Other Consumer Safety Information
When using electric appliances, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces or hot water.
Use handles or knobs. Care must be
taken as burns can occur from touching
hot parts or from spilled hot liquid.
3. To protect against fire, electric shock
and personal injury do not immerse
cord, plugs, power base or electric kettle
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 dam-
aged cord or plug, or after the appliance
malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Call our toll-free customer
assistance number for information on
examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer may
result in fire, electrical shock or personal
injury.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or
counter, or touch hot surfaces, including
the stove.
10. Do not place electric kettle on or near a hot
gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

outlet. Never pull on cord as this may
damage the cord and eventually cause
electric shock.
12. Do not use appliance for other than
intended use.
13. Do not use for other than heating water.
Other liquids or food will contaminate the

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not
operate another high wattage appliance on the
same circuit with the kettle.
The length of the cord used on this appliance
was selected to reduce the hazards of becom-
ing tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary an approved
extension cord may be used. The electrical rat-
ing of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the rating of the kettle. Care must
be taken to arrange the extension cord so that
it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or acci-
dentally tripped over.
