placed under the dispensing spout of the kettle on
the drip tray. Do not overfill the cup as the water
is very hot.
It is recommended that a vessel/cup capable of

water is placed under the dispensing spout at all
times to capture the dispensed water should the
unit be inadvertently turned on.
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse
the Hot Cup base, power base, power cord or
power plug in water or allow moisture to come in
contact with these parts.
Do not remove the Hot Cup from the power base
