BEFORE USING THE KETTLE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Carefully remove your kettle from the box. You may wish to retain the packaging for warrenty claiming
purposes. Before first use, fill the kettle with cold water to the MAX water level mark, bring to boil and discard
the boiling water – do this twice. This will ensure that any residues left over from the manufacturing process
are completely removed.
POSITIONING THE KETTLE
● Position the power base on a dry flat surface away from any potential heat source.
● Unwind the length of the mains cable required to reach the mains socket.
● Ensure the mains cable does not hang over the work surface edge.
FILLING THE KETTLE
● Remove the kettle from the power base.
● Open the lid.
● Fill the kettle between the MIN and MAX markings on the water level indicator with cold water.
● Close the lid and place the kettle back on the power base. Make sure the lid is securely closed before
boiling.
● Always remove the kettle from the power base before filling. Do not fill the kettle above the MAX mark
or below the MIN mark on the water gauge.
SWITCHING ON
5
● Position the kettle on the power base.
● Plug the kettle into a mains supply socket.
● To start boiling the kettle, press the on/off switch.
● The power indicator light will illuminate, and the kettle will start to boil.
● Never open the lid or touch the stainless-steel surface during boiling.
Please beware of escaping steam from the lid of the kettle when in use.
SWITCHING OFF
● When the water has boiled, the kettle will switch off automatically. You can stop the boiling process at
any time by lifting the on/off switch to the off position.
BOIL-DRY PROTECTION
● Should you accidentally switch on an empty kettle - the boil-dry protection will automatically switch off
the power. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool down before filling with cold water.
GENERAL
● Always remove the kettle from the base before pouring.
● To avoid the risk of splashing, pour slowly and do not over-tilt the kettle.
● Do not tilt the kettle backwards - water might get on to the control area. If this happens, let the kettle dry
thoroughly before use – place it somewhere warm for 12 hours.
● When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the base. Do not worry – it’s the steam used to switch
the kettle off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents under the kettle.
● You may see some discolouration on the floor of the kettle. Again, do not worry – it is due to the
bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
● This appliance is for household use only and is not user serviceable.
● Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical service department or
return to the supplier if servicing is necessary.
● Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
● Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid or hold it under a running tap to clean.
● To remove stubborn spots/marks, wipe the surfaces with a cloth slightly dampened in soapy water or
mild non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse and dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth.
● Unplug the base from the wall socket, and let the kettle cool down before cleaning.
● Wipe the kettle, inside and out, with a damp cloth. You may use a little household detergent, but if you
do, rinse well to avoid tainting the water.
6
● Wipe the base with a damp cloth.
● Keep all connectors and sockets dry.
● Do not immerse the kettle or kettle stand in liquid.
● Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
● The filter can also occasionally be removed to gentllly wipe with a wet cloth and rinse under running
water. The filter is fragile and needs to be handled with care.
We recommend that you descale your kettle regularly, even in soft water areas. Lime scale may be white,
coloured, or even rusty looking, but it is normally visible. Phosphate scale is not generally visible, but there is
always a build-up, even in soft water areas. Any build-up of scale causes overheating, which reduces the life of
the element, and may trigger the boil-dry cut-out to engage. Descale at least monthly, to help keep your kettle
in working order.
To descale your kettle:
● Use a descaler suitable for plastic products (all kettles have plastic parts). Follow the instructions on the
descaler, then rinse several times, fill, boil and discard the water to remove all chemical residues.
● Products returned under guarantee with faults related to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
● If you notice your kettle getting noisier – descale it.
● Do not rely on visible scale, as phosphate scale is not visible. Rather descale the kettle for preventative
purposes.
Removing mineral deposits
● Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which may form on the interior metal parts of the
kettle.
● To get the best performance from your kettle, descale your kettle from time to time. Frequency depends
on the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the kettle.
● We suggest use of a kettle descaler in order to dissolve chalky deposits or scale.
● Follow the directions on the descaler package. If a commercial descaler is not available, fill the kettle
with enough white vinegar to cover the bottom by about 1.5cm. Bring the vinegar to a boil. You may
need to repeat this several times with cooled vinegar to remove the calcium build-up completely. When
the descaling process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water.
STORING THE APPLIANCE
● Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and clean all the parts as instructed above. Ensure that all
parts are dry before storing.
7
● Store the appliance in its box or in a clean, dry place.
● Never store the appliance while it is still wet or dirty.
● Never wrap the power cord around the appliance.
