Switching on
• Plug the power base into the mains socket.
• Place the kettle on the power base.
• Press the ON/OFF switch down (fig.5) to switch the kettle on.
• The power-on indicator lights will illuminate.
• The kettle will automatically switch off once the water is boiled
(the ON/OFF switch will click upwards and the lights will
switch off ).
• To turn the kettle off before the water boils, you may move the
ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position, or simply lift the kettle
from its base - it will switch off and the switch will return to
the OFF position automatically.
Pouring
• Remove the kettle from the power base and carefully pour out
the water. Do not tilt the kettle suddenly or pour water out at
too sharp an angle.
• When you lift the kettle from the base, you may see moisture
on the top surface of the base. Condensation on the base is
perfectly normal, and should not be a cause for alarm.
Safety devices
1) Automatic ON/OFF switch
Your kettle is fitted with an ON/OFF switch which automatically
switches off once the water has boiled. If the kettle has just
boiled, wait a minute or so before re-boiling the kettle. Do not
attempt to hold the ON/OFF switch in the “on” position or
adjust the switch mechanism.
2) Safety cut-out
If the kettle is switched ON with too little or no water, it is
protected against damage by a safety cut-out device which will
switch off the power.
If this cut-out operates, disconnect the kettle from the mains
supply and leave to cool down before refilling with cold water
(otherwise the element could be damaged). It will reset
automatically when cooled down.
3) If the kettle is lifted from the base while operating (ON), it will
automatically switch off.
