INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. This appliance is of the grounded type (three pronged). If using an extension cord, it should also be a grounded 3 wire cord.

INTRODUCTION
Your new Cuisinart ® Cordless Electric Jug Kettle features the latest technology to make boiling water quicker and easier than ever. The elegant brushed stainless steel finish makes it the perfect addition to any table.
This kettle is exceptionally simple to operate, but as with every new product, we suggest you read the following information carefully to familiarize yourself with the Kettle’s use and care.
ULTIMATE
CONVENIENCE
The Cuisinart ® Cordless Electric Jug Kettle will quickly become part of your daily routine. One touch of the on/off switch begins the heating process. In just minutes, this contemporary cordless kettle brings up to 1-3/4 quarts (1.7 L) of water to the boiling point and then turns itself off. You’ll wonder how you lived without it!
Making Tea with your Cord l e s s
Automatic Electric Jug Kettle
The most traditional use for a kettle is making tea.
Your Cuisinart ® kettle will be a fast and convenient way to make your cup of tea.
Whether using tea bags or loose tea, buy the best you can. The flavour will only be as good as the quality of the tea. Tea tastes best when steeped in a ceramic pot or cup.
For best results, use your Cordless Electric Jug
Kettle following the operating instructions on p.4, as well as the following tips:
1. Fill kettle with fresh, cold water.
2. Place an infuser with loose tea or tea bag(s) in your ceramic pot or cup.
3. Wait for kettle to click off, and immediately pour the boiling water onto the tea.
4. The tea should be allowed to steep for 3 to 5 minutes. The longer it steeps, the stronger it is.
For iced tea, brew tea double-strength
(steep twice as long) and pour over ice.
5. Stir and serve as desired.

OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING FOR THE
FIRST TIME
Before using your Cuisinart ® Cordless Electric Jug
Kettle for the first time, we recommend operating the kettle 2 or 3 times, following the instructions below. This will remove any dust or residue remaining from the manufacturing process.
BOILING WATER
1. Open the Lid.
Push the release button on the handle and the lid opens. (See Fig. 1.)
2. Fill the Kettle.
Fill the kettle with as much fresh, cold water as you will need. The maximum water level is indicated near the handle and is marked by the word “MAX”.
(See Fig. 2.)
3. Close the Lid.
Position kettle with spout facing away from you.
Press gently toward you to close.
4. Place Kettle on Power Base.
Place the kettle on the power base so the element on the bottom of the kettle sits securely on the power base.
5. Power “ON”.
Activate the power “ON” switch by gently lifting up until a “click” is heard (See Fig. 3.) When the water has boiled, the kettle will automatically switch “OFF”.
NOTE: The kettle can be switched off at any time before the water boils, simply by lifting the kettle off the base.
6. Pour and Serve.
Pour water out slowly. Return kettle to base after pouring. If you wish to reboil the water, you must lift the power “ON” button again.
HELPFUL HINTS
Always use fresh, cold water for each boiling.
If the kettle is accidentally switched “ON” without a sufficient water level, a boil-dry mechanism will automatically switch the kettle “OFF”.
Empty kettle after each use. Do not leave water standing in the kettle.
NOTE: For your safety, it is recommended that the lid be closed on the kettle whenever kettle is in use.

CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Always disconnect the kettle from electrical outlet before cleaning.
Before cleaning, be sure the kettle is cold.
Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a clean, damp cloth to preserve its original brushed finish.
Dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring agents of any kind on the interior or exterior of the kettle.
Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or other liquid, and be sure that the electric kettle socket is kept dry.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which may form in the interior metal parts of the kettle.
To get the best performance from your Cuisinart ®
Kettle, decalcify your unit 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 these 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 1/2".
Bring the vinegar to a boil. You may need to repeat this several times with cooled vinegar to remove the calcium buildup completely. When the descaling process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water.
