IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed :
1. Read all instructions. When reading, please refer to the page of
illustrations to relate the pictures and text. The appliance should be
used strictly in accordance with these instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To prevent fire, electric shock and injury, do not immerse cord, plugs,
base or kettle in water or other liquids.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children. Please use and keep the kettle and its supply cord out of the
reach of children. Warn other users, especially children, of the possible
dangers (eg. escaping steam, hot water, hot lid, etc).
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the
appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance which has been damaged in any way or
has a defective cord or plug. Return it to the nearest authorized service
center for examination, repair or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch
hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated
oven.
14. Do not place the base of your kettle in a metal tray. If water spills
over into the tray, and a build-up occurs, it could become dangerous
to touch.
15. Position the kettle to the rear of work surfaces to prevent over-
hanging of the power cord. Water can remain hot for a
considerable time after boiling and can present a scald hazard.
16. Before pouring, wait until the kettle has stopped boiling and
then pour steadily. If the kettle is tipped too much, the lid may
fall off or open.

17. WARNING :a cordless kettle must never be filled on its base.
18. An electrical appliance should not be used if it has been drop-
ped at any time. In such cases, please contact your authorized
T-Fal service center.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
A. A short power cord or a detachable power cord is provided to
reduce the risks of resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord accidentally.
B. Longer detachable power cords or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
C. If a long detachable power cord or an extension cord is used :
1) the marked electrical rating of the detachable power cord or
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or table where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
USA ONLY
The appliance may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended
to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
