Energy saving hints and tips
A Oster
®
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.
If the kettle boils dry
If the kettle is operated with insufficient water a built in fail-safe device will automatically
switch it off.
• Unplug your kettle and allow it to cool. When it has cooled down sufficiently the safety
device will reset itself.
• Once the safety device has reset, lift the kettle and place it onto the power base
again, and then refill your kettle with cold water and use it as normal.
Cleaning
CAUTION: Always unplug the kettle from the mains supply socket and allow it to
completely cool down before cleaning or descaling it. Do not immerse the kettle, power
base or power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
1. Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a damp cloth and then polish with a soft
dry cloth. Do not use steel wool pads or harsh/abrasive cleaners.
2. Descale your kettle regularly to keep it working efficiently. Use a proprietary descaling
product following the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
