     free from scale – see “descaling”.

   • Your kettle is fitted with a filter to hold back limescale particles.

   • If you find drops of water under your kettle, don’t worry – it is just condensation.
     Boil-dry protection

   • If you switch on with too little water,y our kettle will cut out automatically. Switch off, remove from the powerbase and let it cool down before re-filling. When it has cooled down, the switch will reset itself.

Using the kettle with the ECOFILL

1. Ensure the ECOFILL 1 is clipped into place correctly.
2. Pour the water into the ECOFILL compartment 3 until level with the top of the central divider 4 for a 1 cup measure. Adjust your fill rate to match your required cup measure.
   If the ECOFILL is fitted and you wish to measure more than 1 or 2 cups, pour the water directly into the bypass opening 5.

Care and cleaning

• Before cleaning, unplug your kettle and let it cool down.

The outside and powerbase
Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry. Do not use abrasives – they will scratch the metal and plastic surfaces.

the inside
Even though your kettle comes with a filter, you still need to clean the inside (and the filter) regularly

ECOFILL

• Lift the ECOFILL out using the central divider 2.
• Wash in warm soapy water, dry and refit by clipping back into position.

The filter

****

1. Open the lid.

2. Slide the filter out 9.

3. either rinse under the tap or usea  soft brush.
   or when descaling your kettle, drop the filter in too. Rinse thoroughly.

4. Slide the filter back in to refit.

descaling

Regular descaling of the flate element will improve the performance of your kettle. If the kettle is not descaled regularly the build up of limescale may result in
the following:

• problems may be experienced with the kettle switching on and off during use or switching off before boiling.
• the kettle may take longer to boil.
• the flat element may be damaged.

Please note: Failure to descale your kettle may invalidate your guarantee.

• When limescale starts to build up on the heating element, buy a suitable descaler and descale your kettle. After descaling, boil with fresh water several times and discard. Clean any descaler off the kettle – it can damage the parts.

• Some regions of the country have chalky water. This makes boiled water look cloudy and leaves a deposit on the side of the kettle.
  This is normal but can be removed with regular cleaning.

• Alternatively, to reduce limescale build up, use filtered water to fill your kettle.

Advice from the British Burn Association
Every year, 30,000 children go to hospital with burns. What might be a minor burn for an adult could horrifically injure – or even kill – a child.

Take these precautions

• Keep hot drinks out of children’s reach.

• Don’t drink while holding your baby.
  If you’re passing someone a drink, make sure a child isn’t underneath.

• Keep your kettle, and its cord, well back from the worktop edge so that children can’t grab them.

• Keep children away from the kitchen work area.

• For baby’s bath, run the cold water first, then add the hot. Mix well and test the temperature with your elbow before you put baby in.

• Teach children about hot things. run cold water over a burn immediately, then get medical help. Don’t stop to remove clothing.
