BEFORE FIRST
USE
Before using the appliance for the first time, fill with water, boil and pour away.
OPERATING THE
APPLIANCE
1 Wherever possible fill through the spout, as this helps to free the filter from limescale build-up.
• The water level indicators allow you to easily see the amount of water in the kettle.
• Always ensure that the appliance is filled till the water in the kettle is filled to at least the minimum level shown on the water gauge.
• Boil only as much water as you need as this saves electricity.
2 Place the appliance on the base unit, ensuring the appliance locates on to the
360° connector.
• Due to the oval shape of this product we recommend alining the kettle with the power base for better stability
3 Plug in and switch on at the wall socket.
4 Switch the appliance on.
The water level indicator will light up.
5 When the water boils the appliance will switch off automatically.
• If you are using the appliance for the first time, pour away the boiled water.
6 Lift the appliance from the base unit by the handle ensuring you hold the appliance level.
• To re-boil, switch to ON again. If the appliance has just switched off wait a minute or so before switching it back on again.
• If you do not put in enough water, or switch on the appliance when it is empty, the safety cut-out will switch off the power automatically. If this happens, refill and wait a few minutes for the element to cool, then use as normal.
Filter removal
1 Open the lid.
2 Lift the filter upwards from its location using the tab provided.
3 To refit the filter, slot it into the side wall guides and press down firmly. Ensure the filter is correctly located into the central guide.
WARNING: Make sure that the filter is put in correctly otherwise the lid will not close.
For stainless steel kettles please follow the instructions carefully.
Alternatively use citric acid crystals (available from most pharmacies) as follows:
1 Fill the appliance
3/4 full, boil, then unplug the appliance (remove the cordless kettle from the base unit) and stand it in an empty sink or bowl.
2 Gradually add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the water, then leave the kettle to stand. Do not use a more concentrated solution.
3 As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the appliance and rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
4 Wipe the outside of the appliance thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove all traces of acid which may damage the finish.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the electrical connections are completely dry before using the appliance.
Descaling
IMPORTANT: As this appliance is fitted with a concealed element it must be descaled regularly. The frequency of descaling depends on usage and the hardness of the water in your area.
Excessive scale can cause the appliance to switch off before boiling and may damage the element invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling takes place.
Remove hard scale using a proprietary descaling product suitable for stainless steel, glass or plastic.
HINTS AND TIPS
Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect the plug from the mains and allow the appliance to cool before cleaning.
Wipe the outside with a damp cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outside of the appliance which may scratch the surface.
