TO USE YOUR KETTLE
1 Fill the kettle through either the spout or lid. To open the lid, pull back
the lid release catch (2) (Fig.1).
- The water level must be between ‘MAX’ and ‘MIN’.
- Be economical: do not boil more water than you need.
- To improve the quality of your drinks always use fresh water.
- Empty the kettle after each use.
2 Check the lid is closed. Close the lid making sure the lid release catch
is locked.
3 Plug in and
- either, push the “on/off/KEEP WARM” switch down (Fig.2) to reach 212°F (100°C), the
indicator light will come on and the inside of the kettle will illuminate
through a color sequence.
Your kettle will boil and switch off automatically at 212°F (100°C).
To re-boil, wait a few seconds - the on/off switch needs time to
reset.
- or, push the “on/off/KEEP WARM” switch up (Fig 3) to reach 176°F (80°C) and
keep warm for re-boil. The indicator light will come on and the inside of the kettle will illu-
minate orange and flash when 176°F (80°C) is reached.
In the re-boil position the kettle will switch off automatically once the
kettle is removed from the powerbase, indicated by all lights on the
kettle going out.
- If you experience problems with your kettle switching on and off
during use or switching off before boiling, check that the flat element
is free from scale - see “descaling”.
- Your kettle is fitted with a filter to hold back limescale particles.
- If you find drops of water under your kettle, don’t worry - it is just condensation.
Boil-dry protection
- If you switch the kettle on with too little water, the boil dry protection feature will shut your
kettle off automatically. Switch off, remove from the powerbase and let it cool down before
re-filling. When it has cooled down, the switch will reset itself.
CARE AND CLEANING
- Before cleaning, unplug your kettle and let it cool down.
The outside and powerbase
- Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry. Do not use abrasives - they will
scratch the metal and plastic surfaces.
The inside
- Even though your kettle comes with a filter, you still need to clean the
inside (and the filter) regularly.
The filter
1 Open the lid.
2 Unclip the filter (Fig.4).
