Instructions For Use



   Before using for the first time we recommend operating the kettle 2 

or 3 times. This will remove any dust or residue remaining from its 
manufacture. Fill to the MAX mark fill level (1.7L), bring to the boil and 
when boiling has finished and the kettle has switched off, discard the 
water and rinse out the inside.



   Position the kettle on a flat sturdy surface with the spout facing away 

from you. Gently lift off the lid, whilst holding the handle.



   Fill the kettle with the required amount of cold water. The water gauge 

is either side of the kettle and is marked with min and max. Please take 
care not to exceed the max mark as this may cause spitting from the 
spout when boiling.



   Position the kettle with the spout facing away from you. Replace lid on 

kettle.



   Align the kettle over the power base and gently lower it into position; it 

will find its own way and sit firmly on the base.



   Switch the kettle on by pressing down the power ‘On’ switch at the rear 

of the kettle. You will hear a slight click and the switch will illuminate 
with a blue LED.



   The kettle will switch off automatically when it has finished boiling. 

However, the kettle can be switched off at any time by simply lifting the 
power ‘On’ switch in an upwardly direction. The LED will switch off and 
the same click will be heard as switching on.



   Pour water out slowly. Return kettle to base after pouring. If you wish to 

re-boil the water, you must press the power ‘On’ switch again.

N.B. A couple of water droplets or condensation may appear on the 

powerbase, this is quite normal and not a leak.

N.B. Do not remove the lid of the kettle when pouring; escaping steam 

may scald.
