IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic
safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Unplug from outlet when either the
appliance or the display clock is not in use
and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning appliance.
3. Before connecting the Electric Kettle to the
power supply, check that the voltage
indicated on the appliance corresponds with
the voltage in your home. If this is not the
case, contact your dealer and do not use
the Electric Kettle.
4. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle or
knobs.
5. To protect against fire, electric shock and
injury to persons, DO NOT IMMERSE
CORD, PLUG, CONTROL PANEL, BASE,
GLASS KETTLE in water or other liquids.
6. This appliance is not intended for use by
children or by persons with reduced
physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
The appliance is not a toy.
7. Do not operate the appliance without water
in it to avoid damaging the heat elements.
8. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance has malfunctioned or has been
damaged in any manner. Return appliance
to the nearest Cuisinart Authorized Service
Facility for examination, repair or
adjustment.
9. Ensure that the Electric Kettle is used on a
firm and flat surface out of reach of children
– this will prevent the kettle from overturning
and causing damage or injury.
10. The use of accessory attachments not
recommended by Cuisinart may result in
fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
11. The Electric Kettle is for household use
only. Do not use outdoors.
12. Do not let power cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
13. Always take care to pour boiling water
slowly and carefully without tipping the
kettle too fast.
14. Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
15. Be careful when refilling the Programmable
5-Cup Percolator & Electric Kettle if it is
hot.
16. Always put kettle on power base, then
plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect,
turn control to OFF, then remove plug from
wall outlet.
CAUTION:
Do not operate your appliance in
an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet.
When storing any appliance in an appliance
garage, always unplug the unit from the
electrical outlet. Be sure the appliance does
not touch the interior wall of the appliance
garage, and the door does not touch the unit
as it closes. Contact could cause the unit to
turn on, creating a risk of fire. CAUTION: In
order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent
resetting of the THERMAL CUT-OUT, this
appliance must not be supplied through an
external switching device, such as a timer, or
connected to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by the utility.
17. Do not use appliance for other than its
intended purpose.
18. While water is boiling, or just after the
water has been boiled, avoid contact with
steam from the spout. Always ensure the
lid is closed and do not lift it while the
water is boiling. Scalding may occur if the
lid is removed during the brewing cycle.
19. Twist-lock lid securely onto kettle before
serving any beverages.
20. The kettle is designed for use with this
appliance. It must never be used on a
range top.
