When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

1. Check that the voltage in your home corresponds to that stated on the rating label of the appliance.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To prevent fire and protect against electrical shock do not immerse base, cord, plug, or the jug kettle in water or other liquids.
4. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Please use and keep the kettle and its supply cord out of the reach of children.
6. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Immediately remove the plug if you notice the kettle is not operating correctly. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
8. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
9. Do not use outdoors, this product is for domestic use only.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
11. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
12. To disconnect, put the switch in off position, then remove plug from wall outlet.
13. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

14. Do not use the kettle when you have wet hands.

15. Do not place the base of your kettle in a metal tray. If water spills over into the tray, and a build-up occurs, it could become dangerous to touch.

16. Position the kettle to the rear of work surfaces to prevent over hanging of the power cord. Water can remain hot for a considerable time after boiling and can present a scald hazard.

17. Scalding may occur if the lid of the jug kettle is removed during the heating cycles.

18. Make sure the appliance never comes into contact with inflammable materials such as curtains or textiles when it is in use as they might catch fire.

19. When removing mineral deposit, only use special products formulated for the removal of mineral deposit (decalcifying solutions). Never use ammonia or any other substance that might damage your health.

20. Do NOT use abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the kettle, to avoid permanent damage to the surface.

21. Ensure that the kettle is properly positioned on the power base before switching on.

22. Do NOT refill with water while the appliance is switched on.

23. Remove the kettle from power base before filling or pouring. If the base becomes wet, unplug the kettle from the power outlet and switch off. After it has become dry, you may replace the kettle on the base, after ensuring that the kettle is switched off.

24. Use the kettle only with the power base supplied and vice versa.

25. Use on a hard, flat level surface only.

26. If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected.

27. Extreme caution must be used when handling or moving kettle and pouring from the kettle containing boiling water.

28. Before pouring, wait until the kettle has stopped boiling and then pour steadily. If the kettle is tipped too much, the lid may fall off or open.

29. Make sure that the lid and the filter are correctly and securely fitted before switching on the appliance. Failure to do so will cause the kettle not to switch off, and boiling water might eject through the spout causing scalding or injuries.

30. When pouring a large quantity of hot water, pour slowly and do not incline the kettle past the horizontal line to avoid burns and injuries.

31. When you are done using the appliance, switch it off and unplug the power cord from the wall socket.

32. WARNING: a cordless kettle must never be filled on its base.
33. NEVER use the appliance to boil anything other than water.
34. NEVER use near a flame or hot surface.
35. NEVER put any part of the hand or body near the appliance when switched on. Steam is invisible and will cause scalding or injury.
36. NEVER use the appliance if it has been dropped on the floor or damaged in any way, in such cases contact customer service.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

3-PRONG PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong, grounding type, wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong, wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. Do not use with an extension cord.

Remove all various packaging, stickers, or accessories from both the inside and outside of the kettle.

Adjust the length of the cord by winding it under the base.

For the perfect taste, operate the cordless water kettle with fresh water in order to clean any residue left from the manufacturing process. When the appliance has cooled down, repeat the process 3 times with fresh water, before rinsing.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Always remove the kettle from the power base before filling it or before any operation.
• Open the lid by pressing on the lid opening button and fill the tank with fresh water, paying attention not to fill under the minimum mark or above the maximum mark indicated on the glass housing of the kettle.
• Close the lid by pressing down until it you hear a click. Make sure it closes correctly.
• This appliance must only be used with its matching base and anti-scale filter.
• Make sure the spout filter is well in position, as the auto-shut off feature might not work.
• Place the kettle onto the power base, plug into the wall socket, and switch on using the on/off switch located on the handle. Blue light will illuminate, indicating the appliance is operating. If it does not turn on, check if the kettle is correctly positioned on the base or if the base is properly plugged in. Do not open the lid while the water is heating or boiling.
• The cordless water kettle will switch off automatically when the water boils.
• The interior blue LED light will also go out once the water reaches boiling point.
• However, you can stop the appliance anytime by switching to off position or lifting the kettle from the power base.

CAUTION: Make sure that the lid is closed, and the filter is correctly and securely fitted before switching on the appliance. Failure to do so will cause the kettle not to switch off.

• Do not leave water in the kettle after use as this quickens the formation of scale.
• For instant re-boiling, wait until water has cooled down and switch on the appliance again.
• The kettle will not re-boil until the switch is pressed again.
• The kettle may be stored on the power base when not in use.
  • Always disconnect the power supply when not in use.
• When pouring a large quantity of hot water, pour slowly and do not incline the kettle past the horizontal line to avoid burns and injuries.

SAFETY CUT-OUT

• This cordless water kettle is protected with an automatic safety device, if accidentally switched on without water. Please bear in mind that only the thermostat is switched off in case of overheat, whereas the switch stays in the ON-position.
• If this happens, switch off the appliance by putting the switch in the OFF position and wait about 10 minutes for the element to cool. Then pour in sufficient cold water to cover the element. This will reset the safety device.
  • The kettle may then be used as normal.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the appliance is unplugged from the supply socket and fully cooled down.
• To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
• Never use abrasive products, powders or scouring pads.
• Under no circumstances shall the jug kettle or its power base be immersed in water.
• To remove mineral deposits from the water kettle, use products (decalcifying solutions) made especially available for this purpose. Make sure to use a type recommended for kettles or coffee makers.

Follow the guidelines as recommended by the manufacturer of the de-calcifying solution. Rinse well.

FILTER
