If the power cable is damaged, contact a De'Longhi authorized Service Centre. • If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may overflow. THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS • A short power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. • Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. • If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, grounding type cord, the extension should be a GROUNDING TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter-top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. • Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power power cord only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the power cord, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete power cord. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. 5
