Important

Read this user manual carefully before you use the

appliance and save it for future reference.

Danger

Do not immerse the appliance or the base in water

or any other liquid.

Warning

Check if the voltage indicated on the base of the

kettle corresponds to the local mains voltage before

you connect the appliance.

Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord,

the base or the appliance itself is damaged.

If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it

replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by

Philips or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid

a hazard.

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 been given supervision

or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance.

Keep the mains cord out of the reach of children.

Do not let the mains cord hang over the edge of

the table or worktop on which the appliance stands.

Excess cord can be stored in or around the base of

the appliance.

Only use the kettle in combination with its original

base.

Keep the mains cord, the base and the kettle away

from hot surfaces.

Hot water can cause serious burns. Be careful when

the kettle contains hot water.

Never ll the kettle beyond the maximum level

indication. If the kettle has been overlled, boiling

water may be ejected from the spout and cause

scalding.

Do not open the lid while the water is boiling. Be

careful when you open the lid immediately after the

water has boiled: the steam that comes out of the

kettle is very hot.

Caution

Always place the base and the kettle on a dry, at

and stable surface.

The kettle is only intended for boilong water. Do

not use it to heat up soup or other liquids or jarred,

bottled or tinned food.

Do not touch the body of the kettle during and

some time after use, as it gets very hot. Always lift

the kettle by its handle.

Always make sure the water in the kettle at least

covers the bottom of the kettle to prevent the kettle

from boiling dry.

Depending on the hardness of the water in your

area, small spots may appear on the heating element

of your kettle when you use it. This phenomenon is

the result of scale build-up on the heating element

and on the inside of the kettle over time. The harder

the water, the faster scale builds up. Scale can occur

in different colours. Although scale is harmless, too

much scale can inuence the performance of your

kettle. Descale your kettle regularly by following the

instructions given in chapter ‘Descaling’.

Boil-dry protection

This kettle is equipped with boil-dry protection. This

device automatically switches off the kettle if it is

enough water in it. The on/off switch stays in ‘on’ position

and the power-on light, if available, stays on. Set the on/off

switch to ‘off’ and let the kettle cool down for 10 minutes.

Then lift the kettle from its base to reset the boil-dry

protection. The kettle is now ready for use again.
