BEFORE USING YOUR KETTLE
1 Remove any packaging and promotional material from the kettle and
position the kettle on a dry, level, secure work surface away from the edge.
2 Before connecting to a power source, make sure your mains supply voltage
is the same as the one indicated on the base of the appliance. Connect the
plug to a suitable power outlet and ensure that the power cord does not
overhang the work surface.
3 Remove the kettle from the power base and open the lid by pressing the lid
release button. Fill the kettle to the maximum mark and close the lid.
4 Place the kettle back onto the power base. Ensure the kettle is not over-
filled. Always compare the water level against the maximum water mark,
with the kettle positioned on the power base.
5 Turn on the kettle by pressing the ON/OFF switch downwards.
Bring to the boil and then discard the water. Repeat this procedure two more
times. This removes any residues from the manufacturing process. Remove
and rinse the filter before use. See cleaning the filter section.

3 Observe the maximum level indicators marked on the water gauges to
prevent over filling. Fill the kettle with no more than the maximum amount
