NOTE. This kettle uses the latest high quality automatic on/
off switch. It is operated by the steam, which is produced
from the boiling water. The switch unit is mounted in the
base of the kettle. Steam produced from the boiling water
activates the on/off switch mechanism, which is located
below the lower handle area. There may be a small amount
of condensation left on the base unit at this point. This is
normal and not a reason for concern. If this occurs after
use, wipe this condensation dry with a dry towel.
