1 Remove the cups and spoons
from the kettle.
2 Select the required voltage by
turning the selector control 
.
Always check that you have
selected the correct voltage
before using the kettle.
3 Fill it through the spout or lid. The
water level must be between
“MAX” and “MIN” (1 cup/approx.
200mls).
4 Check the lid is closed. 
5 Plug in and switch on. The neon
will come on.
6 Your kettle will boil and switch off
automatically. To re-boil, wait a
few seconds - the on/off switch
needs time to reset.
If you experience problems
with your kettle switching
on and off during use or
switching off before boiling,
check that the flat element
is free from scale - see
“descaling”.
7 Always unplug the kettle after use.
Take care when using the cups
and do not overfill above the inner
rim (approx. 200mls).
Your kettle is fitted with a scale
filter to hold back limescale
particles.
If you find drops of water under
your kettle, don’t worry - it is just
condensation.
boil-dry protection
If you switch on with too little
water, your kettle will cut out
automatically. Switch off and let it
cool down before re-filling. When it
has cooled down, the switch will
reset itself.
