Other Consumer Safety Information
When using electric appliances, basic
safety precautions should always be fol-
lowed, 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 touch-
ing 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 ket-
tle in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near chil-
dren.
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 appli-
ance malfunctions or is dropped or dam-
aged in any manner. Call our toll-free cus-
tomer 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.
8. Do not use outdoors.
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.
11. To disconnect electric kettle, turn any
control to OFF (O) then remove plug
from wall outlet. Never pull on cord as
this may damage the cord and eventual-
ly 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 interior and void warranty.
14. Do not allow kettle to boil dry.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for house-
hold 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 appli-
ance was selected to reduce the hazards of
becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary an approved
extension cord may be used. The electrical
rating of the extension cord must be equal
to or greater than the rating of the kettle.
Care must be taken to arrange the exten-
sion cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or accidentally tripped
over.
