GETTING STARTED
As with all metal surfaces in contact with high temperatures, please take caution when handling
Le Creuset kettles heated on the stove.
ENAMEL ON STEEL KETTLES
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove all packaging and labels. Wash the kettle in hot, soapy water. Rinse well and dry
thoroughly.
HEATING TIPS
Le Creuset enamel on steel kettles can be used with all heat sources, including induction.
When filling the kettle with water, only fill water above the first layer of holes on the interior of
the spout (see diagram on box for more information).
For efficient and safe boiling, always use burner a similar in size to the base of the kettle.
TOOLS TO USE
We encourage you to use an oven mitt or silicone Cool Tool™ to avoid burns or injuries from
heat or hot steam.
CLEANING AND CARE
Do not bang the kettle down onto a stove’s surface or work surface. Repeated banging may
damage the exterior enamel.
Do not place the kettle on the heat source without having water in the kettle. Never leave a
kettle simmering for long periods on any heat source; it may boil dry, which can result in
overheating and damage to the base and enamel.
Do not leave water standing in a kettle when it is not in use. A buildup of scale may occur and
reduce efficiency.
Before pouring from your kettle, remove it from the burner and ensure the handle is in the
upright position.
Le Creuset proudly uses heat-resistant plastic on our handles and whistles.
