children, remove and safely discard the
protective cover fitted to the power plug
of this appliance.

• This appliance has been designed

specifically for the purpose of heating
and boiling drinking quality water only.
Under no circumstances should this
product be used to heat or boil any other
liquids or foodstuffs.

• Do not place the kettle near the edge of

a bench or table during operation. Ensure
that the surface is level, clean and free
of water.

• Do not place the kettle on or near a hot

gas burner, electric element or where it
could touch a heated oven.

• Keep the kettle clear of walls, curtains and

other heat or steam sensitive materials.
Minimum 8 inch distance.

• Do not operate the kettle on a sink

drain board.

• Always ensure the kettle is properly

assembled before connecting to a power
outlet and operating. To disconnect, turn
any control off, then remove plug from
the power outlet. Follow the instructions
provided in this book.

• The kettle must be used only with the

power base supplied. Do not use on a
range top.

• The kettle is not intended to be operated

by means of an external timer or separate
remote control system.

• Unwind the power cord fully before use.

4

• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of

a table or counter, touch hot surfaces or
become knotted.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the handle

for lifting and carrying the kettle.

• Do not place anything on top of the lid.

• Always remove the power plug from the

power outlet before attempting tomove
the appliance, when the appliance is not
in use and before cleaning and storing.
Allow to cool before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning the
appliance.

• Use caution when pouring water

from the kettle, as boiling water and
steam will scald. Do not pour the water
too quickly.

• To protect against fire, electric shock and

injury to persons, do not immerse the
kettle base, power base, power cord or
power plug in water or any other liquid.
Do not allow moisture to come in contact
with these parts.

• Do not remove the kettle from the power

base during operation. Ensure the kettle
has switched off after the water has boiled
before removing the kettle from the
power base.

• Do not move the appliance while it is

switched on.

• Do not open the lid during operation as

scalding may occur.

• Keep the appliance clean. Refer to care

and cleaning.

• Do not use harsh abrasives, caustic

completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.

BREVILLE ASSIST™ PLUG

Your Breville appliance comes with a unique
Assist™ Plug, conveniently designed with
a finger hole in the power plug for easy
and safe removal from the wall outlet. For
safety reasons it is recommended you plug
your Breville appliance directly into its
own electrical outlet on a dedicated circuit
separate from other appliances. If the electric
circuit is overloaded with other appliances,
your appliance may not function properly.
Use in conjunction with a power strip or
extension cord is not recommended.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

Your Breville appliance is fitted with a short
power supply cord as a safety precaution to
prevent personal injury or property damage
resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming
entangled with a longer cord. Do not allow
children to use or be near this appliance
without close adult supervision. Longer
detachable power supply cords or extension
cords are not recommended but may be
used if care is exercised. If an extension cord
is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of
the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, (2) the cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally and
(3) the extension cord must include a 3-prong
grounding plug.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

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, 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. Press the ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position and allow the 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, contact Breville
Consumer Service.

This appliance is designed for boiling
drinking quality water only. Never
use to heat or boil any other liquids
or foodstuffs. The lid should always
be firmly in place and locked into the
closed position before use.

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 then
boiled. Discard the water. Your kettle will

base and open the lid by pressing the lid
release button. Fill with the desired amount

Too little water will result in the kettle

boiled. Filling above maximum (MAX)
mark may result in boiling water
splashing from the kettle.

Close the lid, ensuring it is locked firmly
into place. Position the kettle securely onto
the power base and insert the power plug
into a 110/120V power outlet. Press the
ON/OFF switch to the ON position for
water to boil.

NOTE

To operate correctly, the kettle should
always be used with the scale filter
firmly in place.
