BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using the appliance for the first time, fill with water, boil
and pour away.
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
1 Wherever possible fill through the spout, as this helps to free the
filter from limescale build-up.
• Always ensure that the level of water in the kettle is filled to at
least the minimum level shown on the water level indicator.
• Boil only as much water as you need as this saves electricity.
2 Place the kettle on the base unit, ensuring the kettle locates on to
the 360° connector.
• The 360° connector allows the kettle to be located at any position
- ideal for left and right handed users and for convenient
positioning on worktop.
3 Plug in and switch on at the wall socket, if applicable.
4 Switch the kettle on. The water tank will illuminate.
5 When the water boils the kettle will switch off automatically.
• If you are using the kettle for the first time, pour away the boiled
water and refill.
6 Lift the kettle from the base unit by the handle ensuring you hold
the kettle level.
• To re-boil, switch to ON again. If the kettle has just switched off
wait a minute or so before switching it back on again.
• If you do not put in enough water, or switch on the kettle when it is
empty, the safety cut-out will switch off the power automatically. If
this happens, refill and wait a few minutes for the element to cool,
then use as normal.
Filter removal
1 Open the lid.
2 Lift the filter upwards from its holder.
3 To refit the filter, slide it into the side wall guides of the filter holder
until it clicks into place.
WARNING: Unless the filter is fitted correctly, the kettle lid
may not close and lock securely.
Descaling
IMPORTANT: As this appliance is fitted with a concealed element
it must be descaled regularly. The frequency of descaling depends
on usage and the hardness of the water in your area.
Excessive scale can cause the appliance to switch off before
boiling and may damage the element invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling takes place.
Remove hard scale using a proprietary descaling product suitable
for stainless steel, glass or plastic.
For stainless steel kettles please follow the instructions carefully.
Alternatively use citric acid crystals (available from most
pharmacies) as follows:
1 Fill the appliance 3/4 full, boil, then unplug the appliance (remove
the cordless kettle from the base unit) and stand it in an empty
sink or bowl.
2 Gradually add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the water, then leave
the kettle to stand. Do not use a more concentrated solution.
3 As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the appliance and
rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
4 Wipe the outside of the appliance thoroughly with a damp cloth to
remove all traces of acid which may damage the finish.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the electrical connections are
completely dry before using the appliance.
