3.1.Before use:

3.1.1. Remove the appliance's protective film(if applicable).
3.1.2. Before using the product for the first time, clean the parts that will come into contact with food in the manner described in the cleaning section.

3.2 Use and care:

3.2.1. 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. (Note: You may also fill through the spout, but be careful not to overfill - use water level gauge to check).
3.2.2. Close the lid until it clips. Place the kettle on the base and plug into the mains.
3.2.3. To switch on the kettle, press the On/Off switch to position 1. (CAUTION): Do not place downward pressure on the switch). 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 to position 0.
3.2.4. Pour slowly and carefully. If you wish to reboil, please allow a minute for the kettle to cool down.
3.2.5 Warning: If the kettle has just boiled it will be full of steam that will escape if the lid is opened.
3.2.6 IMPORTANT: Do not open the lid when steam is coming out of the spout. Before pouring or filling always remember to disconnect from electricity.
3.2.7 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 ± 15 minutes 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 element. If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected. The kettle is only to be used with the stand provided (cordless models only). The appliance must not be immersed in liquid 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.

6.1.3. Do not overfill. Check the water level gauge when filling.
6.1.4. Never remove the cord from the kettle while in operation. Switch off the appliance first.

6.1.7. Take care when pouring. Pour slowly and do not over-tilt.
6.1.8. Make sure the kettle is always used on a flat surface.

6.1.9. Water will remain hot for considerable time after boiling and will present a scalding hazard. Take care and keep away from children.
