locked indicator is illuminated
This can be achieved by pressing the button and simultaneously rotating it until the groove in the head of the button
faces toward the body of the appliance. In this position an internal spring will push the button out. Once the button is in
the extended position, the tap will be “Locked” and unable to dispense hot water.

Press and simultaneously rotate (aprox 90 degrees) the safety button on the right hand side of the control panel, until it
latches in the closed position, and the unlocked indicator is illuminated.
