UNPACKING
Remove all packaging from the unit. Retain the packaging. If you dispose of it

Do not insert any foreign objects or allow any liquid to spill into the Power
Connector Hole.
The kettle stand comes packaged inside the kettle. Grip the lid recess and
kettle rmly. Pull on the lid recess to open the lid. Remove the kettle stand
and place it on a rm, stable and dry work surface.
The kettle is only to be
used with the stand
provided.
Ensure the kettle is cool before removing the lter.
If the kettle is overlled, boiling
water may be ejected from the
spout and cause scalding.
• Never open the lid while the water is
boiling. The steam coming out from the
kettle is very hot.
• If there is insufficient water in the kettle,
the automatic safety cut-out will operate.
If this happens, pull the power switch up
to the OFF position and allow the kettle to
cool for 10 minutes before relling with
cold water and re-boiling.

and the lid is rmly closed. The kettle
will not turn o if the switch is
obstructed or if the lid is open.
• After removing the kettle, there may be
some water on the surface of the stand.
This is condensation from the steam
that causes the kettle to automatically
switch off after boiling. This is normal
and should not be a cause for alarm.

SWITCHING ON
The indicator in the power switch of the kettle will light up orange to indicate
that the kettle is heating.
CLEANING THE KETTLE
The kettle exterior should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or scouring pads which may damage the nish of the kettle.
Never immerse the kettle or the stand in water and always keep the electrical
contacts dry. Always disconnect from the mains before cleaning the stand.
DESCALING THE KETTLE
Depending on the hardness of the water in
your area, limescale may be deposited on the
heating element and the inside of the kettle.
This normal build-up is not harmful to health
but an excessive amount of scale may affect
the performance of the kettle.
To descale, ll the kettle with distilled water
up to three-quarters of the Max level and
bring the water to boil. After the kettle has
switched o, add a descaling solution
following the manufacturers instructions.
Never attempt to descale the kettle by
chipping or scraping with a sharp implement.
To prevent loose particles of limescale being
poured into your beverage, your kettle is tted
with a scale lter. You may remove the lter and
t it back in after cleaning.
1. To remove the lter, open the lid.
2. Grip the lter’s lip rmly and pull upwards. If
one side comes free rst, gently but rmly pull
the other side free.
3. To t the lter, open the lid.
4. Slot the lter into the grooves inside the spout.
5. Snap (gently) into place.
