The rising of the water level in the kettle is delayed in relation
to the speed of pouring the water. It is caused by the lter
slowing down the speed of the ow. This can be prevented by
pouring the last portions of water extremely carefully before
the water reaches the maximum level on the indicator.
In the event that an empty kettle is switched on, it will be
switched off by a thermal device automatically.
In order to switch the kettle on again after it has cooled down
(approx. 15 minutes), take it off the base, replace it and
switch the kettle on by pressing the lever (8). The cooling
down of the kettle can be accelerated by puring cold water
into the kettle.
