Technical description All 1. 0 litre Electrolux high-speed electric kettles have the same basic technical features: Rating: 1010 Watt (230 V) Maximum capacity: 1. 0 litre Minimum fill: 0. 25 litre Connecting the kettle Protection against boiling dry All Electrolux kettles and hot-water boilers are fitted with a device which switches them off if there is no water inside. This protects them from the overheating which would result from switching them on when empty or from boiling dry with the lid open. Should your kettle ever accidentally be switched on with no water inside, it is automatically protected from overheating. The heating process is automatically interrupted. However, in this case, the On/Off switch (Fig. 1/A) does not jump back to the 0 position, for which reason it is necessary for you to set the switch to the 0 position and to leave the appliance to cool for about 5-10 minutes. As a further safety measure, in the event of the operating temperature rising too high as a result of improper use, the temperature cutout will melt through, and the power supply will be cut off. Because of this additional safety feature, Place the kettle on an firm surface. Take the mains plug out of the plug holder.

When descaling, please follow these instructions: First fill the kettle with water and than add the descaling agent. Do not give your kettle an overdose of descaling agent! [. . . ]
