IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug, base or appliance in
water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to an authorized
service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
7. The use of an accessory not recommended for use with this appliance may cause
injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
11. Do not use the kettle other than for heating water.
12. Scalding may occur if the lid is opened during the boiling cycle.
13. Water will remain hot for some time after boiling and can present a scalding hazard.
14. Ensure that the kettle is properly located on the base before switching it on.
15. Use the kettle only with the base supplied.
16. Remove the kettle from its base before filling or pouring.
17. Do not attempt to remove the kettle from its base until it is switched off,
either manually or automatically.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used
if care is exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used follow these guidelines:
A. The marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
B. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord.
C. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
