INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
USING YOUR KETTLE
It is important that you read these instructions before
using your kettle for the first time.
1. Open the lid of the kettle, fill with tap water to
the desired level. (Min. capacity is 0.5L and max.
capacity is 1.0L). In hard water areas, using
purified or filtered water is recommended to reduce
the amount of scale build up in the kettle. (Note:
You may also fill through the spout, but be careful
not to overfill – use water level gauge to check)
2. Close the lid until it clips. Place the kettle on the
base and plug into the mains.
3. To switch on the kettle, press the On/Off switch
forward (position 1) (CAUTION: Do not place
downward pressure on the switch). When the water
has boiled the kettle will automatically switch off.
You can stop the kettle at any time by pressing the
On/Off switch backwards (position 0).
4. Pour slowly and carefully. If you wish to re-boil,
please allow a minute for the kettle to cool down.
Warning:
If the kettle has just boiled it will be full of steam that will
escape if the lid is opened.
IMPORTANT: Do not open the lid when steam is coming
out of the spout.
Before pouring or filling always remember to disconnect
from electricity.
Note:
If the kettle is switched on when empty or with insufficient
water, then the kettle will switch off automatically to
protect against dry boiling. Wait ±15minutes until the
heating element cools down, refill with tap water and use
as normal. This protection function is not designed for
regular use, as it will shorten the life of the element.
If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected.
The kettle is only to be used with the stand provided
(cordless models only).
The appliance must not be immersed in liquid during
cleaning.
If the supply cord is damaged, the manufacturer or its
service agent or a similarly qualified person must replace
it in order to avoid a hazard.
Cleaning and Maintenance
DESCALING
Always ensure that the kettle is disconnected from the
mains before descaling. Scaling or furring is a
common problem in hard water areas.
1) Fill the kettle to MAX position and boil the water.
Remove the kettle from the power socket and the
base unit and place it in an empty sink or bowl.
2) Add 50 grams of Citric Acid (Available from
Chemists) or other descaler products (available at
supermarkets) to the water or as directed.
3) Leave it to stand for approximately 5 minutes or
until the effervescence subsides, and then empty
the water. Rinse thoroughly, and wipe the outside of
the kettle with a soft damp cloth.
4) Ensure the kettle and electrical connections are
completely dry before using the kettle.
Ensure that you descale your filter at regular intervals to
avoid impairing the pouring performance of your
kettle.
