BEFORE USING YOUR KETTLE
If you are using the kettle for the first time, it is recommended that you clean your kettle before use by boiling
a full kettle of water twice and then discarding the water.
OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE
1.
Open the lid, fill with the desired amount of water to the water kettle. Always fill the kettle between the
minimum and maximum marks inside the kettle. Too little water will result in the kettle switching off
before the water has boiled.
NOTE:
Do not fill the water over the maximum level, as water may spill out of the spout when boiling.
Ensure that the lid is firmly in place before connecting the power cord to the outlet.
2.
Connect the plug into a power outlet. Press the switch downwards on the handle. The indicator will light
up. Then start to boil the water. The kettle will switch off automatically once the water has boiled. You can
shut off the power by pressing the switch button upwards at any moment during boiling water.
NOTE:
Ensure that switch is clear of obstructions and the lid is firmly closed. The kettle will not turn off if
the switch is constrained or the lid hasn’t been closed.
3.
Take the plug out of the outlet. Lift the kettle then pour the water.
NOTE:
operate carefully when pouring the water from your kettle as boiling water will scald.
4.
The kettle will not re-boil until the switch is pressed downwards. Allow to cool for 30~40 seconds before
reopening to boil water.
NOTE:
Ensure power supply is turned off when kettle is not in use.
5.
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to operate without water; the boil-dry protection will
automatically switch it off. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool before filling with cold water and
re-boiling.
