• The mains lead should reach from the
socket to the base unit without
straining the connections.
• Do not let the mains lead hang over
the edge of the worktop where a child
could reach it.
• Do not let the lead run across an open
space e.g. between a low socket and
table.
• Do not let the lead run across a cooker
or toaster or other hot area which
might damage the cable.
• Do not place the kettle where the
mains lead could fall into a sink.

• Always pour hot water slowly and
carefully without tipping the kettle too
fast to prevent splashing and spillage.
• Extreme caution must be used when
moving a kettle containing hot water.
• Do not touch hot surfaces, use handles
or knobs.
• Always close the lid securely, other
wise the kettle may not switch off
automatically and may spit out boiling
water.
• Avoid contact with steam from the
spout when the water is boiling or just
after it has switched off.
• Take care if opening the lid for re-filling
when the kettle is hot
• Do not fill above the MAX mark,
otherwise boiling water may be
ejected.
• Do not hold the switch in the on
position or tamper with the switch to fix
it in the on position as this may cause
steam to be ejected and could damage
the switch-off mechanism.
• Unplug from the electrical outlet when
cleaning.
• Allow to cool before putting on or
taking off parts and before cleaning.
