by winding around the base to give the correct cord
length to reach the plug socket to be used (g. 4).
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or
touch hot surfaces (for example the top B).
Filling
- Remove the kettle from the base unit before lling.
- Open lid and ll kettle to desired level.
Do not ll with less than 0.3 litres of water
to prevent the kettle running dry while operating;
misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element.
Do not ll with more than 1.7 litres of water
(up to the MAX level). If the kettle is overlled,
there is a risk that boiling water may be ejected
causing burns.
Switching on
- Plug the power base into the mains socket.
- Place kettle on power base.
- Press the ON/OFF switch down (g. 5) to switch the
kettle on.
- The pilot light will switch on.
- The kettle will automatically switch o once the water
is boiled (the ON/OFF switch will click upwards and the
lights will switch o ).
- To turn the kettle o before the water boils, you may
move the ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position,
or simply lift the kettle from its base it will switch
o and the switch will return to the OFF position
automatically.
Pouring
- Remove the kettle from the power base and carefully
pour out the water. Do not tilt the kettle suddenly or
pour water out at too sharp an angle.
- When you lift the kettle from the base, you may see
moisture on the top surface of the base. Condensation
on the base is perfectly normal, and should not be a
cause for alarm.
Please note: Empty the kettle after each use. Rinse
the kettle with fresh water if you have not used for more
than two days. To reduce energy consumption and waste of
water, use only the amount of water you need.
SAFETY DEVICES
1) Automatic ON/OFF switch:
Your kettle is tted with an ON/OFF switch which
automatically switches o once the water has boiled.
If the kettle has just boiled, wait a minute or so before
re-boiling the kettle. Do not attempt to hold the ON/
OFF switch in the on position or adjust the switch
mechanism.
2) Safety cut-out:
If the kettle is switched ON with too little or no
water, it is protected against damage by a safety cut-
out which will switch o the power. If this cut-out
operates, disconnect the kettle from the mains supply
and leave to cool down before relling with cold water
(otherwise the element could be damaged).
3) If kettle is lifted from base while operating (ON), it will
automatically switch o.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the kettle
- Allow the kettle to cool down fully and disconnect the
appliance from the mains before cleaning.
- Do not immerse the kettle or base in water.
- To maintain the precious nish of the appliance, we
recommend cleaning the outside of the appliance
with a damp cloth and water only.
- DO NOT use metal polish, ammable liquids or harsh
scouring agents.
- Ensure that all connectors and sockets are kept dry.
Scale
When the water is heated, the minerals in the water solidify,
making the water appear cloudy. As soon as you notice a
lm forming on the water, or, when cleaning the lter, if
you notice a lm on the walls or the element, descale the
kettle and its lter.
Scale lter
Your kettle is tted with a scale lter to prevent loose
particles of scale being poured into your beverage. This lter
is both removable and washable. You should remove and
clean the water lter when you notice any deposits being
left on the lter or if the pouring eciency is impaired.
Removing the scale lter
- Allow the kettle to cool down fully and disconnect the
appliance from the mains electrical supply. Make sure
that your hands are clean and free from soap, cream or
anything which might taint the water.
- Empty the kettle and remove the lter as shown in g.
