29、al of the lid or whistle in normal use 3.7 f u rn it u re handles and knobs 3.8 base diameter dimension, measured on the exterior base of the water kettle, across the maximum circumference of contact when placed on a flat surface, or across the maximum circle which fits into the area of the base 4 M
30、aterial Water kettles shall be made of material of a type and purity that, under normal conditions of use, present no toxic hazards nor in any way affect the organoleptic qualities of food prepared in them. 5 Construction 5.1 General When empty and also when filled to its capacity and positioned on
31、a 5“ inclined plane with its centre of gravity in the least favourable position, the kettle shall be stable. All components shall be finished smooth and free from burrs, splinters or sharp edges. The body shall be watertight up to and including boiling. 5.2 Handle It shall be possible to grip the ha
32、ndle for its normal purpose without the hand or fingers coming into contact with any surface whose temperature exceeds the values given in 6.2.3 for the relevant materials. The handle or handgrip of the kettle and the lid knob shall be of a material rigid up to 150 “C (EN 12983-1:2000, annex B). The
33、 shape of the handle or handgrip shall provide a secure grip to prevent backward and forward slipping in the hand and shall be so designed that it is possible to handle the kettle without the users hand coming into contact any metal part of the kettle body or handle brackets. 5.3 Knob It shall be po
34、ssible to grip the knob(s) for its (their) normal purpose without the hand or fingers coming into contact with any surface whose temperature exceeds the values given in 6.2.3 for the relevant materials. 5.4 Lid When the water kettle is tilted through 90“ from the horizontal in the direction of pouri
35、ng, with the lid correctly seated, the lid shall remain in position and clear of the users hand. 5.5 Whistle The whistle shall remain in place while the water is boiling and when whistling. 5.6 Spout The spout, if not integral, shall be joined to the body in a leakproof manner. The spout itself shal
36、l be leakproof. 6 EN 13750:2002 (E) 5.7 Base The base, if not integral, shall be joined to the body in a leakproof manner 5.8 Venting The kettle shall be vented, e.g. by the spout so that escaping steam does not reach the users hand when lifting or emptying the kettle. 5.9 Pouring When tested as des
37、cribed in annex A, the liquid shall flow cleanly from the spout.
