Meet Your Kettle

Before We Begin

1. Remove all packaging and static stickers.
2. Clean and wash all parts by rinsing the interior of Kettle, wiping the body with a damp cloth, and drying with a soft dry cloth. Do not immerse Kettle or base in water.
3. Fill your kettle with filtered water to the “MAX” level, complete the boiling cycle, then discard the water.

Using Your Kettle

1. Fill kettle with water
   Press the button at top of the handle of the open lid, then fill Kettle with cold water to the desired level (between the “MIN” and “MAX” markings). Check to make sure the removable stainless steel filter is properly snapped into the frame.

Making the Most Out of Your Kettle

Notes on Filling Your Kettle
Under-filling may result in Kettle switching off before reaching a boil and/or overheating from boiling dry. Boiling dry can cause rust to form, or damage the inside of the kettle. Over-filling may result in boiling water splashing out of the pour spout and could cause scalding or serious injury. Water can also leak from the top and collect in the base of the Kettle. When the base gets wet, The kettle will stop working prematurely.
WARNING: Do not fill the Kettle beyond the “MAX” line. This may result in hot water splashing out of the spout.
Safety
The Kettle uses 1500W to heat water. To avoid tripping a breaker, plug the Kettle into its own wall outlet, to ensure sufficient capacity.
Note: This appliance is designed for boiling or heating drinking quality water only. Never use it to heat or boil any other liquids or food. Never put tea or coffee inside the kettle.
Your Kettle will operate only when it is positioned on the power base with the ON/OFF switch in the ON position. Your Kettle will automatically switch off once the water has boiled.
The Kettle is fitted with a safety device that protects against overheating should the appliance be operated with insufficient water. If this occurs, the Kettle will stop heating.
Allow Kettle to cool for approximately 20 minutes before refilling. The safety device will automatically reset when the Kettle has sufficiently cooled.
When ready, lift Kettle from the base and pour slowly to prevent water from coming out of the lid. The handle and bottom of the Kettle is designed to stay cool after boiling to protect your hands and the insulated bottom allows you to place the Kettle on any surface when you’re done pouring.

WARNING: Do not open the lid during and after the operation. The lid should always be closed securely during use. This may result in hot or boiling water splashing from the Kettle. Pour all hot water from the Kettle before opening the lid to refill.
CAUTION: The Kettle appliance is very hot during use. Do not touch the Kettle surface. Beware of burns! Use the handle for lifting, carrying, and pouring. If you need extra support, use an oven mitt.

Descaling

The ideal descaling cycle depends on water hardness. Descale the Kettle every 60 uses.
Regular descaling can also increase the service life of the kettle, allowing it to boil water faster with less energy.
The warranty is voided if descaling is not carried out in accordance with these instructions.

1. Fill the Kettle with 7oz/200mL of solution and 53oz/1.6L of water.
