Frequently Asked Questions - the Smart Kettle Luxe BKE845 BREVILLE

How to set the water temperature on the Breville Smart Kettle Luxe BKE845?

Press the Temperature button to scroll through the options: 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, 80°C, 90°C, and 100°C. The LED screen displays the selected temperature. The kettle then heats to that temperature and goes into standby or keep-warm mode according to your choice.

What to do if the kettle does not turn on?

Check that the base is properly plugged in and the kettle is correctly placed on the rotating base. Make sure the cord is not damaged. If the problem persists, check the fuse of your electrical installation or contact Breville customer service.

How to clean and descale my kettle?

To descale, fill the kettle with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:2) or use citric acid. Bring to a boil, let it sit for 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Clean the exterior with a soft damp cloth. The anti-scale filter should be removed and cleaned separately.

Can I use the kettle to heat milk or other liquids?

No, this kettle is designed only for heating water. Heating milk or other liquids can damage the appliance and cause injury. Use it exclusively for water.

The kettle makes an abnormal noise, what to do?

A slight noise during boiling is normal. If the noise is loud or unusual, check if the anti-scale filter is clogged or if limescale has accumulated. Perform descaling. If the noise persists, contact customer service.

How to use the keep-warm function?

After selecting the desired temperature, press the Keep warm button (maintenance symbol). The kettle will keep the water at that temperature for about 20 minutes, then turn off automatically.

What is the maximum capacity of the kettle?

The maximum capacity is 1.7 liters. Do not exceed the maximum level indicated on the water level window to avoid overflow.

The kettle stops before boiling, why?

This may be due to necessary descaling or a faulty temperature sensor. Make sure the lid is properly closed. If the problem persists after descaling, contact customer service.

How to replace the anti-scale filter?

The anti-scale filter is located inside the kettle, near the spout. Gently pull it out to remove. Clean it under running water or replace it with a Breville replacement filter. Insert the new filter by pushing until it clicks into place.

Is the kettle compatible with an induction base?

No, this kettle works only with its included rotating base. It is not compatible with induction cooktops because the bottom is not magnetic. Always use the original base.

VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The electronic control panel offers five different temperature settings for optimal tea and coffee brewing: 175^ F, 195^ F, 200^ F, 205^ F, and 212^ F.

GREEN	OOLONG	FRENCH	BLACK	BOIL
WHITE		PRESS	HERBAL

175°F 195°F 200°F 205°F 212°F

NOTE

This product is not calibrated for commercial or scientific use. Temperatures may vary +/-3 °C degrees, being within range for optimal brewing for each type of tea or coffee.

OPTIMAL BREWING

Tea varieties are grown and produced in many different environments and require different water temperatures to allow their unique flavor and aroma to develop during brewing. To bring out the optimal quality and taste of more delicate tea leaves, a lower temperature will produce a better flavored cup of tea.

For example, steeping green, white or oolong teas in boiling water may scald the tea leaves and result in a bitter, astringent brew.

Brewing the tea for too long may also result in a bitter, unpleasant taste, while brewing for too short a period may leave the tea bland. For best results always follow the specific directions on the tea/coffee packet.

To bring out the optimal taste and quality of your favourite tea or coffee, we recommend that you use your Breville Smart Kettle™ Luxe at the suggested temperature for your selected tea or coffee.

The table on the following page provides a guide to a range of tea and coffee varieties and the recommended temperature to select on the control panel of the Breville Smart Kettle™ Luxe.

KEEP WARM FUNCTION

The Breville Smart Kettle™ Luxe offers a convenient KEEP WARM function that can be used before, during or on completion of the water heating cycle. When the water has reached the selected temperature, the KEEP WARM function will hold the selected temperature for 20 minutes. If the 212° setting is selected when using the KEEP WARM function, the boiled water will remain at approximately 200°F for 20 minutes.

To activate the KEEP WARM function, first press the desired water temperature button from the five options on the control panel. Then press the KEEP WARM button, followed by the START/CANCEL button to commence heating the water. Alternatively, the KEEP WARM button can be activated at any time during the heating cycle and/or within one minute after the heating cycle has completed.

If the kettle is removed from the power base during the KEEP WARM function the kettle will automatically switch off.

NOTE

If temperature is changed during the KEEP WARM function, the START/CANCEL button surround will illuminate in red.

• When the kettle remains plugged into the power outlet and different temperature settings have been selected, the kettle will default to the last selected temperature setting.

NOTE

This kettle must be used only with the power base supplied. Use caution when pouring water from your kettle, as boiling / heated water and steam will scald. Do not pour the water too quickly.

NOTE

Always fill the kettle to between the minimum and maximum marks on the water window on the kettle. Filling above the maximum mark on the water window of the kettle may result in boiling/heated water splashing from the kettle.

SAFETY BOIL DRY PROTECTION

The kettle is fitted with a safety device, which protects against overheating should the kettle be operated with insufficient water. If this occurs the kettle will stop heating. Unplug the kettle from the power point and allow kettle to cool before refilling and plugging the kettle back into the power point. The safety device will automatically reset when the kettle has cooled down.

Care & Cleaning

Always unplug the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.

REMOVABLE FILTER

The Breville Smart Kettle ^™ Luxe features a removable mesh filter to remove scale deposits for cleaner water. To clean the scale deposits from the filter, remove the filter by opening the lid and sliding the filter up and out of the kettle.

The filter can be cleaned by placing under running hot water and rubbing with a cleaning cloth or brush. To replace the filter, simply slide the filter down into the slot behind the spout of the kettle and push back into position.

NOTE

The filter could become damaged with time, so please check regularly and replace if found damaged.

DESCALING

It is essential that regular descaling takes place. Frequency will depend on the usage of the kettle and the hardness of the water in your area. A build-up of scale may cause the inside of the kettle to discolour and ultimately may damage the element. This will affect the efficiency of the appliance and may invalidate the warranty agreement. We recommend the use of Breville Kettle Cleaner as it's specially formulated for descaling kettles. To order, contact Breville Consumer Support.

Follow the instructions for use on the Kettle Cleaner packaging for best results.

Directions for use:

1. Fill the kettle two-thirds full with 1 part vinegar and 2 parts water. Boil and allow to stand overnight.
2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle with clean water, bring to the boil and discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will be ready for use.

TO CLEAN THE EXTERIOR

The outside of the kettle should be wiped with a damp cloth then polished with a soft, dry cloth.

NOTE

Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the kettle.

STORAGE

Ensure the kettle is unplugged, clean and dry before storing. Ensure that the lid is closed and locked securely into place. Wrap the power cord around the power cord storage under the power base. Stand the kettle upright on the power base. Do not store anything on top.
