Pri uporabi električnih naprav je treba vedno upoštevati osnovne varnostne ukrepe, vključno z naslednjimi:
- Preberite vsa navodila.
- Ne dotikajte se vročih površin. Uporabite ročaje ali gumbe.
- Za zaščito pred požarom, električnim udarom in poškodbami oseb ne potapljajte kabla, vtičev ali električnega grelnika vode v vodo ali drugo tekočino.
- Potreben je natančen nadzor, kadar katero koli napravo uporabljajo otroci ali v njeni bližini.
- Izvlecite vtič iz vtičnice, ko ga ne uporabljate in pred čiščenjem. Pustite, da se ohladi, preden namestite ali odstranite dele in preden očistite aparat.
- Ne uporabljajte naprave s poškodovanim kablom ali vtičem, če naprava ne deluje pravilno, če je padla ali je kakor koli poškodovana. Napravo vrnite v najbližji pooblaščeni servisni center na pregled, popravilo ali nastavitev.
- Uporaba dodatkov, ki jih proizvajalec naprave ne priporoča, lahko povzroči požar, električni udar ali telesne poškodbe.
- Ne uporabljajte na prostem.
- Kabel ne sme viseti čez rob mize ali pulta ali se dotikati vročih površin.
- Ne postavljajte na ali blizu vročega plinskega ali električnega gorilnika ali v segreto pečico.
- Vedno najprej priključite vtič na napravo, nato pa priključite kabel v stensko vtičnico. Za izklop izklopite kateri koli gumb in nato izvlecite vtič iz stenske vtičnice.
- Naprave ne uporabljajte za namene, ki niso predvideni.

6. Vzdrževanje in čiščenje
Redno čiščenje zagotavlja optimalno delovanje in podaljšuje življenjsko dobo vašega grelnika vode.
6.1. Čiščenje zunanjosti
- Pred čiščenjem grelnik vode vedno izključite in pustite, da se popolnoma ohladi.
- Obrišite zunanjost kotlička z adamp krpo. Ne uporabljajte abrazivnih čistil ali gob za ribanje.
- Prepričajte se, da podstavek in kabel ostaneta suha.
6.2. Cleaning the Interior and Limescale Filter
- Odstranjevanje vodnega kamna: Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. To descale, fill the kettle with a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts water. Boil the mixture and let it stand for at least 30 minutes, or longer for heavy buildup. Empty the kettle and rinse thoroughly with fresh water several times.
- Alternatively, use a commercial descaling solution designed for kettles, following the manufacturer's instructions.
- Čiščenje filtra: The removable limescale filter can be detached for cleaning. Rinse it under running water and gently brush away any deposits. Ensure it is properly re-inserted before using the kettle.
