Important
Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance 
and save it for future reference.
Danger
Do not immerse the appliance or the base in water or 
any other liquid.
Warning
Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance 
corresponds to the local mains voltage before you 
connect the appliance.
Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord, the 
base or the appliance itself is damaged.
If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced 
by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or 
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons 
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or 
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, 
unless they have been given supervision or instruction 
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible 
for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do 
not play with the appliance.
Keep the mains cord out of the reach of children. Do 
not let the mains cord hang over the edge of the table 
or worktop on which the appliance stands. Excess cord 
can be stored in or around the base of the appliance.
Keep the mains cord, the base and the kettle away from 
hot surfaces.
Do not place the appliance on an enclosed surface (e.g. 
a serving tray), as this could cause water to accumulate 
under the appliance, resulting in a hazardous situation.
Hot water can cause serious burns. Be careful when the 
kettle contains hot water.
Do not touch the body of the kettle during and some 
time after use, as it gets very hot. Always lift the kettle 
by its handle.
Never fill the kettle beyond the maximum level 
indication. If the kettle has been overfilled, boiling water 
may be ejected from the spout and cause scalding.
Do not open the lid while the water is heating up or 
boiling. Be careful when you open the lid immediately 
after the water has boiled: the steam that comes out of 
the kettle is very hot.
This rapid-boil kettle can draw up to 10 amps from 
the power supply in your home. Make sure that the 
electrical system in your home and the circuit to which 
the kettle is connected can cope with this level of power 
consumption. Do not let too many other appliances 
draw power from the same circuit while the kettle is 
being used.
Only use the kettle in combination with its original base.
Caution
Do not connect the appliance to an external switching 
device such as a timer and do not connect it to a circuit 
that is regularly switched on and off by the utility. This 
prevents a hazard that could be caused by inadvertent 
resetting of the thermal cut-out.
Always place the base and the kettle on a dry, flat and 
stable surface. 
The kettle is only intended for boiling water. Do not use 
it to heat up soup or other liquids or jarred, bottled or 
tinned food. 
Never fill the kettle below the 1-cup level to prevent it 
from boiling dry.
Depending on the hardness of the water in your area, 
small spots may appear on the heating element of your

kettle when you use it. This phenomenon is the result 
of scale build-up on the heating element and on the 
inside of the kettle over time. The harder the water, the 
faster scale builds up. Scale can occur in different colours. 
Although scale is harmless, too much scale can influence 
the performance of your kettle. Descale your kettle 
regularly by following the instructions given in chapter 
‘Descaling’.
Some condensation may appear on the base of the 
kettle. This is perfectly normal and does not mean that 
the kettle has any defects.
Do not operate the kettle on an inclined plane. Do not 
operate the kettle unless the element is fully immersed. 
Do not move while the kettle is switched on.
To prevent damage to the appliance do not use alkaline 
cleaning agents when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild 
detergent.
This appliance is intended to be used in household and 
similar applications such as:
staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other 
working environments;
farm houses;
by clients in hotels, motels and other residential 
type environments;
bed and breakfast type environments.
Boil-dry protection
This kettle is equipped with boil-dry protection. This device 
automatically switches off the kettle if it is accidentally 
switched on when there is no water or not enough water in 
it. Lift the kettle from its base and fill it with water to reset 
boil-dry protection. The kettle is now ready for use again.
Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding 
electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly 
and according to the instructions in this user manual, the 
appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available 
today.

 3
Clean the scale filter regularly.
Scale is not harmful to your health but it may give your drink 
a powdery taste. The scale filter prevents scale particles from 
ending up in your drink. Clean the scale filter in one of the 
following ways:
Take the scale filter out of the kettle and gently clean it 
with a soft nylon brush under a running tap.  (Fig. 6)
Leave the scale filter in the kettle when you descale the 
whole appliance.
Clean the scale filter in the dishwasher.
Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the kettle.
In case of normal use (up to 5 times a day), we recommend 
the following descaling frequency:
Once every 3 months for soft water areas (up to 18dH).
Once every month for hard water areas (more than 
18dH).
 1
Fill the kettle with approx. 900ml water.
 2
Switch on the kettle.
 3
After the kettle switches off, add white vinegar (8%
acetic acid) to the MAX indication.
 4
Leave the solution in the kettle overnight.
 5
Empty the kettle and rinse the inside thoroughly.
 6
Fill the kettle with fresh water and boil the water.
 7
Empty the kettle and rinse it with fresh water again.
Repeat the procedure if there is still some scale in the kettle.
Tip: You can also use an appropriate descaler. In that case, follow 
the instructions on the package of the descaler.
Storage
 1
To store the mains cord, wind it round the reel in
the base (Fig. 2).
Replacement
If the kettle, the base or the mains cord of the appliance
is damaged, take the base or the kettle to a service centre

to avoid a hazard.
You can purchase a new filter (order number 4222 459

Environment
Do not throw away the appliance with the normal 
household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at

help to preserve the environment (Fig. 7).
