GuaranteeInformation...........................................

The PerfecTemp Teakettle is suitable for all hobs: gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, radiant,

induction and ranges ﬁred by gas, oil, coal or wood. Never use Cuisinart kettles on high heat.

A low to medium heat setting is recommended. To boil water in your kettle, a medium high

setting is sufﬁcient. Never leave your Cuisinart PerfecTemp Teakettle empty over a hot hob

and never allow to boil dry. Follow the max ﬁll level line on the back of the handle and do

not heat without water in the kettle. You may ruin the kettle and may even cause damage

to the oven-top.

Wash kettle in hot water then ﬁll with clean water and bring to the boil and discard water.

Wipe dry immediately with a soft tea towel. We do not recommend cleaning your Cuisinart

PerfecTemp Teakettle in the dishwasher.

BREWING BASICS

For best results, use a good quality loose leaf or bagged tea. Measure carefully –

approximately 3g of dry tea, the equivalent to measuring one rounded teaspoon, should be

used for each 170ml of water or per cup. Tea should be stored in an airtight container at

room temperature to preserve its optimal taste.

Since the majority of the contents of a cup of tea is still water, it is imperative to start with

fresh cold water, ﬁltered or bottled if possible. When ﬁlling your Cuisinart PerfecTemp

Teakettle with water, be sure not to exceed its maximum ﬁll capacity. Refer to the maximum

ﬁll line located on the base of the kettle’s handle that indicates its maximum capacity and do

not ﬁll kettle higher than this level. Ensure that there is a sufﬁcient amount of water in the

kettle when using over a heat source, so that it does not boil dry.

Once water has completed initial warm up with each use, the temperature gauge yields

quicker and therefore more precise readings. On initial (cold) start-up, overshoot desired

temperature by 10 degrees and reduce heat until dial reads desired temperature.

Subsequent heat ups from an elevated temperature state* are precise.

*An elevated temperature state is when indicator pin falls within blue shaded range of dial.

It is also important to preheat the teapot or cup in which the tea will be steeped, to optimise

extraction for the ideal tea ﬂavour. If very hot or boiling water is poured into a cold teapot

or mug, the water’s temperature will immediately drop by several degrees and inhibit the

best extraction. To preheat the pot, as the water is heating in the kettle, pour a little bit of

the hot water into both the teapot and the serving cups to warm them.

The built in precision temperature gauge on the PerfecTemp Teakettle allows for easy and

accurate reading of water temperature. The indicator pin on the multi-coloured dial will point

to the temperature reading when the water has reached the corresponding temperature.*

Once the water has reached the desired water temperature, remove kettle from hob and

pour into drinking cups, or alternate serving teapot if preferred.

*Both the water temperature and length of steeping time varies by the blend and type of tea

you are brewing. Refer to the Cuisinart PerfecTemp Teakettle Tea Guide for optimal water

temperatures and brewing times.

SERVING TIME

The sleek design and rich porcelain enamelled exterior of your PerfecTemp Teakettle is ideal

for serving direct to table. When serving, ensure you place the hot kettle on a heat resistant

mat before placing on the unit or table.

EASY MAINTENANCE

With normal use, once cooled, dry the interior and exterior of the kettle for a ﬂawless ﬁnish.

From time to time, when required, ﬁll the kettle with warm water and washing up liquid

and allow to soak. Use a sponge or soft cloth to remove any remaining residue. Do not

use scouring pads or other metal pads that may cause scratches. Rinse thoroughly and dry

immediately for a ﬂawless ﬁnish.

The handle is stainless steel with a silicone grip for added comfort and control. Handle

shape and its angle are designed to minimise heat transfer. Handle will remain cool when

kettle with lid in place is in use on the hob, however, using an oven glove to grip handle

is recommended. Kettle is not oven safe and should not be placed in the oven for any

reason.

Do not wash in dishwasher.

USING OVER A GAS HOB

When using on a gas hob, ensure the ﬂame is concentrated and touches only the kettle

bottom. If the ﬂame extends up the sides of the kettle, energy is wasted and there is a risk

that the sides of the kettle may become permanently discoloured.

CONVENIENT CARE AND STORAGE

Your Cuisinart PerfecTemp Teakettle is a perfect oven-top item and many choose to display

their kettle on the oven-top when not in use. However, if you choose to store your kettle

while not in use, it should be carefully placed on a shelf or in a dedicated cupboard space.

Stacking and crowding in cabinets with other kitchen items may cause scratches.
