BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Fill the kettle with water to the ‘max’ level, boil, discard the water, and then rinse. Do this three
times, to remove any dust, residues, etc., from the kettle.
• Ensure the lter is in place; otherwise the kettle may not switch off and may spit water from
the spout.
POSITIONING
• Place the base on a stable, level surface.
• Route the cable so it does not overhang, and cannot be caught or tripped over.
• Wind excess cable beneath the base.
FILLING
Caution: If the kettle has just boiled it will be full of steam. Keep hands clear as steam will
escape from the kettle when opening the lid.
• Remove the kettle from the power base.
• Remove the lid.
• Fill the kettle with at least 2 cups of water.
• Do not ll above the ‘max’ line. If overlled, the kettle may spit boiling water.
• Replace the lid.
• Check the lid is fully closed or the kettle may not switch off when it boils.
SWITCHING ON
Caution: Keep clear, as steam will escape from the spout when boiling.
• Plug the power cord into the wall power outlet and switch it on.
• Place the kettle on the power base – take care not to spill any water.
• Press the ON / OFF switch down.
• The kettle will heat up.
SWITCHING OFF
• When the water boils, the kettle will switch itself off.
• To switch off manually, lift the ON / OFF switch or lift the kettle from the power base and
replace it. The ON / OFF switch will pop up.
GENERAL
• Remove the kettle from the power base before pouring.
• To avoid the risk of splashing, pour slowly and do not over-tilt the kettle.
• Do not tilt the kettle backwards as water might get into the control area.
• If this happens, empty any remaining water and allow the kettle dry before further use – sit it
somewhere warm for 12 hours.
• When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the power base. This is the steam used to
switch the kettle off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents under the
kettle. This is normal.
USING WITH INSUFFICIENT WATER
• Using the kettle with insufcient water will shorten the life of the element.
• If the kettle is accidently switched on when it does not contain sufcient water, a boil-dry
cut-out will switch the kettle off.
• To prevent the kettle cycling on and off, remove it from the power base and the boil switch will
pop up.
• Sit the kettle on a stable heat resistant surface until it has fully cooled down.
• Do not ll the kettle with water until it is cold, or it may spit.
