HOW TO USE
1. Open the Lid by holding the kettle handle with one hand and lifting up
the Lid with the other. Fill the kettle through the lid opening with a
minimum of 0.5 litres (2 cups) of water.
2. DO NOT attempt to fill the Kettle while it is plugged into the wall outlet.
DO NOT use for other than boiling water. Other liquids will contaminate
the interior of the kettle.
DO NOT fill past the MAX level indicated in the water level window.
Overfilling may cause water to spit out when boiling.
3. Close the Lid.
4. Place Kettle on a level, dry, heat resistant surface.
5. Plug into a 120V AC wall outlet.
NOTE:
- Never plug kettle into an electrical outlet when the kettle is empty.
- Direct kettle spout away from cabinets, walls, etc. to prevent possible
steam damage.
6. Depress the On/Off Switch (‘I’/’O’) and the red indicator light will light up
to indicate that the Kettle is in the boil cycle. Once the water has boiled,
the On/Off Switch will move to the 'Off' (‘O’) position and the light will
go out. IMPORTANT: The kettle shuts off automatically only after
the boiling cycle is complet. If the kettle is unplugged before the
boiling cycle is complete then it will begin to heat as soon as it is
plugged in again. To shut the kettle off before the boiling cycle is
complete, lift the On/Off Switch to the ‘Off’ (‘O’) position.
7. The Lid should not be opened when the Kettle is hot.
8. If you want to use the Kettle again, allow the thermal safety switch to
cool down for 15 to 20 seconds then depress the On/Off Switch to the
On (‘I’) position. If the On/Off Switch does not remain in the On
position, the water is hot enough to use without reheating.
9. Only grip the Kettle by the Handle as all other surfaces will be hot
10. Unplug cord from wall outlet before pouring water from the Kettle.
11. Return the Kettle to a heat resistant surface after use.
12. IMPORTANT: If the Kettle is accidently switched on when empty, the
thermostat will automatically cycle on and off to prevent the Kettle from
overheating. If this situation occurs, press the ‘O’ side of the On/Off
switch and unplug the Kettle immediately. Let the Kettle cool before
refilling.
13. DISCONNECT the Power Cord from the wall outlet when not in use.

CARE AND CLEANING
All servicing, other than cleaning, should be performed by an authorized
service representative. See Warranty section.
1. Exterior
- Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the exterior.
- DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. Dry exterior thoroughly before use.
- DO NOT immerse kettle or power base in water or other liquid
2. Installing the Filter
The filter must be inserted so that the smallest part of the filter is facing
down. Fit the notch in the filter onto the plastic support that runs
vertically below the spout. Gently push on the left side of the filter so
that it snaps into the horizontal slots on the left side of the spout.
Repeat on the right hand side.
NOTE: NEVER REMOVE OR INSTALL THE FILTER WHEN THE KETTLE
IS HOT.
3. Removing the Filter
To remove the Filter, gently pull one side out of the horizontal slots on
either side of the spout, then pull out the other side. Lift the filter out of
the kettle.
4. Descaling
Under normal use, a deposit of scale may form on the inside of the Kettle.
This scale build-up can be delayed by pouring out old water and refilling
before each use.
If descalling is required, follow the directions below:
- Unplug Power Cord from wall outlet and allow Kettle to cool completely.
- Open the Lid and remove the Filter as described above. Wash the Filter
under running water.
- Scale which has accumulated inside the Kettle can be removed by
boiling equal parts of white vinegar and water (2 cups of each is
recommended). Once the water has boiled, allow the mixture to stand
overnight. Empty out the mixture and fill the Kettle to the MAX level
with fresh water. Bring water to a boil and discard. For heavy scale
build-up, repeat this process.

A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If
the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
