IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Follow basic safety precautions, including:

Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children unless
they are older than 8 and supervised.
Keep the appliance and cable out of reach of children under 8.
h The surfaces of the appliance will get hot.
If you overfill, the kettle may spit boiling water.
Use the kettle only with the stand supplied (and vice versa).
If the cable is damaged, return the appliance, to avoid hazard.

• Keep the kettle, stand, and cable away from the edges of worktops.

BRITA® MAXTRA FILTER CARTRIDGE
The filter cartridge contains ion exchange resin and activated carbon.
Reduces limescale and substances, eg. chlorine, that affect taste and odour.
Reducing the impurities makes the water look and taste better, and the reduction in
limescale helps your kettle too.
Remember – water is a food, it goes off. Use filtered water within one day.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Open the lid.
• Remove the filter cartridge from inside the kettle, and jump to step 3 below.

PREPARING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
You can find more information about BRITA® filter cartridges and the BRITA® Memo in
the BRITA® Information Guide supplied with the kettle.
1. Open the lid.
2. To remove a used filter cartridge, hold the funnel firmly with one hand, grip the
ring-pull with the other hand, and pull the filter cartridge up and out.
3. Remove all packaging from the new filter cartridge.
4. Don’t worry if the inside of the packaging is damp – it’s just condensation.
5. There might be black carbon particles in the packaging or on the filter cartridge.
Don’t worry, they’re harmless.
6. To ensure efficient operation, all air must be removed from the filter cartridge.
7. Submerge the filter cartridge in a bowl of cold water and shake it gently till no more
bubbles are released.
8. You may notice some black carbon particles floating in the water. Again, don’t
worry, they’re harmless.
9. Before first use, you must flush the filter cartridge.
10. Push the filter cartridge into the funnel till it won’t go any further.
11. Fill the funnel. Fill it again when it empties. This should fill the kettle to about the
max mark.
12. Discard the water, and repeat the operation.
13. When you’ve discarded two lots of water, the filter cartridge is ready for use.
RESET THE BRITA® MEMO
This shows what proportion of the filter cartridge’s 4 week life is left.
1. Press and hold the START button till all 4 bars appear and flash twice, then let go.
2. Every week, one bar will disappear.
3. When all 4 bars disappear, a flashing arrow will appear at the top of the display. This
means it’s time to replace the filter cartridge.
4. When the display gets down to one bar, it’s a good idea to check that you’ve got
another filter cartridge available. If you haven’t, it’s time to buy some.
5. The flashing dot at the bottom right of the display shows that the Memo is working.
HOLIDAYS
If you haven’t used the kettle for a few days:
• empty the kettle and rinse it out
• flush the filter cartridge (see points 10-13)
FILLING
1. Open the lid.
2. Fill with at least 2 cups of water, but not above max.
3. Fill the funnel quickly.
4. Fill it again when it empties.
5. This should fill the kettle to about the max mark.
6. If the water level is above the max mark, pour some water out of the kettle.
7. Close the lid, and press down to lock it.

SWITCHING ON
1. Put the stand on a stable, level surface.
2. Plug the stand into the wall socket.
3. Put the kettle on the stand.
4. Move the switch to I. The light will come on, and the kettle will heat up.
SWITCHING OFF
When the water boils the kettle will switch off and the light will go out.
To switch off manually, move the switch to O.
GENERAL
When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. Don’t worry – it’s the
steam used to switch off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents
under the kettle.
You may see some discolouration on the floor of the kettle. Again, don’t worry – it’s due
to the bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
USING WITH INSUFFICIENT WATER
This will shorten the life of the element. A boil-dry cut-out will switch the kettle off.
You must then remove the kettle from its stand to reset the cut-out.
Sit the kettle on the work surface till it’s cold.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Unplug the stand, and let the kettle cool before cleaning.
Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.
THE FUNNEL
1. Open the lid.
2. Put your thumbs inside the funnel.
3. Gently press one thumb against either side of the funnel and lift it out of the kettle.
DISPOSAL
The appliance contains a battery, which must be removed from the appliance, and
recycled, or disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.
Put the end of a screwdriver in the notch above the Memo, and prise it out of the lid.
Your local authority will have arrangements for recycling or disposing of the BRITA®
Memo.
