Before using your kettle.
It is recommended that you clean your kettle
before first use by filling the kettle with
water, up to the maximum level indicator,
boil and discard.
Using your kettle.
1. To fill the kettle, remove it from the power
base and open the lid by pushing the
button on the top of the lid. Alternatively,
the kettle may be filled through the
pouring spout.
2. Fill the kettle with the desired amount of
water (minimum 1 cup/250ml). 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.
Note: Do not fill the kettle over the maximum
level, as water may spill out of the spout
when boiling.
3. Push the lid closed firmly until it locks into
position.
4. Place the kettle on the power base and
connect the plug into a 230/240 Volt
AC power outlet. Turn the power ON.
5. Press the ON/OFF switch located on the
handle downwards. The light will illuminate
to indicate the kettle is heating.
The kettle will switch off automatically once
the water has boiled.
Important: Ensure the lid is firmly closed.
The kettle will not turn off if the lid is left
open. Do not remove the kettle from the
power base while in use.
Important: Avoid touching metal surfaces
when operating the kettle as these will be
hot.
6. Lift the kettle from the power base and
pour the water.
Note: Use caution when pouring the water
from your kettle as boiling water will scald.
7. The kettle may be stored on the power
base while not in use. The kettle will not
re-boil until the ON/OFF switch is pressed
downward.
Note: Ensure the power is turned off at the
power outlet when the kettle is not in use.
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to
operate without water, it will cut out for
boil-dry protection. If this occurs, allow the
kettle to cool before filling with cold water
and re-boiling.
Cord Storage Facility.
Excess cord can be stored by winding the
cord around the storage facility underneath
the power base.
