4. OPERATION
Fill the tank with cold water. There is a maximum level marked on the inside of the tank – do not fill
above this mark.
Replace the cover and switch the unit on. The heating lamp indicator should now light up and the unit
will begin to heat the water (see table below for heat up times).
Once the water temperature reaches approximately 97° c, the auto-thermostat switches the
main heating element off and the ‘keep warm’ element on. This maintains the water at the correct
temperature.
continue to draw from the unit until approximately ¼ of the tank remains before adding further cold
water. The addition of the volume of cold water will switch the main element on and re-heat the water.
Thermal Cut-out
The appliance is fitted with a thermal cut-out. If this is activated, the unit will turn itself off. The unit must
be unplugged before it can be reset. To reset the appliance, wait until the unit has cooled down. The reset
button is located on the underside of the unit.
If resetting this thermal cut-out does not switch the unit back on, please contact us.
5. cARE ANd MAINTENANcE
This unit must be cleaned thoroughly after each use. This is in addition to a weekly clean using white
vinegar or any de-scaler suitable for stainless steel kettles to remove mineral deposits (please follow de-
scaler manufacturer’s instructions). If these deposits are not removed, pitting of the metal can occur and
may result in damage to the appliance.
Cleaning after use
• Ensure unit is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.
• Clean the tank, lid and body etc and dry them with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the appliance is to function properly, the heating plate located in the base of the tank must be free
of limescale.
• To clean the tap, move a brush up and down through the tap, then insert the brush through the
opening inside the appliance to clean the tap connection. Wash the tap handle in hot soapy water
and rinse. Replace the tap.
• Do not use baking soda to clean the appliance as it can discolour and pit the metal.
