A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the tea kettle.
If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
The extension cord, if used, should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
Before First Use
1. Become familiar with the various parts of the tea kettle (Fig. A) and read and
follow the instructions carefully.
Your tea kettle will be shipped fully assembled. The infuser will be attached
to the cover and the cover will be on the tea kettle.
2. Prior to making your first pot of tea, it is suggested that you boil water in the
tea kettle to thoroughly rinse the appliance. It may contain some manufac-
turing oil or residue.
Do not use any soap or cleaning compounds in the
water.
Always be sure the tea kettle is unplugged from the wall outlet before filling
with water.
Remove the cover and the infuser (it is attached to the cover) from the tea
kettle by holding the tea kettle handle with one hand. Then use your other
hand to grasp the cover knob. Pull the cover off. Next, fill the tea kettle to
the top of the fill mark, the triangular shaped rib that is inside the spout (see
Fig. B). Then place the cover (with the infuser still attached) back on the tea
kettle and plug unit into wall outlet. When water begins to boil, unplug from
wall outlet and carefully discard heated water.
DO NOT IMMERSE TEA KETTLE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
Timer Operating Instructions
Note: The timer works independently from the unit; it does not turn the unit on or off.
1. Activate the timer by holding the button (Fig. C) down until 00 is visible in the display screen.
2. Press the button once for each individual minute or hold the button down to increase the display
time rapidly until you have reached the desired time. The timer can be set for 1 to 30 minutes.
The timer will automatically begin counting down approximately two seconds after it is set. Note:
Shortly after you depress the button, the time remaining will flash on the screen. It will continue to
flash until the time has elapsed.
To reset the timer to zero, press the timer button for about two seconds.
3. When there is just one minute left on the timer, you will hear two beeps to alert you that
time is almost up. In addition, the seconds remaining will now be displayed.
When the set time has expired, the timer will beep five times. After about one minute,
the display screen will go blank.
Note: If for some reason the timer does not beep, this can be corrected by simply remov-
ing the battery, wiping it clean, and then reinserting it. (See page 4 for battery removal
instructions.)
How To Use the Tea Kettle
1. Remove the cover/infuser assembly from the tea kettle and set it aside. (Refer to the
Before First Use
section above for instruc-
tions on removal of the cover/infuser assembly).
2.
Always be sure the tea kettle is unplugged from the wall outlet before filling with water.
Fill the tea kettle with 2 to 5 cups* of water. The maximum fill level is indicated inside the spout with a triangle (see Fig. B). Do
not fill beyond this triangle. Overfilling may result in hot water boiling out of the spout. Do not heat less than 2 cups* of water.
In order for the thermometer probe to get an accurate temperature reading of the water, it must be inserted into at least 2 cups* of
water.
3. Detach the infuser from the cover by rotating the cover counterclockwise until you hear it click. Then pull the cover off the rim of
the infuser and set the infuser aside.
*One cup equals 8 ounces.
