BEFORE FIRST USE Remove all wrapping material from the electric kettle and its base stand. Fill the kettle with clean water up to the maximum water mark (MAX) inside the

kettle. Boil the water and empty the contents of the kettle. Repeat this process 2 to 3 times. To boil water, proceed according to the instructions in chapter Operation.

OPERATION Attention: The electric kettle is intended only for heating water. Never heat any other liquids or substance in it.

Set the required power cord length and push it into the groove in the base stand. Place the base stand on a stable, even and clean surface.

Fill the kettle with the required amount of water. You may fill it through the spout or through the opening after lifting the lid. To open the lid, press button A5. The water level must reach at least the minimum mark (MIN) but must not exceed the maximum mark (MAX) inside the kettle. After filling the kettle, properly close the lid.

Attention: Never fill the kettle when it is placed on the base stand.

Turning on and stand-by mode Place the kettle on the base stand and insert the power cord plug into a  power

socket. It will beep, all the indicators on the display will flash and then the current temperature and buttons B4 and B6 will be lit. In this way the kettle enters the stand-by mode, meaning that it is ready for operation.

In the event that no action is performed within 5 minutes of the kettle being turned on, the display will turn off and the kettle will automatically switch to the sleep mode.

Wake the kettle from the sleep mode into the stand-by mode by pressing button B4.

value 100 C will quickly appear on the display and then the current water temperature will be shown. The displayed temperature value increases as the water is heated. Heating of water can be interrupted at any time by pressing button B6.

Pressing button B6 in the stand-by mode will quickly show the temperature value 100  C on the display and water will start being heated. Heating of water can be interrupted at any time by pressing button B6.

Attention: Never start the kettle empty without water. The incorrect use of the kettle may negatively affect its working order and lifetime.

When the temperature of the water reaches 100  C, the kettle will beep and automatically switch to the stand-by mode.

Pour the boiled water into a prepared container, cup or mug. When carrying it, hold the kettle upright, particularly when it is filled all the way up to the maximum mark.

If you wish to fill the kettle again and start heating immediately after pouring in the water, wait approximately 3060 seconds. When opening the lid, be especially careful to avoid scalding yourself with boiling water or steam.

After you finish using it, disconnect the power cord from the power socket. Empty the kettle and allow it to cool down.

PROTECTION AGAINST BOILING WITHOUT WATER If you accidentally turn on the kettle without water, the thermostat will, after reaching a  certain temperature, interrupt the electric circuit and the kettle will turn off. The kettle can be used again after several minutes, once the heating bottom has cooled down.

Attention: Even though the kettle is equipped with protection against boiling without water, do not turn it on when empty. The incorrect use of the kettle may negatively affect its working order and lifetime.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Attention: Prior to any cleaning or maintenance, always disconnect the base stand from the power socket and allow the kettle to cool down. Do not wash the kettle, its base stand or power cord under running water and do not submerge them in water or another liquid.

To clean the external parts of the kettle, use a dry cloth or a cloth dipped in a weak solution of neutral kitchen detergent. Never use solvents, cleaning products with an abrasive effect, etc. After washing, wipe the surface with a clean, lightly dampened cloth and then wipe dry.

Wipe the internal parts of the kettle using a soft sponge or clean cloth dipped in clean warm water. Do not use detergents or any other chemical agents on the internal parts. After cleaning the kettle, rinse it out several times with clean water.

To clean the base stand, use only a dry cloth.

Removing limescale deposits During normal use, substances contained in water accumulate on the appliance to

form so-called limescale deposits. These may negatively affect the lifetime of the kettle and ruin the taste and appearance of your beverage, so it is important to regularly remove them based on how frequently the kettle is used.

- 8 - 03/2021 Copyright 2021, Fast R, a.s.

When using the kettle at a  frequency of 3 to 5 times per day, we recommend to remove water scale deposits:

once per month in areas with hard and very hard water; once every two to three months in areas with soft and medium hard water. Limescale deposits can be cleaned away using standard available limescale removal

products (according to the manufacturer's instructions) or use: 8% white vinegar, generally available in stores. Fill the kettle with 1 litre of water

and  litre of vinegar. Bring the solution to a boil and leave it to act in the kettle for 2 hours. Then empty the kettle and before further use, boil clean water in it four to five times.

citric acid. Boil 1 l of water in the kettle, then add 30 g of citric acid into the boiled water, and allow the solution to act for about 30 minutes. Then empty the kettle and before further use, boil clean water in it four to five times.
