If the appliance is idle for more than 5 minutes, the kettle will shut off and the display
will get dark. Press any button, if you wish to switch on the appliance.To reduce
energy consumption, it is good advice to avoid leaving the appliance in keep warm
mode uselessly.
BRINGING WATER TO THE BOIL
Prepare the appliance for operation (see above: ‘Preparing the Appliance for Ope-
ration’) filling the kettle with the desired amount of water from 0.5 litres (“500ml/
MIN”) to 1.5 litres (“1500ml/Water MAX”).
2. Close the kettle using the tea lid set (see: ‘Knowing Your New Glass Tea Kettle’).
Push the tea lid ring down on the kettle until it settles firmly. Then, holding the tea
lid by the handle, insert the tea lid in the tea lid ring with the white arrow poin-
ting to “Open”. Turn the tea lid clockwise within the tea lid ring to “Close” for
locking the tea lid securely.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the kettle with the lid open. Otherwise, the tempera-
ture control and automatic shut-off will not work properly. Additionally, there will be
high energy loss. It is crucial, that the tea lid set is installed firmly on the kettle. Other-
wise the lid set could fall down during pouring.
3. Press the “Hot water/Cooking” button to select the “Hot water” program.
“100°C” will be shown on the display. With this program you cannot make any
further entries.
4. Shortly press the “Start/Stop” button to start the boiling cycle.
The kettle starts heating immediately. On the display, two dashes are shown first.
As soon as the water in the kettle reaches 30°C the actual water temperature is
shown.
With the water at boiling temperature (100°C), the appliance switches off the
heating plate and, with an acoustic signal, goes back to standby mode immedi-
ately.
5. Remove the kettle from the power base and carefully pour the water. With the
tea lid set installed correctly, the lid set will not fall during pouring. Ensure not to
spill the hot water to avoid injuries and damage.
MAKING TEA
You may make your tea directly within the kettle. You will need the tea lid ring (with
small opening), the small tea lid, and, when using tea leaves or dried fruits without
a tea bag, the tea filter.
