1 Fill the kettle through either the
spout or by removing the lid. The water level must be between ‘MAX’ and 2 cups (500mls).

Empty the kettle after each use. 2 Check the lid is closed. 3 Plug in and switch on. The indicator
light will come on. 4 Your kettle will boil and switch off
automatically. To re-boil, wait a few

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.

the kettle may take longer to boil.
the flat element may be damaged.
Please note: Failure to descale your kettle may invalidate your guarantee.

W
hen limescale starts to build up on the heating element, buy a s
uitable descaler and descale your
k
ettle. After descaling, boil with fresh water several times and discard. Clean any descaler off the kettle - it can damage the parts.
Some regions of the country have chalky water. This makes boiled water look cloudy and leaves a deposit on the side of the kettle. This is normal but can be removed with regular cleaning.
Alternatively, to reduce limescale build up, use filtered water to fill your kettle.
