IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

WARNING: This appliance utilizes a high-wattage relay for arriving at the desired water temperature. In some instances, this relay may cause slight bickering of lights on the same circuit. It is best to use this appliance on a dedicated circuit or with all other appliances off during this appliance’s use. It will not damage electrical systems but caution should be used to not overload this circuit with other appliances running at the same time.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• Read all instructions.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against, electric shock and injury to persons, do not immerse cord, plugs, base, or kettle in water or other liquid.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from the outlet when not in use, when empty, and before cleaning. Allow cooling before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance has malfunctioned, or has been damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free Customer Assistance Number for examination, repair, or replacement.
• Do not use a base unit other than the one supplied. The use of accessory attachments is not recommended by the appliance manufacturer and may result in, electrical shock or personal injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table, or countertop, or touch hot surfaces. Always store the excess portion of the power cord in the underside compartment of the base unit.
• The digital kettle must be operated on at the surface. Do not place on or near a hot electric or gas burner, in a heated oven, or on top of other electric appliances.
• Plug the cord into the wall outlet and then turn it on. To disconnect, turn the base off, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
• Do not use appliances for other than intended use.
• To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit.
• Always remove the kettle from the base before filling. Remove all moisture on the bottom of the kettle before placing it onto the power base.
• Be aware of steam being emitted from the spout or lid, especially during refilling. Do not remove the lid during the heating cycle. Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during heating cycles.
• Do not use the kettle to heat anything other than water. Do not fill above the ‘max’ indicator inside the kettle. If the kettle is overfilled, hot water may be ejected.
• Do not insert any object into slots or holes of the kettle.

ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE POWER CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF THE APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
EXTENSION CORDS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer, detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:

• The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance
• The extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord
• The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by children).

CAUTION: This appliance must be grounded when in use. To ensure protec- tion against the risk of electric shock, connect to properly ground outlets only.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance has a plug that looks like Figure A. An adaptor, as shown in Figure B, should be used for connecting a 3-prong grounding plug to a 2-wire receptacle. The grounding tab, which extends from the adaptor, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure C, using a metal screw.

ADJUSTING KETTLE LID TENSION
If you feel the kettle lid is too hard or too easy to remove from the kettle, please follow the steps below to adjust the tension:

1. Take the lid off the kettle.

2. Use a tool to adjust the three tabs of the kettle lid. If you push in the tab, the lid tension will be lessened and easier to push on and off. If you pull out the tabs the lid will be harder to pull off.

3. Adjust the tabs, replace the lid and remove it to see if the adjustment is correct.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have adjusted the lid to your preference.

• Clean the kettle regularly. This appliance contains no user-serviceable parts and requires little maintenance. Please leave any servicing or repairs to qualify- fied personal
• Clean the outside of the base and the kettle with a damp, soft cloth.
• Clean the inside of the kettle with dishwasher detergent and rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• After cleaning, dry the kettle and the base thoroughly.

When mineral scale builds up in your kettle, it can affect temperature consistency and slow down heating time.
To ensure optimum performance, Bonavita recommends descaling the kettle when the mineral build-up is visible inside the kettle.
Note: Vinegar may not effectively descale the kettle and can be difficult to thoroughly rinse. Vinegar may also leave behind an odor that could affect future uses. Bonavita recommends using Bonavita Descaler.
HOW TO USE Bonavita DESCALER:

1. Mix 1 bottle or 1 packet of Bonavita Descaler with 32 oz of lukewarm water.
2. Pour into the kettle.
3. Bring the solution to a boil.
4. Let the vessel cool for 15 minutes, then discard the solution.
5. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water.

STORAGE
Clean and dry all parts before storing. Store the kettle in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never wrap the power cord around the kettle. Always use cord storage on the bottom of the base.

Pour Over Manual Brew Coffee

Pour-over or manual brew coffee preparation is a great way to control your coffee quality. It does require more time than just sipping a switch, but for many, the higher level of engagement is part of the pleasure of consuming coffee.
Equipment needed:

Brewing manual pour-over method:

• Measure 6 ounces of water for each cup you intend to brew. Place measured water in a kettle and turn on the kettle to heat the water to your desired set temperature.
• Grind two tablespoons of coffee beans per cup.
• Rinse the lter cone, lter, and coffee pot (or whatever you are brewing into) with hot water to preheat them.
• Assemble the lter cone, lter, and vessel.
• Once the water reaches the set point pour it into the lter. We recommend starting in the center and pouring in a circular pattern, moving gradually towards the edge of the coffee bed. A slow steady pour allows for even extraction.

Tips:

• We recommend preheating the lter and cone. Pour a couple of ounces ~60ml of hot water into the lter and discard prior to adding coffee.
• If you have access to a scale you can measure the amount of water while pouring.
• Pre-wetting the coffee grounds a minute before starting to pour over helps extraction.
• Pour-over coffee is ground ner than drip, but not as ne as espresso.
