Kettle fontana5
Perfectly matching our toasters volcano5, ritterwerk now presents the first kettle in its more than 100 years of history.
The fontana5 kettle also tops its class in functional details and was awarded for its outstanding design. It has won the renowned red dot product design award 2013. This award is a seal of quality recognized worldwide for outstanding design. Instead of recycling old designs in retro, the user-friendliness does define the looks. Hence, also the kettle does bear the same Bauhaus elements typical of ritter products. Reduction to the essential. Long-lasting materials. Production on site.
The cordless kettle with 360° rotating base does have a heat-resistant high-quality acrylic housing. The double-sided indicator allows to easily read the water level. LED indicators show the set temperatures of 70°, 80°, 95° and 100° C. All safety requirements are fulfilled by overheating protection, boil-dry protection and automatic switch-off functions.

- Never immerse the base in water. Never leave the base out in the rain or subject it to any other form of moisture. If the base should fall into water, pull the plug out of the mains socket first and then remove the appliance from the water. Have the base inspected at an authorized service centre before using it again.

Special features
Four temperature settings
For the optimal enjoyment of black tea, green tea or coffee, the right preparation and above all the correct water temperature are crucial. With the four temperature settings 70°, 80°, 95°C and 100°C, you can set exactly the temperature that is needed. In addition, the set temperature is displayed by LEDs.
Housing made of acrylic glass
The outer casing is made of high-quality acrylic glass. This means that the kettle not only looks elegant, but is also heat-insulated to the outside. Fontana5 meets more than the existing requirements of the standard for hot surfaces for kettles. The combination of elegant look and perfect technical details.
Water level indicator on both sides
The water level indicator of the wireless container can be easily read from both sides even when filling - for left and right handed users.
Safety lid with locking mechanism
The lid is equipped with a locking mechanism which prevents accidental opening of the lid for safety reasons.
Limescale filter
The limescale filter is made of metal and can be removed for cleaning.
No dripping
The sharp spout edge ensures a comfortable pouring without annoying dripping.
Easy to fill and clean
With the wide-opening lid, not only filling the container under the tap is no problem, but also cleaning and descaling. In addition, the highly polished stainless steel heating base counteracts the limescale base. It is not easy to stick and remove easily.
Breakfast set
Together with the incomparably narrow toaster volcano5 and the energy-saving coffee machine cafena5, the colour-coordinated breakfast set is complete – of course "made in Germany".
