BEFORE FIRST USE
• Read all instructions carefully and keep them for future reference.
• Remove all packaging.
• Water boiled for the first time should be discarded.
INSTRUCTION FOR USE
• The filter has been installed on the kettle before shipping. If it has been removed,
install the filter before using the kettle. Hold the filter securely and place the slot in the
filter over the tab in the cover. Push gently and the filter will snap into position.
- Do not use the kettle without the filter in position as water may spill out when boiling.
- Do not remove the filter when the kettle is hot.
• Fill kettle between the minimum and maximum levels shown on the water level window.
• Note: Do not attempt to fill while the kettle is on the power base.
Do not use for other than boiling water. Other liquids will contaminate the interior of the
kettle.
Do not fill past the MAX level indicated on the water level window. Overfilling may cause
water to spill out when boiling.
• Place kettle on the base making sure it is correctly engaged on its base.
• Depress the On/Off Switch to the ‘I’ position. The indicator light will illuminate to
indicate that the kettle is in the boil cycle. Once the water has boiled, the On/Off Switch
will automatically switch to the ‘0’ position and the indicator light will go out.
• If you want to use the kettle again, allow the thermal safety switch to cool down for 15
– 20 seconds then depress the On/Off Switch to the ‘I’ position. If the On/Off Switch does
not remain in the ‘I’ position, the water is hot enough to use without reheating.
• Unplug cord from wall outlet before lifting kettle from power base. Grip the kettle by
the Handle only, as the surface and lid will be hot.
• Return the kettle to the power base or place on a heat resistant surface after use.
• If the kettle is accidently switched on when empty, the thermostat will automatically
shut it off to prevent the kettle from overheating. If this situation occurs, unplug the
power base and let the kettle cool before refilling.
• It is recommended that the power cord be disconnected from the wall outlet when not
in use. Do not attempt to connect any other appliance to the power base or tamper with
the connector in any way.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Unplug power cord from wall outlet. Empty out remaining water and allow kettle to
cool before cleaning.
• If necessary, remove and clean the filter by rinsing under running water. The filter can
be removed by grasping firmly between your thumb and forefinger and gently pull off
starting at either the right or left edge.
• Under normal use, a deposit of scale may form on the inside of the kettle and cause
some discolouration. Scale, which has accumulated inside the kettle, can be removed
