● Position the kettle on the power base.
● Plug the kettle into a mains supply socket.
● To start boiling the kettle, press the on/off switch.
● The power indicator light will illuminate, and the kettle will start to boil.
● Never open the lid or touch the stainless-steel surface during boiling.
Please beware of escaping steam from the lid of the kettle when in use.
SWITCHING OFF
● When the water has boiled, the kettle will switch off automatically. You can stop the boiling process at
any time by lifting the on/off switch to the off position.
BOIL-DRY PROTECTION
● Should you accidentally switch on an empty kettle - the boil-dry protection will automatically switch off
the power. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool down before filling with cold water.
GENERAL
● Always remove the kettle from the base before pouring.
● To avoid the risk of splashing, pour slowly and do not over-tilt the kettle.
● Do not tilt the kettle backwards - water might get on to the control area. If this happens, let the kettle dry
thoroughly before use – place it somewhere warm for 12 hours.
● When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the base. Do not worry – it’s the steam used to switch
the kettle off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents under the kettle.
● You may see some discolouration on the floor of the kettle. Again, do not worry – it is due to the
bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
● This appliance is for household use only and is not user serviceable.
● Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical service department or
return to the supplier if servicing is necessary.
● Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
● Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid or hold it under a running tap to clean.
● To remove stubborn spots/marks, wipe the surfaces with a cloth slightly dampened in soapy water or
mild non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse and dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth.
● Unplug the base from the wall socket, and let the kettle cool down before cleaning.
● Wipe the kettle, inside and out, with a damp cloth. You may use a little household detergent, but if you
do, rinse well to avoid tainting the water.
