Important safeguards

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3. To protect against fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, do not immerse cord, plug, or power base unit in water or other liquids.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow cooling before putting on or ta-
   king off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions,
   or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

7. Do not use outdoors.

8. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

9. Always fill the kettle first, then set the appliance onto the power base, and finally plug the cord into the outlet. To disconnect, remove the kettle from Power Base, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.

10. Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.

11. Always make sure that the lid is closed during operation. Scalding may occur when the lid is open during operation.

12. Extreme caution must be used when moving the kettle containing hot water.

13. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

14. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

15. For household use only.

CAUTION!

• Never boil water while the lid is open. The kettle will not shut off and boiling water may splash out of the kettle. This can cause severe injuries.
• Never try to remove the lid.
• When opening the lid, handle it gently and do not try to push it beyond its normal resistance. If you break the lid, the kettle will not work properly.
• Never fill the kettle with anything but water.
• Do not add instant soups or any other soluble to the kettle.
• Do not use the kettle to thaw food of any kind.
• Do not use the kettle to make sauces or to melt cheese, butter, or any other items.
• Never immerse the kettle in any liquid. Never put kettle or base in the dishwasher.

Before first use

Discard the first filling of boiling water to remove dust/residues from the manufacturing process.

To boil water:

1. Remove kettle from base.

2. Open the lid until it stands vertically. DO NOT BEND THE LID FURTHER BACK!

3. Fill with the desired amount of fresh cold water. The kettle has minimum and maximum markings. Never underfill or overfill the kettle.
   CAUTION: Never fill above the MAX line. If you fill above the max line, boiling water will push out of the pouring spout. This can cause severe injuries and burns.

4.  Close lid.

5. Place kettle on Power Base.

6. Plug cord into a wall outlet.

7. Gently push the On switch upwards. The blue Indicator Light will turn on and the kettle begins to heat the water.

8. When the water comes to a boil the kettle will turn off automatically, the on-switch will jump down and the light will shut off.

9. Lift kettle from the base and pour water out slowly.

10. Replace kettle.

11. If you want to bring the remaining water to a boil again, repeat step 7.

Helpful hints:

• Never try to boil water with the lid open.

• Do not leave water standing in the kettle. Discard unused water.

• If the kettle is “ON” without water, the kettle will automatically turn off (the blue indicator light
  will turn off, but the switch will NOT jump back). Slide the switch down to the complete OFF position.

• If you remove the kettle during heating ­ before Auto Shut-Off ­ the blue indicator light will turn off but the switch will stay in the ON position. If you place the kettle back on the power base, the light will turn on again, indicating that heating continues. You can always slide the switch down to the complete OFF position.

Cleaning

• Always unplug the cord of the power base before cleaning. Make sure the kettle is cold.
• Clean the exterior surface with a clean, damp, soft cloth. (Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring agents.)
• Rinse out the kettle and wipe dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Attention:

• Over time the stainless steel cover of the heating element inside the bottom of the kettle may change color slightly. This is caused by the intense heat of the heating element. If your water has a high iron content brownish stains may appear on the stainless steel element (this is also known as “boiler scale”). These stains can be wiped away with a cloth and a mild abrasive. Rinse the kettle thoroughly with fresh water.
• Hard water can leave calcium spots inside the kettle. Use a commercial descaling agent and follow the instructions that come with the agent.
  NOTE: Make sure the kettle is cold.
