C GENERAL
28 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.
29 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.
b Use the °F°C button to swap between Fahrenheit and Centigrade on the display.
F USING WITH INSUFFICIENT WATER
30 This will shorten the life of the element. A boil-dry cut-out will switch the kettle off.
31 You must then remove the kettle from its stand to reset the cut-out.
32 Sit the kettle on the work surface till it’s cold.
