BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

FILLING
- Remove the lid.

- If you want only 1, 2, or 3 cups of water, fill to the 1, 2, or 3 marks inside the kettle.
- Refit the lid. Always fit the lid when boiling the kettle.
USING YOUR KETTLE

- Plug the stand into the wall socket.

- To switch off manually, move the switch to O, or simply lift the kettle off the stand.
WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The water temperature gauge constantly shows you the temperature of the
water inside the kettle. Use the gauge when you are making drinks that require
different water temperatures like green teas, white teas, coffee, etc. The
gauge will not work if there is insufficient water in the kettle (minimum 1
cup).
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.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
- Unplug the stand, and let the kettle cool before cleaning.
- Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.
- Remove the lid.
- Push the hook on top of the filter down then lift the filter out of the kettle (fig A).
- Rinse the filter under a running tap while brushing with a soft brush.
- Lower the filter into the kettle, and engage the bottom hook in the bottom of the spout.
- Press the top of the filter towards the kettle, to lock the hook in place.
- Refit the lid.
Descale regularly, (at least monthly).
Use a proprietary descaler. Follow the instructions accompanying the descaler.
Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to
a repair charge.
