General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
• Filling:
Lift the kettle off the power base to fill it. Never fill the kettle while it
sits on its base or while it is switched on to avoid spillage on the connector. If
the power base unit becomes wet, unplug it before wiping it dry.
• Do not overfill
the kettle to avoid splattering and ejection of boiling water.
Make sure the water level is between the minimum and maximum levels.
• Spout:
Position the kettle so the spout is directed away from you.
• Filter:
Do not operate the kettle without the filter fitted. Never leave the filter
loose in the kettle, it must sit securely in place in front of the spout. Never
remove or refit the filter when the kettle contains hot water.

Before turning on the power, make sure the kettle is
located properly on the power base and the lid is securely closed, otherwise
it may not switch off.
