Using your Variable Temperature
Kettle
4
Before using your kettle.
It is recommended that you clean your kettle
before using it by filling the kettle with water
to the maximum level indicator, boiling the
water and discarding.
Using your Variable Temperature Kettle
Important: Do not fill the kettle over the
maximum level, as water may spill out of the
spout when boiling.
1. To fill the kettle, remove it from the
power base and lift the lid by pulling the
lid release on top of the kettle upwards.
Alternatively, the kettle may be filled
through the pouring spout. Do not fill the
kettle below the 'min' indication.
2. Fill the kettle with the desired amount of
water. Always fill the kettle between the
minimum and maximum marks. Too little
water will result in the kettle switching off
before the water has boiled.
3. Push the lid closed firmly until it locks into
position.
4. Place the kettle onto the power base. Plug
the power cord into a 230-240 Volt AC
power outlet and switch the power on.
5. Press the ‘SET TEMP’ button to toggle
between four pre-set temperatures:
80°C, 85°C, 90°C and 100°C (boil).
Your selected water temperature will be
indicated by an orange LED illuminating
directly below the printed temperatures
above the ‘SET TEMP’ button.
See Figure 1.
Tip: The Variable Temperature Kettle has four
optimum tea temperatures you can select
from: 80°C, 85°C, 90°C and 100°C (boil).
These are the recommended temperatures
for brewing green, white, oolong, herbal and
black teas. Refer to the ‘Tea Brewing Styles
and Tips’ table on page 6 for the ideal tea
temperature for your tea.
6. To maintain the temperature of the
selected water temperature once the
heating cycle has finished, simply press
the ‘KEEP WARM’ button. This will maintain
the temperature selected for up to 20
minutes. The ‘KEEP WARM’ button will
remain illuminated to indicate that it has
been selected.
Note: The ‘KEEP WARM’ button can be
pressed when selecting your desired water
temperature or after the power
button
has been pressed (during the boiling cycle).
The ‘KEEP WARM’ button will illuminate to
indicate that it has been selected.
Note: If the ‘KEEP WARM’ button is selected
when the 100°C (boil) temperature has been
selected, the kettle will boil to 100°C, drop
to 90°C and maintain at 90°C for up to 20
minutes.
