2.
Place the base on a flat, stable, heat-resistant
clean and cool surface.
3.
Fill the kettle with the desired quantity of
water
(fig 5).
USING THE APPLIANCE
• Do not open the lid while the water is boiling.
Position the kettle and its supply cord well to
the rear of the work surface.
Do not place the kettle on or near slippery or
hot surfaces or allow the cord to hang above a
source of heat (cooking hob, gas cooker).
Your kettle must be used only with the base
belonging to it.
You can fill via the spout, which helps keep the
filter clear. Always fill with sufficient water to
cover the heating element (or the bottom of the
kettle).
Never fill the kettle while it is on its base.
The kettle must always be used with its own
ant-scale filter.
Do not fill above the maximum level or below
the minimum. If the kettle is overfilled, the
water may boil over.
Do not use without water.
Check that the lid is properly closed before use.
4.
Place the kettle on its base. Plug into the
supply
(fig 6).
5.
To turn on the kettle, press on the on/off
button at the top or bottom of the handle,
depending on the model
(fig 7).
6.
Depending on the model, an indicator light
may come on.
7.
The kettle will turn off automatically as soon
as the water comes to the boil. You can stop it
manually before lifting it off its base to pour.
Depending on the model, the indicator
light will go out when the kettle switches off
or is switched off. Ensure that the kettle is
switched off before lifting off its base.
On first use we recommend that you discard
the water as it may contain some dust. Rinse the
kettle and filter separately.
Connect the kettle only to an earthed socket.
If you need to use an extension cord, this must
have an earthed socket and be suitably rated.
Ensure that the cord and extension do not trail
to avoid any falls.
Do not leave water in the kettle after use.
