BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Fill to max, boil, discard the water, then rinse. Do this twice to remove any manufacturing dust, etc.

FILLING

Open the lid.
Fill with at least 1 cup of water, but not above max.
If you want only 1, 2, or 3 cups of water, fill to the 1, 2, or 3 marks inside the kettle.
Close the lid.

USING YOUR KETTLE

Put the stand on a stable, level surface.
Plug the stand into the wall socket.
Put the kettle on the stand.
Move the switch to I.
The light will come on and the kettle will start to heat.
When the water boils the kettle will switch off.
To switch off manually, move the switch to O , or simply lift the kettle off the stand.

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.
Descale regularly, (at least monthly).

Descale regularly, (at least monthly).
Descale the appliance with a proprietary descaler. Follow the instructions on the package of descaler. Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
