserting, place the strainer in the middle and then snap it forward into place.
Descaling
Limescale deposits lead to energy losses and impair the service life of the appliance. The appliance
switches off prematurely if the layer of limescale is too thick. The limescale is then very difficult to
remove. Therefore descale the appliance regularly.
▪ Prior to descaling, unplug the appliance from the mains and allow it to cool down.
▪ Remove the strainer and place it inside the kettle. Replace the strainer after descaling has finished.
▪ Then pour out the water and thoroughly rinse with cold tap water.
▪ Measure out and use descaling agents according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Do not heat the solution during descaling.
Caution: the warranty does not cover damage caused by failure to observe the descaling instructions.
Causes for malfunctions
▪ Device switches off before boiling:
Bottom of the pot is too strongly calcified,
it is not filled with enough water
▪ Device will not switch on:
The device has not sufficiently cooled down following operation with no or too little water.
If it is not possible to fix this problem, submit the device for repair.
