wise it may overflow during the boiling
process.
WARNING!
• Never put alcohol, sugar or milk into
the glass pot|8!
• Always allow the glass pot|8 to cool be-
fore filling it with cold water. Large tem-
perature differences create large stresses
in the glass and may cause it to shatter.
1. Remove the glass pot|8 from the
base|14.
2. Open the lid|6.
3. Remove the boiling system|5.
4. Hold the boiling chamber|4 tightly with
one hand, and pull the overflow|1 up-
wards until the screen|2 has opened the
boiling chamber, and then place the
boiling system|5 on a level surface.
5. Fill the glass pot|8 with the desired
quantity of water. Never fill with water
above the MAX marking|9, and never
below the MIN marking|10.
6. Place the desired quantity of tea into the
boiling chamber|4.
7. Insert the boiling system|5 into the glass
pot|8. The recess in the boiling cham-
ber|4 should be pointing towards the
handle|7.
8. Close the boiling chamber|4 by press-
ing down the screen|2 at the over-
flow|1. Make sure while doing so that
the riser pipe|3 slots into the recess in
the bottom of the pot.
9. Close the lid|6 of the glass pot|8.
10.Use the On / Off switch|11 to switch
the device on (I). The control light|12
and the On / Off switch will light up.
You can interrupt the boiling process at
any time by switching off the device at
the On / Off switch (O) or by removing
the glass pot|8 from the base|14.
Depending on the volume of water, the boil-
ing process takes 6 - 10 minutes. After the
boiling process is complete (control light|12
36 GB
goes out), the device automatically switches
to the heating function. If the glass pot|8 is
left for a long time and the contents cool
down, the tea kettle will reboil the contents.
During this process the control light will light
up again. As the contents will flow through
the boiling system|5 again during this pro-
cess, you should remove it after the first boil-
ing process.
NOTE:
• Do not use green tea in the tea kettle.
The tea kettle generates a higher boiling
temperature than is required for steep-
ing green tea. The tannins released
would make the tea taste bitter.
• For proper enjoyment, drink the tea after
it has brewed the first time. If the tea is
kept hot for a long time, or if it is re-
boiled, water will evaporate and the tea
will become stronger and bitter.
• For stronger tea, add more tea to the
glass pot|8; for weaker tea, add less.
• The strength of the tea depends on the
volume of water, the type of tea and the
quantity of tea used.
7. Overheating
protection
If there is no water or inadequate water in
the glass pot|8 and the device is neverthe-
less switched on, this will activate the over-
heating protection, which will switch off the
heating element inside the device. The On /
Off switch|11 will continue to be lit, howev-
er the device will no longer heat the con-
tents.
1. Switch off the device with the On / Off
switch|11.
2. Allow the device to cool down.
3. Press the Reset button|13 at the under-
neath of the glass pot|8.
The device can now be reused.
