Empty the water out of the kettle after the
first boiling
To clean away any deposits that are left in the kettle after the manufacturing
process
Descale as appropriate for the hardness of
the water in your area
It is important to descale as the performance of the kettle and auto
switch-off will be impaired
Safety first
Always pour water slowly and carefully to prevent the splashing of
scalding water
Fast boil kettles perform differently
If your kettle is a fast boil model, it may sound louder during boiling and
switch off suddenly with no after noise - this is normal

requires the following of basic common
sense safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of injury or
death and secondly the danger of
damage to the appliance. These are
indicated in the text by the following two
conventions:
WARNING: Danger to the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to the
appliance! In addition we offer the

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
• The mains lead should reach from the
socket to the base unit without
straining the connections.
• Do not let the mains lead hang over
the edge of the worktop where a child
could reach it.
• Do not let the lead run across an open
space e.g. between a low socket and
table.
• Do not let the lead run across a cooker
or toaster or other hot area which
might damage the cable.
• Do not place the kettle where the
mains lead could fall into a sink.
• Always pour hot water slowly and
carefully without tipping the kettle too
fast to prevent splashing and spillage.
• Extreme caution must be used when
moving a kettle containing hot water.
• Do not touch hot surfaces, use handles
or knobs.
• Always close the lid securely, other
wise the kettle may not switch off
automatically and may spit out boiling
water.
• Avoid contact with steam from the
spout when the water is boiling or just
after it has switched off.
• Take care if opening the lid for re-filling
when the kettle is hot
• Do not fill above the MAX mark,
otherwise boiling water may be
ejected.
• Do not hold the switch in the on
position or tamper with the switch to fix
it in the on position as this may cause
steam to be ejected and could damage
the switch-off mechanism.
• Unplug from the electrical outlet when
cleaning.
• Allow to cool before putting on or
taking off parts and before cleaning.

Check that the voltage on the rating
plate of your appliance corresponds with
your house electricity supply which must
be A.C. (Alternating Current).
If the socket outlets in your home are
not suitable for the plug supplied with this
appliance, the plug should be removed
and the appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed from
the mains lead, if severed, must be
destroyed as a plug with bared flexible
cord is hazardous if engaged into a
live socket outlet.
WARNING: This appliance must be
earthed.
Should the fuse in the 13amp plug
require changing, a 13amp BS1362 fuse
must be fitted.

1 Remove the lid and fill the kettle.
The integrated water level gauge/
viewing lid allows you to easily see the
amount of water in this kettle.
• Always put enough water to cover the
bottom of the kettle, minimum 1 cup
200cc.
• 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
o
360
connector.
• The 360o connector allows the kettle
to be located at any position - ideal for
left and right handed users and
convenient positioning on your
worktop.
3 Plug in and switch on at the wall
socket.
4 Switch the kettle on. The ‘power on’
indicator neon on top of the handle
will light up.
5 When the water boils, the kettle will
switch off automatically and the
whistle will sound, to indicate that the
water has boiled and has switched off
automatically.
• The whistle can be switched off for
silent operation. The switch is on the
underside of the base unit.
• If you are using the kettle for the first
time, pour away the boiled water and
refill.
6 When lifting the kettle from the base
unit by the handle ensure you hold
the kettle level.
• To reboil, switch to ON again. if the
kettle has just switched off wait
several seconds 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,
wait a few minutes for the element to
cool, then refill and use as normal.
1 Open the lid.
2 Lift the filter upwards from its location
using the tab provided. Note which
way you have removed the filter and
replace the same way after cleaning.
3 To refit the filter, slot it into the guides
and press down firmly until it clicks
into place. Ensure the filter is correctly
located into the central guide.
Note: Which way you have removed
the filter and replace the same way
after cleaning.
WARNING: Unless the filter is fitted
correctly, the kettle lid may not close
and lock securely.
Cleaning the filter
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
1 To clean the filter run warm water over
the mesh and scrub lightly to remove
the soft deposits with a suitable brush.
A toothbrush would be ideal.
2 If the soft lime deposits have become
hard, the filter will need descaling, see
descaling page 5.

Descaling
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
6 Never operate the kettle with the citric
acid crystals in the water.
IMPORTANT: As this kettle is fitted
with a concealed element it must be
descaled as and when appropriate. This
depends on usage and the hardness of
the water in your area.
Scale can cause the kettle to
malfunction and may damage the
element invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling
takes place.
Remove hard scale using either a
proprietary descaling product suitable for
plastic kettles (following the instructions
carefully), or citric acid crystals.
We recommend using citric acid
crystals (available from most pharmacies)
as follows,
1 Fill the kettle to the 1 litre mark, boil,
then unplug the kettle (remove the
cordless kettle from the base unit) and
stand it in an empty sink or bowl.
2 Remove the filter and drop it into
the water. This will allow the filter to
be descaled at the same time.
3 Add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the
water gradually, then leave the kettle
to stand. Do not use a more
concentrated solution.
4 As soon as the effervescence
subsides, empty the kettle and rinse it
thoroughly with cold water.
Take care to wash the filter thoroughly,
then replace back into its location slot
(see filter removal page 4).
IMPORTANT - never operate or boil
the kettle with the filter in the base of
the kettle, the hot element plate will
melt and damage the filter.
5 Wipe the outside of the kettle
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 kettle.
Cleaning
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
WARNING: Always disconnect the
plug from the mains and allow the kettle
to cool down before cleaning.
Wipe the outside of the kettle with a
damp cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive
cleaners on the outside of the kettle which
may scratch the surface.
