3. To switch on the kettle, press the On/Off
switch to position 1. (CAUTION: Do not place
downward pressure on the switch). When the

4. Pour slowly and carefully. If you wish to re-
boil, please allow a minute for the kettle to cool
down.
Warning:
If the kettle has just boiled it will be full
of steam that will escape if the lid is
opened.
IMPORTANT:
Do not open the lid when steam is
coming out of the spout. Before pouring or
filling always remember to disconnect from
electricity.
Note:
If the kettle is switched on when empty or
with insufficient water, then the kettle will switch
off automatically to protect against dry boiling.
Wait ±15minutes until the heating element cools
down, refill with tap water and use as normal. This
protection function is not designed for regular use,
as it will shorten the life of the element. If the kettle is
overfilled, boiling water may be ejected. The kettle
is only to be used with the stand provided (cordless
models only). The appliance must not be immersed
in liquid during cleaning. If the supply cord is
damaged, the manufacturer or its service agent or
a similarly qualified person must replace it in order
to avoid a hazard.
