SAFETY AND OTHER FEATURES
Removable Scale Filter
The filter traps scale. If you fill the kettle via the spout, the
effectiveness of this filter will be reduced.
A:
To remove the filter: Allow the kettle to cool and open the lid.
Gently press the catch at the top of the filter between finger and
thumb and pull the filter back slightly. Lift the filter out.
CLEANING
Switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the socket
outlet before cleaning. The appliance can be wiped clean with
a damp cloth.
Remove the filter. Brush the filter in running water to remove
any adhered scale. After cleaning replace the filter.
DESCALING
In hard water areas furring or lime deposits forming on the
concealed element may result in increased boiling time and
affect the kettle operation. If this deposit is not removed it can
cause damage to the kettle. The scale can be removed by using
an appropriate descaler available from Tesco and hardware
stores or chemists. Follow the instructions with the descaler.
After descaling boil the kettle several times with fresh water
before use. Do not descale too often as this may shorten the life
of the element. Thoroughly clean the exterior of your kettle to
remove any traces of descaler; failure to do so may damage it.
Do not immerse any part of this appliance in water or other
liquid when cleaning the appliance and never use any abrasive
cleaners or scourers.
STORAGE
Excess cord can be stowed by feeding the cord into the storage
cavity in the base of the unit. When not in use the kettle should
be stored on its base out of the reach of children and pets.
B:
To replace the filter: Locate the bottom of the filter in the slot
at the base of the spout. Press the catch down and ease the filter
into place. Do not use force.
Boil Switch with Auto Cut-Out
When boiling water, do NOT hold the switch down or steam
will be ejected from the lid and you may damage the automatic
switch off mechanism. Always ensure that the ON/OFF switch
is clear of obstructions, readily operable and is not prevented
from switching off.
Boil Dry Protection
Your kettle is fitted with a safety device which switches it off if
the appliance is operated with insufficient water. If this occurs,
the kettle should be switched off at the mains and allowed
to cool thoroughly before refilling with cold water. The safety
device will then reset.
Overheating Shut -Off
In the event of gross overheating, your kettle will automatically
shut down to prevent further damage. Should this occur, take it
to a qualified service person for examination and repair.
