CLEAN YOUR ELECTRIC KETTLE BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Make sure your first cup of hot water is as good as can be by cleaning your VillaWare ®
Electric Kettle before its first use. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Wash the inside of the kettle and lid with mild detergent and water. Rinse each
thoroughly. Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or any other liquid.
These items are not dishwasher safe.
2. Fill the electric kettle with fresh water to the “MAX” water level mark on water window.
Boil the water, following the directions below for use of your kettle.
3. When the water and unit have cooled, discard the water. Rinse with cold water and
repeat.
4. Your electric kettle is now ready for use.

power outlet.
Pull the cord out of the storage compartment on the base,

adjusting it to the needed/desired length (Figure 1).
To fill the kettle with water, open the lid and pour water below

the “MAX” marker and above the “MIN” marker. The kettle’s
maximum capacity is 1.7 litres.
NOTE:
Do not exceed the “MAX” marker indicated on the
kettle’s dual water windows. Your VillaWare
®
electric kettle has a dual water window,
one on each side of the unit, making it easy to monitor the water level for both right
and left handed users.
Adjust the temperature by turning the variable temperature dial

to select one of the following temperatures: 40°C, 60°C, 80°C,
90°C or 100°C (Boil) (Figure 2).
Push the power button on “
5. ” to initiate the heating or boiling
cycle. The power light will illuminate.
Once the water reaches the desired temperature, the unit will beep 3 times reminding
6.
you to decide whether to select the keep warm function or let it automatically shut off.
After the 3 beeps, you will have approximately 5 seconds to make your selection.
While the water is heating, or the unit is on the keep warm setting, the VillaWare
7.
®
electric kettle has a temperature memory which allows you to remove it from the base
for up to 2 minutes to serve while maintaining the selected temperature setting. Once
kettle is placed back in the base, it will continue to heat until it reaches the desired
temperature.
If you wish to select the keep warm function, your VillaWare
8.
®
electric kettle will
maintain the selected temperature for up to 30 minutes after the heating process has
finished. The amber light ring will stay illuminated while the keep warm function is
active. You can repeat this selection for an additional 30 minutes at the end of every
30-minute period.
