How to use your electric kettle
Please note
- If you’re using the kettle for the time, we recommend cleaning before use by boiling and discarding a full kettle of water twice. Then simply wipe the surface down with a damp cloth.

Two step lid:
- Push the button on the top of the handle and the lid will pop up. To make the kettle easier to fill, you can also lift the lid further open to a vertical position.
- Fill the kettle with water to your desired level
- Do not exceed the MAX marker on the water gauge.
- The inside of your kettle is equipped with a’1 CUP’ and′2 CUP’ indicator. If you only wish to boil enough water for one or two cups, please fill your kettle with water to just above the appropriate level. Filling the kettle below the one cup mark can overheat the element and cause damage.

- The kettle will automatically switch off once the water has boiled, so you don’t need to worry.
How to de-scale your electric kettle
Your kettle should be de-scaled regularly, depending on how often you use it
and how hard your water is. Excessive scale can cause the kettle to switch off
before boiling and may damage the elements, affecting your warranty.

your kettle and follow the instructions on the pack. Ensure the electrical
connections are completely dry before using the kettle.
