IF THE KETTLE DOES BOIL DRY
If the kettle is operated in accordance with instructions for use, it is unlikely that the kettle will
boil dry. However, in the event that the kettle does boil dry, it is protected by a boil dry, fail-safe
device which will switch the kettle off automatically on sensing a boil dry situation and keep it
switched off until the kettle is refilled with at least the minimum amount of water. Always allow
the kettle to cool for half an hour before reuse if the kettle has boiled dry.
FILTER INSTRUCTIONS
A mesh filter has been integrated into the kettle to reduce the amount of scale residues
entering your beverages or food. The filter is removable for cleaning. To reduce scale
build-up, empty out any residual water after boiling.
How often the filter should be cleaned will vary according to where you live and how often
you use your kettle. Filter should be cleaned whenever there are noticeable deposits left
on the filter and especially if the rate of pouring decreases.
FILTER REMOVAL/CLEANING/REFITTING
Important: The kettle must be switched off, disconnected from the power outlet and
allowed to cool down completely prior to removing or refitting the filter. Do not use
excessive force, as this might damage the filter or the lid.
1. Empty the kettle and lift lid.
2. Using your finger, push on the filter through the spout to remove.
You may have to hold kettle while removing filter.
3. To clean the filter, rinse under a tap while brushing it gently with a
soft brush.
4. To refit filter, once again hold filter with index finger and thumb.
Gently push filter back into the kettle until you hear a click. The
filter is now reattached. Gently tug on filter to ensure filter is
attached properly.
5. Rinse out kettle with fresh water and it’s ready for use.
