GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (3-PRONG PLUG)

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with
a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.

Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

• The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least

that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension
cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.

BEFORE THE FIRST OPERATION

For a perfect taste, operate the jug kettle with fresh water in order to
clean any residue left from the manufacturing process. When the
appliance has cooled down, repeat the process 3 times with fresh
water, before rinsing.

OPERATION

•

Always remove the jug from the power base before filling it or
before any operation.

•

Open the lid by pressing its release button and fill the tank with
fresh water, paying attention not to fill under the minimum mark
and above the maximum mark on the water level indicator. Too
little water may result in the kettle switching off before the water
has reached temperature.

•

Close the lid by pressing it down until it you hear a click. Make
sure it closes correctly.

•

Put the jug onto the power base, plug into the wall socket. The
temperature “212” will flash for approx. 10 seconds. Your kettle is
operational.

•

Your kettle can be used both for boiling water or bring it to your
desired temperature. This is particularly interesting for the
preparation of hot beverages, most especially tea, as the ideal
brewing temperature can be different from one sort to the other.

•

Press the on/off button on the control panel to turn the kettle on.
The water boiling temperature “212” (°F) will flash for a few
seconds, during which the temperature can be changed to your
liking. For this, press “+” or “-“ to set the kettle to the desired
temperature. When the screen stops blinking, the temperature is
set and the kettle will start warming the water. The red “Power” LED
is lit.

•

When the kettle reaches the desired temperature, the kettle will
turn off and will produce 5 short beeps. The water temperature is
displayed for a few seconds and the kettle will turn off
automatically.

•

When the kettle is off, you can check the temperature of the water
anytime by pressing any button on the control panel.

KEEP WARM FUNCTION

You can program the water kettle to keep a preset temperature. Set
the desired temperature as explained in the paragraph
“OPERATION” and press on the Keep warm button while the
temperature is still flashing on the display. The “Keep Warm” LED turns
on, and will keep the water warm until the kettle is lifted from its base
or shut off. The water kettle emits 2 short beeps to remind you of the
warm water.

NOTES:

• Always disconnect the power supply when not in use.

• When pouring a large quantity of hot water, pour slowly and do

not incline the kettle past the horizontal line to avoid burns and
injuries

• The water kettle can only display the temperatures in Fahrenheit
degrees (°F), not in Celsius degrees (°C)

SAFETY CUT-OUT

•

This jug kettle is protected with an automatic safety device if
accidentally switched on without water.

•

If this happens, switch off the appliance by putting the switch in
OFF position and wait about 10 minutes for the element to cool.
Then pour in sufficient cold water to cover the element. This will
reset the safety device.

•

The kettle may then be used as normal.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

•

Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the
appliance is unplugged from the supply socket and fully cooled
down.

•

To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft damp
cloth and dry thoroughly.

•

Never use abrasive products

•

On no account shall the jug kettle or its power base be immersed
in water.
