SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS:

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks of becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.

Longer extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised.

If a long extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance. The longer 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. This appliance is of the grounded
type (three pronged). If using an extension cord, it
should also be a grounded 3 wire cord.

quickly become part of your daily routine. One
touch of the on/off switch begins the heating
process. In just minutes, this contemporary cordless
kettle brings up to 1-3/4 quarts (1.7 L) of water to

Making Tea with your Cord l e s s
Automatic Electric Jug Kettle

The most traditional use for a kettle is making tea.
Your Cuisinart®kettle will be a fast and convenient
way to make your cup of tea.

Whether using tea bags or loose tea, buy the best
you can. The flavour will only be as good as the
quality of the tea. Tea tastes best when steeped in
a ceramic pot or cup.

For best results, use your Cordless Electric Jug
Kettle following the operating instructions on p.4,
as well as the following tips:

1. Fill kettle with fresh, cold water.

2. Place an infuser with loose tea or tea bag(s) in
your ceramic pot or cup.

3. Wait for kettle to click off, and immediately
pour the boiling water onto the tea.

4. The tea should be allowed to steep for 3 to 5
minutes. The longer it steeps, the stronger it is.
For iced tea, brew tea double-strength
(steep twice as long) and pour over ice.

5. Stir and serve as desired.
