Instructions For Use

Before using for the first time, we recommend operating the kettle 2 or 3 times. This will remove any dust or residue remaining from its manufacture. Fill to the MAX mark level (1.5L), bring to the boil and when boiling has finished and the kettle has switched off, discard the water and rinse out the inside.
Open the lid by pressing the lid release button located on top of the handle.
Fill the kettle with the required amount of cold water. The water gauge is on the side of the kettle and is marked with MIN (0.5L) and MAX (1.5L).
N.B. Take care not to exceed the MAX mark as this may cause spitting or leaking from the spout when boiling.
Push the lid to close it; you will feel and hear a slight click.
Align the kettle over the power base with the spout facing away from you and gently lower it into position, sitting it firmly on the power base.
Switch the kettle on by pressing down the power switch at the rear of the kettle.
The kettle will switch off automatically when it has finished boiling. However, the kettle can be switched off at any time by simply lifting the power switch.
Pour water out slowly and return the kettle to the power base after pouring. If you wish to re-boil the water, you must press the power switch again.
N.B. A couple of water droplets or condensation may appear on the power base, this is quite normal and not a leak.
N.B. Do not open the lid of the kettle or during the heating process when pouring; escaping steam may scald.
Once the kettle is re-located on the power base, it can be switched on again at any time. If the switch will not stay down, it means the control is still a little warm; this is normal and it will simply re-set itself in a few seconds when cooled and will be ready to boil again.
N.B. If the kettle is accidentally switched on without a sufficient water level, a boil dry mechanism will automatically switch the kettle off.

Hint & Tips

Always use fresh, cold water each time you boil.
If the kettle is accidentally switched on without a sufficient water level, a boil dry mechanism will automatically switch the kettle off.
For best results, empty the kettle after each use. Do not leave water standing in the kettle. This is to help prevent build up of hard water limescale.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Always unplug the appliance from the mains outlet before cleaning.
Allow to cool before cleaning the appliance.
Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a clean damp cloth to preserve its original finish. Dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring agents of any kind on the interior or exterior of the kettle.

WARNING! Do not immerse the kettle or the power base in water or any other liquid. Ensure the electric kettle socket is kept dry.

DESCALING

To limit scale build-up, we recommend you use only filtered or low-calcium water.
During use, lime deposits will form on the inside of your Cuisinart Jug Kettle. To get the best performance from the kettle, we recommend descaling it from time to time. Frequency depends on the hardness of your tap water and how often you use your kettle.
We suggest use of a kettle descaler in order to dissolve the scale. Simply follow the manufacturer’s guidelines on the packaging. Alternatively pour in enough white vinegar to cover the bottom of the kettle by about 2cm. Bring the vinegar to the boil; you may need to repeat this several times with cooled vinegar to remove the build-up completely.
When the kettle is descaled, empty the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water. Take care not to inhale fumes.
