Using
Filling the kettle
1
Wherever possible fill through the spout, as this helps to free the filter from limescale build-up.
The integrated water level indicator allows you to easily see the amount of water in the kettle.
Always ensure that the level of water in the kettle is filled to at least the minimum level shown on the water gauge. Should your kettle not have a water gauge, always ensure that the element is cover
ed.
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 the worktop.

If you are using the kettle for the first time, pour away the boiled w
ater and refill.
6 L
ift the kettle from the base unit by the handle ensuring you hold the k
ettle 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 kettle is fitted with a concealed element it must be descaled r
egularly. The
fr
equency of descaling depends on usage and the hardness of the water in your ar
ea.
Excessive scale can cause the kettle to switch off before boiling and may damage the element invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling takes place.
