PETRA CLASSIC WATERKETTLE ROMA 1.7L / 1.0L ART. 232147 / 232153
BEFORE USING
Read these instructions thoroughly first and keep them for future reference. Check whether the voltage
in the home corresponds with that of the appliance. Only connect this appliance to an earthed socket.
The kettle has a (removable) filter in the spout. The fact that the pot is completely detachable and rotates
a full 360 degrees on the circular base makes the kettle especially easy to use for both left-handed and
right-handed people. The integrated element is not vulnerable to limescale for a longer life-span.
Complete with illuminated on/off switch, safe lid locking system. You can open the lid by pressing the
button. With built-in three-way safety feature: steam cut-off, boil-dry protection and overheat protection.
USING THE KETTLE
The kettle should be used exclusively for boiling water; never use it with other liquids or ingredients.
First boil a full pot of water to clean the pot and discard this water.
Always fill the pot between the minimum and maximum level markers. If insufficient water is used, the
kettle may switch off, with too much water it may boil over. Always remove the pot when filling it to
avoid water dripping into the base.
Switch it on by pushing up the on/off button in the handle. The indicator lamp will be illuminated. Once
the water has boiled, the on/off switch returns automatically to the off position.
If the appliance is accidentally switched on when empty, the boil-dry protection will automatically switch
it off. Adding water will then cool the boil-dry protection mechanism enabling you to use the kettle as normal.
Note:
• Do not remove the pot from its base until it has switched off automatically or you have switched it
off yourself first.
• Do not fill the pot higher than the MAX level indicator or boiling water may spray out.
• The kettle may only be used with the accompanying base.
• The cord should be completely unrolled and not left rolled around the base.
CLEANING
FIRST REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE SOCKET AND ALLOW THE POT TO COOL.
The outside of the PETRA CLASSIC WATERKETTLE ROMA can be wiped down with a damp cloth.
The base should always be cleaned without water.
DESCALING
Use a descaling agent suitable for household appliances, such as coffee machines. Follow the instructions
on the packaging. Do not switch the kettle on during descaling, but allow the agent to soak in while the
kettle is still cool. Rinse the pot several times with clean water.
