Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. 4 Do not touch hot surfaces or hot water. Use handles or knobs. Care must be taken since burns can occur from touching hot parts or from spilled hot liquid. 5 To protect against fire, electric shock, and personal injury, do not immerse cord, plug, power base, or electric kettle in water or other liquid. 6 Unplug from outlet when kettle is not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance. 7 Do not operate any appliance with a damaged supply cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Supply cord replacement and repairs must be conducted by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Other Consumer Safety Information This appliance is intended for household use only. To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance. w WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with either a polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized or grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet. The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounding type, the extension cord should be a grounding- type, 3-wire cord. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. w WARNING Burn Hazard To avoid burns and reduce risk of personal injury, use extreme caution when carrying kettle containing hot water. Do not pour in the direction of people or over people.1 Unplug Kettle before filling. 2 Fill Kettle with desired amount of water. Make sure to cover the element. The water level must be between minimum and maximum indicator lines on the water level indicator. w WARNING Burn Hazard If Kettle is overfilled there is a risk that boiling water may spit out of the spout. NOTE: This Kettle has a built-in safety feature for protection should the unit be plugged in without an adequate amount of water or if the Kettle boils dry. 3 Make sure that the Lid is in place and the Kettle or Power Base (cordless models only) is standing on a level surface. If the Lid is not in place auto shut-off will not operate. All Kettle cords must be kept away from hot surfaces. 4 For cordless models, ensure Kettle is correctly engaged on Base. (See illustration.) 5 Plug into outlet. 6 Switch to ON (I) position. A light will come on when the Kettle is on. 7 The Kettle will switch off automatically when the water has boiled or you can manually shut the Kettle OFF ( ) when desired. IMPORTANT: Ensure that the cordless Kettle has switched off automatically or is switched off manually before removing it from the Base. 8 Unplug Kettle before pouring. 9 If you want to refill Kettle immediately, first check the water level indicator and then, if required, run cold water in through the spout. 10 After use, unplug the Kettle and empty. 11 Do not hold the switch on while the Kettle is boiling.
