8. Return the Kettle to the Power Base or place on a heat resistant surface
after use.
9. If the Kettle is accidently switched on when empty, the thermostat
will automatically shut it off to prevent the Kettle from overheating.
If this situation occurs, unplug the Power Base and let the Kettle cool
before refilling.
10. It is recommended that the Power Cord be disconnected from the wall
outlet when not in use.
DO NOT
attempt to connect any other appliance
to the Power Base or tamper with the connector in any way.
CARE AND CLEANING
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the outside of the kettle.
DO NOT
use abrasive
cleaners. Dry thoroughly before use.
DO NOT ALLOW WATER TO ENTER THE POWER BASE
DO NOT IMMERSE KETTLE OR POWER BASE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
Descaling
Under normal use, a deposit of scale may form on the inside of any kettle. With
the Glass Kettle the scale will be more visible. Therefore, the Kettle may need to
be descaled more often. This scale build-up can be delayed by pouring out old
water and refilling before each use.
1. Empty Kettle and allow to cool completely.
2. Scale which has accumulated inside the Kettle can be removed by boiling
equal parts of white vinegar and water (2 cups of each is recommended).
Once the water has boiled, allow mixture to stand overnight. Empty out mix-
ture and fill Kettle to the MAX level with fresh water. Bring water to a boil
and discard. For heavy scale build-up, repeat this process.
GLASS BREAKAGE
The highest quality tempered glass is used in the manufacture of this Kettle.
This material is quite durable. However, glass is still breakable under certain
conditions. To ensure long lasting use, prevent the glass from contacting hard
objects such as faucets, cabinets or metal utensils.
