Belangrike veiligheidsinstruksies
Wanneer elektriese toestelle gebruik word, moet basiese veiligheidsmaatreëls altyd gevolg word om die risiko van brand, elektriese skok en/of besering aan persone te verminder, insluitend die volgende:
- Lees alle instruksies.
- Moenie aan warm oppervlaktes raak nie. Gebruik handvatsels of knoppe.
- Om te beskerm teen brand, elektriese skok en beserings aan persone, moenie die koord, proppe of elektriese ketel in water of ander vloeistof dompel nie.
- Noukeurige toesig is nodig wanneer enige toestel deur of naby kinders gebruik word.
- Trek uit die stopcontact wanneer dit nie gebruik word nie en voor skoonmaak. Laat afkoel voor jy onderdele aan- of afhaal, en voordat jy die toestel skoonmaak.
- Moenie enige toestel gebruik met 'n beskadigde koord of prop nie, of nadat die toestel wanfunksioneer of op enige manier beskadig is nie. Kontak kliëntediens vir ondersoek, herstel of aanpassing.
- Die gebruik van bykomstighede wat nie deur die toestelvervaardiger aanbeveel word nie, kan brand, elektriese skok of beserings aan persone tot gevolg hê.
- Moenie buite gebruik nie.
- Moenie dat koord oor die rand van tafel of toonbank hang, of aan warm oppervlaktes raak nie.
- Moenie op of naby 'n warm gas- of elektriese brander, of in 'n verhitte oond plaas nie.
- Koppel altyd eers die prop aan die toestel, en steek dan die koord in die muursok. Om te ontkoppel, draai enige beheer na "af" en verwyder dan die prop uit die muursok.
- Moenie die toestel vir ander as die bedoeling gebruik nie.
- Die ketel moet slegs met die meegeleverde kragbasis gebruik word.
- Maak seker dat die deksel stewig toe is tydens werking.
- This appliance has a double-wall design to prevent the outer casing from becoming too hot. However, exercise caution as the inner stainless steel can still be hot.
- This kettle features automatic shut-off and boil-dry protection for enhanced safety.

- Outomatiese afskakeling: The kettle will automatically switch off once the selected temperature is reached or if it boils dry.

Onderhoud en Skoonmaak
Gereelde skoonmaak verseker optimale werkverrigting en verleng die lewensduur van jou ketel.
- Voor skoonmaak: Ontkoppel altyd die ketel van die kragtoevoer en laat dit heeltemal afkoel voordat jy dit skoonmaak.
- Buitenste skoonmaak: Vee die buitekant van die ketel af met 'n sagte, damp lap. Moenie skuurmiddels of skuursponse gebruik nie, aangesien dit die afwerking kan beskadig.
- Interior Cleaning/Descaling: Met verloop van tyd kan mineraalafsettings (kalk) binne die ketel opbou, veral in areas met harde water. Om te ontkalk:
- Fill the kettle with a mixture of water and white vinegar (e.g., 1 part vinegar to 2 parts water) or a commercial descaling solution.
- Kook die mengsel.
- Let it stand for 15-30 minutes (or as directed by the descaling solution).
- Gooi die mengsel uit en spoel die binnekant deeglik met vars water 'n paar keer af.
- Filter skoonmaak: The spout contains a removable filter to prevent limescale from pouring into your cup. To clean, remove the filter and rinse it under running water. Use a soft brush if necessary to remove stubborn deposits. Reinsert the filter securely after cleaning.
