ꢀ In older electrical installations, the building
fuse (12A) may be triggered due to the high
power consumption.

• Always pull the plug out of the power socket
after use. Switching off the device is not sufficient
because the device receives power as long as
the power plug is connected to the socket.

ꢀ Because the device is equipped with a heat
maintenance function, the device automatically
begins reheating as soon as the water tempe-
rature falls below the set temperature.
Never submerse any parts of the device in
water or other liquids! This can create the
risk of a life-threatening electrical shock if
residual liquid comes into contact with
powered components.
The appliance heats until the desired tempera-
ture is reached. Make sure that the appliance
does not automatically switch on to the keep
warm function. Therefore, do not leave the
appliance unsupervised!
Before cleaning the device, ....
• First pull the power plug out of the power socket
and let the device cool completely.
• Clean the exterior surfaces and the power cord
with a slighly damp cloth. Always dry the device
well before using it again.
