The cord length of this appliance was
selected to reduce safety hazards that
may occur with a longer cord. If more
cord length is needed, an extension cord
may be used. It should be rated not less
than 15 amperes, 220 volts, and should
have Underwriters Laboratories or
appropriate agency listing. When using
a longer cord, be sure that it does not
drape over a working area or dangle
where it could be pulled on or tripped
over.
WARNING
: Do not heat an empty
Kettle! The concealed heating element
in the bottom of the Kettle is protected
by an automatic safety device. If your
kettle is accidentally plugged in without
being filled or is allowed to boil dry, it will
automatically repeat a cycle of turning
off, cooling down, and coming back on
unless unplugged. If this happens,
unplug the Kettle, fill with cold water,
and wait a few minutes before replacing
it on the Base and plugging in.
1. Before first use, rinse the interior of
the Kettle. Fill the Kettle at a faucet. You
do not have to fill it all the way to the top
if you just want to boil a small amount of
water. However, the minimum amount
you must fill it to prevent the safety
thermostat from cutting it off is 2 cups.
Do not fill beyond the MAX FILL line
inside the spout. Put the kettle on a level
surface to check that you you haven’t
filled beyond this line. Do not overfill.
2. Always use the Base and Kettle on a
flat, level surface. For FIRST USE,
discard initially boiled water and then
repeat the process for usable boiled
water.
3. The Kettle will turn off automatically
when water is ready. You may leave the
Kettle on the unplugged Base. Though
the Kettle has raised feet for easy
serving at a counter or table, we suggest
using a trivet or pad.
4. This Kettle is designed to tilt forward
when full for easy pouring. Use an oven
mitt or pot holder to steady or support
the bottom of a full, hot Kettle.
1. Before cleaning, be sure the Base is
unplugged and the Kettle has cooled
completely. Empty any remaining water
from the Kettle.
2. Wash the inside of the Kettle with
soapy water and rinse. NEVER
IMMERSE THE KETTLE IN WATER OR
OTHER LIQUIDS. Do NOT place in a
dishwasher.
3. Wipe the exterior of the Kettle and
Base with a damp cloth or sponge and
dry. Do not use abrasive soaps,
cleansers, or scouring pads on any part
of the Kettle. Store the cord by winding it
around the Cord Wrap on the underside
of the Base and feeding the plug end
through one of the notches.
4. Over time, the Kettle may heat up but
won’t boil; this is due to scaling and
mineral deposits which may build up
inside the Kettle depending on your use
and the hardness of the water in your
area. When this happens, it’
s time for descaling. Use a scale/lime
remover and follow its manufacturer’s
directions.
