IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Follow basic safety precautions, including:

This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been supervised/instructed and understand the hazards involved.

Children shall not play with the appliance.

Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised.

Keep the appliance and cable out of reach of children under 8 years.

Don't fill above max, or the kettle may spit boiling water.

Use the kettle only with the stand supplied (and vice versa).

If the cable is damaged, return the kettle, to avoid any hazard.

The surfaces of the appliance will get hot.

Don't put the kettle, stand, cable, or plug in liquid.

• Keep the kettle, stand, and cable away from the edges of worktops.
• Unplug the stand when not in use.
• Don't use the kettle without fitting the filter.
• Use the kettle only for heating water.
• Don't use it if it's damaged or malfunctions.

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

PARTS

1. Filter
2. Lid
3. Handle

4. Rapid boil zones marker

5. Switch

6. Stand
7. Water level gauge

BEFORE FIRST USE

Fill to max, boil, discard the water, then rinse. Do this twice to remove any manufacturing dust, etc.

FILLING

1. Open the lid.
2. Fill with at least 1 cup of water, but not above max.
3. If you want only 1, 2, or 3 cups of water, fill to the 1, 2, or 3 marks inside the kettle.
4. Close the lid, and press down to lock it.

USING YOUR KETTLE

1. Put the stand on a stable, level surface. Wind excess cable beneath the stand.
2. Plug the stand into the wall socket.
3. Put the kettle on the stand.
4. Move the switch to I. The light will come on and the kettle will start to heat.
5. When it boils, the kettle will switch off.
6. To switch off manually, move the switch to O, or simply lift the kettle off the stand.

GENERAL

When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. Don't worry – it's the steam used to

switch off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents under the kettle.

BOIL DRY PROTECTION

1. This will shorten the life of the element. A boil-dry cut-out will switch the kettle off.
2. You must then remove the kettle from its stand to reset the cut-out.
3. Sit the kettle on the work surface till it's cold.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Unplug the stand, and let the kettle cool before cleaning.
2. Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.
3. Keep the connectors dry.
4. Open the lid.
5. Push the hook on top of the filter down then lift the filter out of the kettle (fig A).
6. Rinse the filter under a running tap while brushing with a soft brush.
7. Lower the filter into the kettle, and engage the bottom hook in the bottom of the spout.
8. Press the top of the filter towards the kettle, to lock the hook in place.
9. Close the lid.

Descale regularly, at least monthly

Descale the appliance at least monthly with a proprietary descaler.

Follow the instructions on the package of descaler.

Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will incur a repair charge.
