using your kettle
If this kettle is filled above the maximum level mark, hot water may be ejected
from the spout during boiling. Beware of steam coming from the spout or lid
especially during refilling. Never open the lid when the kettle is boiling.
1.
With the kettle switched off, plug the power base into a suitable power outlet.
2.
Remove the kettle from the power base before filling it with water. Do not fill the kettle
through the spout.
3.
Open the lid and fill the kettle with water. Don’t overfill the kettle and always ensure
that there is sufficient water in the kettle to completely cover the element. Always
check the water level when the kettle is positioned on its power base.
4.
Close the lid and then switch the kettle on. Make sure that the lid is closed correctly
to ensure safe operation. The water level window will illuminate blue and the water
will start to heat up.
5.
When the water reaches boiling point, the kettle will switch off automatically and the
water level window illumination will go out.
6.
You may also switch the kettle off manually at any time by moving the switch to the
off position.
Always use caution when carrying your kettle when it is full of boiling water and when
pouring it.
Energy saving hints and tips
A Breville kettle, if used correctly, is a very energy efficient device. Why not try some of
these energy saving tips:
• Only boil the water you need. Overfilling your kettle by one cup is the equivalent to
using an energy saving light bulb for one hour!
• It is not always necessary to re-boil your kettle. For example, one litre of water will
still be at 90°C after five minutes - the perfect temperature for a cup of coffee.
