ADDITIONAL WARNINGS FOR KETTLES:
1. 
The kettle and base must not be operated with any 
other models of kettle.
2. 
The kettle is fitted with a dry-operation cutout 
that switches off the kettle if it has boiled dry. If 
this happens allow the kettle to cool down for 
approximately 15 minutes, then fill the kettle with 
cold water. This will reset the cutout so that the 
kettle can be used again.
3. 
Do not overfill. Check the inside water level gauge 
when filling. 
4. 
Never remove the cord from the kettle while in 
operation. Switch off the appliance first. 
5. 
Ensure the lid is closed properly before switching 
on, to prevent water splashing out when boiling. Do 
not open the lid when boiling.
6. 
After the kettle has boiled it may need a few minutes 
to cool down before restarting.
7. 
Take care when pouring.  Pour slowly and do not 
over-tilt.
8. 
Make sure the kettle is always used on a flat 
surface.
9. 
Water will remain hot for considerable time after 
boiling and will present a scalding hazard. Take 
care and keep away from children.
10.  The outside surface of the kettle will become hot 
during use.  To avoid injuries only hold the handle.
11.  Take care to avoid contact with the steam coming 
from the lid or spout.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
It is important that you read these instructions before 
using your kettle for the first time.
1. 
Open the lid of the kettle, fill with tap water to the 
desired level. (min. capacity is 0.5L and max. 
capacity is 1.7L).  In hard water areas, using 
purified or filtered water is recommended to reduce 
the amount of scale build up in the kettle.
2. 
Close the lid by pressing it down until it clicks into 
place.  Place the kettle on the base and plug into 
the mains. 
3. 
To switch on the kettle, press the On/Off switch 
down (position 1).  The power indicator light will 
now be on.  When the water has boiled the kettle 
will automatically switch off.  You can stop the kettle 
at any time by pressing the On/Off switch down 
(position 0).  
4. 
Pour slowly and carefully.  If you wish to re-boil, 
please allow a few moments for the kettle to cool 
down and reset. WARNING!
If the kettle has just boiled it will be full of steam that 
will escape if the lid is opened resulting in a burn 
hazard.
  
CAUTION! 
Kettle parts are hot and can cause injury. Hold the 
handle only. 
IMPORTANT!
Do not open the lid when steam is coming out of the 
spout. When pouring or filling always remember to 
disconnect from electricity.
Note: 
• 
If the kettle is switched on when empty or with 
insufficient water, then the kettle will switch off 
automatically to protect against dry boiling.  Wait 
until the heating element cools down, refill with tap 
water and use as normal.  This protection function 
is not designed for regular use, as it will shorten the 
life of the kettle.
• 
If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be 
ejected.
• 
The kettle is only to be used with the stand 
provided.
• 
The appliance must not be immersed during 
cleaning.
• 
If the supply cord is damaged, the manufacturer or 
its service agent or a similarly qualified person must 
replace it in order to avoid a hazard. 
Descaling
Always ensure that the kettle is disconnected from the 
mains before descaling. Scaling or furring is a common 
problem in hard water areas.  It is recommended that 
a propriety descaler is used whenever scale deposits 
build up. The instructions supplied with the descaler 
must always be followed. Scale build up may result in the 
kettle switching off before boiling. Using a water purifier 
will help to reduce scale build-up.
Ensure that you descale your filter at regular intervals to 
avoid impairing the pouring performance of your kettle.
Cleaning and Maintenance
A clean appliance will last longer. Please observe the
following instructions to get the best use of your kettle.
• 
Always disconnect the plug from the mains before 
cleaning the kettle and base.  Wipe the plastic 
parts and base with a moist cloth.  Never use an 
aggressive scourer, steel wool of strong chemical 
cleaners.
• 
Descale the kettle regularly. This will depend on the 
hardness of the water and the frequency of use. 
Scale build up will significantly reduce the heating 
efficiency of the kettle.
• 
Use of a proprietary descaler for kettles is 
recommended.  Follow the instructions provided 
carefully.
• 
For stainless steel kettles you should use a soft 
absorbent cloth to remove the condensation from 
the body to prevent minerals in the steam/water 
from oxidizing and giving the appearance of rust 
marks on the kettle. A metal polish should be 
used to protect and maintain your kettle in a good 
condition.
Disposal and the Environment
If your electrical appliance requires replacement or 
is of no further use, please think of protecting the 
environment. Contact you local authority for advice as 
many have facilities for environmentally safe disposal.
