Important Safety Notes
Safety and Use Guide
Raven is meant for home use. Please read this guide completely
before using. Improper handling may result in an accident.
Please keep this guide for future reference.
• Check your kettle to ensure that all parts are accounted for and installed
correctly. Do not use if parts are missing.
• Do not use kettle if you see any sign of cracking, chipping, denting, or any
other abnormality.
• This kettle is only intended for boiling water and steeping tea. Do not use with
other liquids.
• Keep kettle away from children while boiling water and soon after boiling water.
Water Levels:
• The max fill line (1.0 L / 33.8 oz) is marked on the inside surface just below
the handle. Do not fill above this line.
• Only boil between
1
/
3
- 1.0 L (11.3 - 33.8 oz) of water. Under boiling and
over boiling the kettle may lead to discoloration, damage, melting of parts,
or burn injury.
• Do not heat water with tea filter inside kettle as it may cause over boiling.
• Do not steep tea in less than 0.5 L (17 oz) of water for best extraction.
• Do not over boil your kettle. Since the pour spout and lid ventilation holes are
small, there is a risk of water boiling out from these openings.
• Never heat kettle while empty. Dry boiling may deform or damage the kettle,
or cause damage to your cooking range and increase the risk of fire.
Steeping Tea:
• Remove tea filter from kettle before pouring.
• Remove tea filter by grabbing the handle. If tea handle is hot, use pot holder.
Do not grab any other part of the filter when removing, or shortly after
removing from hot water.
• Use caution when removing the tea filter from the kettle. The inside of the
filter may be hot and may cause burn injury.
General Usage:
• Hold lid while pouring.
• Ensure thermometer is fully seated in the lid.
• Do not align lid ventilation holes with spout. Hot water may come out of these
holes while pouring. If this happens, carefully remove and re-orient the lid.
• Do not use if large gaps exist between the lid and kettle. Hot water may come
out of these gaps. Ensure that the lid is secure and fits snugly onto kettle.
• Do not put hand over lid area or remove lid while kettle is still heating or
when water is boiling. Hot steam may be released and cause burn injury.
• Do not grab kettle body after heating. This could result in burn injury.
• The handle may become hot while boiling water or soon after boiling water.
Please use a pot holder to avoid burn injury.
• If the handle cap is loose, screw the cap back into the handle. Do not use
kettle if cap remains loose and handle weight is exposed.
• Do not shake kettle up and down, side to side, or twist the handle.
This may loosen the handle.
• The spout contains a functional sharp edge and care should be taken
during use.
Preparation Before Use:
• Apply liquid dish soap to a soft sponge. Wash and rinse kettle
thoroughly.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
• Hand wash kettle after each use, using only liquid dish soap.
Do not use chlorine, bleach, or other chemicals to clean the kettle.
Let air or towel dry thoroughly.
• Using a coarse sponge, brush, or other rough surface will scratch the finish.
• Do not submerge any part of the kettle in water. The body, handle, or
thermometer may become damaged.
• Do not leave tea in kettle for extended period of time. This may discolor the
inside and leave undesirable residue.
• White spots may appear as you keep using the product. This is caused by
magnesium and calcium residue contained in tap water. This is not harmful to
your health. Wash and dry kettle thoroughly after each use to avoid.
• Allowing traces of salt or oil to remain in contact from other products made
of steel or aluminum may cause corrosion to develop.
• If any sign of corrosion is discovered, apply some compounding polish on
a soft sponge and rub. Rinse thoroughly afterwards.
Using Raven On Various Cooking Ranges:
• Wipe away any water on the bottom of the kettle before heating.
• Take care to place the kettle at the center of the heater.
• Always point the spout away from you when heating and boiling.
•
Electric Ranges: Do not use a burner that is larger than the bottom diameter
of the kettle. Excessive heating may melt or damage the handle and lid.
•
Gas Ranges: Do not spread the flame beyond the bottom of the kettle body.
The handle and lid may over heat and melt if the flame is too large.
