using the appliance for the first time.
• To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the
protective cover fitted to the power plug of this appliance.
• This appliance has been designed specifically for the purpose of heating and boiling
quality drinking water and tea only. Under no circumstances should this product be used to
heat or boil any other liquids or foodstuffs.
• Do not place the appliance near the edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure
that the surface is level, clean and free of water.
• Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas burner, electric element or where it could
touch a heated oven.
• Keep the appliance clear of walls, curtains and other heat or steam sensitive materials.
Keep a minimum 8“ (20cm) of space on both sides of the appliance.
• Always ensure the appliance is properly assembled before connecting to a power outlet
and operating. Follow the instructions provided in this book.
• The glass jug must be used only with the power base supplied. Do not use on a range top.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote control system.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the handle for lifting and carrying the glass jug.
• Attach the jug lid securely to the glass jug before operation.
• Do not place anything on top of the jug lid.
• Do not open the Jug Lid during operation as scalding may occur.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving the glass jug containing hot liquid.
• Use caution when pouring water from the glass jug as boiling water and steam will
scald. Do not pour the water too quickly.
• To avoid scalding, never fill the glass jug past the ‚WATER MAX‘ (when heating
water) or ‚TEA MAX‘ (when brewing tea) line markings.
• Do not operate the appliance without water. Always fill the glass jug to at least the ‚MIN‘
marking. Should it be operated without water, the boil-dry protection will shut the power off
automatically. Allow the appliance to cool before refilling.
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the glass jug base, power
base, power cord or power plug in water or allow moisture to come in con-
tact with these parts.
• Do not remove the glass jug from the power base during heating or when the basket is
in operation. Ensure the appliance has completed the water heating or tea brewing cycle
before removing the glass jug from the power base.
