counter top or table top where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped
over

INSTRUCTIONS
Remove all packaging from the kettle and its
power base. Before using the kettle for the

discard the boiled water and rinse the kettle
out with fresh cold water.
Connecting to the mains supply
• Check that the voltage marked on the

• Never use the plug without the fuse
cover fitted. Ensure replacement fuse is
the same current value as the original.
Replacement fuses are available and
should be ASTA approved to BS 1362
•
NOTE:
when you lift the kettle from
the base, you will see drops of
moisture on the surface of the power
base. This is the steam used to switch
the kettle off automatically, which then
condenses and escapes through vents
in the underside of the kettle.
This is perfectly normal, and should not
be cause for alarm or returning the
kettle
