kettle lid and, holding the infuser by its pinch bar, insert it into the
kettle with its rounded plastic side toward the spout. The top of the
infuser should rest on the edge of the lid opening.

Securely close the lid and let tea steep according to directions,
recipe, or preference. (See chart on p. 10 for suggested steeping
times.) Using the pinch bar, carefully remove infuser when finished
steeping.

and water will be very hot.

To serve, lift the kettle off its base and pour. If there is water or tea
remaining, return the kettle to the base to keep warm for up to
1 hour. (See p. 12 for more about the Keep Warm function.)
