USING YOUR KETTLE

Before using your kettle, you should wipe it inside and outside with a damp cloth due to hygienic reasons.

Initial use

• Place the base unit on a firm surface. The base unit must be dry before us.
• If the mains cord is longer than necessary it can be wound up at the bottom of the base unit.

• The ON/OFF switch only catches when the kettle is on the base unit.
• Do not use the water from the first boiling cycle to prepare food.
• Be careful not to spill any water onto the base unit.
• To reheat water, check the water level to ensure it is above the 0.75L water level. If necessary, add more water, then place kettle back onto base unit. Press ON/OFF switches down, into the ON position. You can switch it to OFF position when the temperature reaches your desire through the temperature dia.
