Functions

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any promotional material attached to your kettle. It is recommended that before ﬁrst use, the kettle is ﬁlled to the maximum level with cold tap water, boiled and water discarded. Your kettle will only operate when positioned on the power base with the ‘On/Off’ switch in the ‘On’ position. The kettle will automatically switch off once the water has boiled.

OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE

To ﬁll the kettle, remove it from the power base and open lid by pressing the lid release button. Fill with the desired amount of water.

NOTE

Always ﬁll the kettle between the minimum (500ml) and maximum (1700ml) marks on the water window. Too little water will result in the kettle switching ‘Off’ before the water has boiled. Filling above the maximum mark (MAX) may result in boiling water splashing from the kettle.

Ensure the lid is locked ﬁrmly into place. Position the kettle securely onto the power base. Insert the power plug into a 230/240V power outlet and switch on.

Press the ‘On/Off’ switch to the ‘On’ position for water to boil.

The kettle will automatically switch ‘off’ once the water has boiled. Lift the kettle from the power base and pour the water. Take care to hold the kettle level, especially when ﬁlled to the maximum level. To re-boil it may be necessary to wait for a few seconds to allow the control to reset.

If further heating of the kettle is not required, switch ‘Off’ at the power outlet, unplug the power cord and empty the water from the kettle. Replace the kettle onto the power base and close the lid.

SAFETY BOIL DRY PROTECTION

The kettle is ﬁtted with a safety device, which protects against overheating should the appliance be operated with insufﬁcient water. If this occurs, the kettle will stop heating. Switch ‘Off’ at the power outlet and allow kettle to cool before reﬁlling. Remove the kettle from the power base and add water. Return the kettle to the power base. The safety device will then automatically reset.

For additional safety, your kettle is ﬁtted with an additional thermal cut out. In the event of overheating, the kettle will automatically shut down to prevent further damage. Should this occur, take your kettle to an authorized Breville Service Centre.

NOTE

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

REMOVABLE FILTER

NOTE

The ﬁlter could become damaged with time. Please check regularly and replace if found damaged.
