- Refit the lid.
+ You must make sure that the filter in the lid is aligned with the spout when fitting the lid. If you don’t do this, water will build up behind the lid because it cannot be poured out normally and this may cause the lid to come off unexpectedly.

- Putthe kettle on the stand.
- Move the switch to I.
- The light will come on and the kettle will start to heat.
- When the water boils the kettle will switch off.
- Toswitch off manually, move the switch to O, or simply lift the kettle off the stand.
GENERAL
Note: When you lift your kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. This is normal and is caused by the steam used to switch your kettle off automatically.
BOIL DRY PROTECTION
If your kettle boils dry, a safety cut-out device will automatically switch it off. If this happens, unplug your kettle and allow it to cool down until the cut-out resets itself. Allowing your kettle to boil dry will shorten the life of the element.
