INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
- Before first use, fill the kettle with
clean water to maximum capacity and
boil. Discard the water and repeat.
- The kettle should always be unplugged
when filling or adding water.
- Fill the kettle with water to the desired
level. Do not overfill or there will be a
risk of spillage or spitting. The water
level indicator will assist you to measure
correct amount. You can fill the kettle
via the spout or after opening the lid.
Do not forget to close the lid after
filling, otherwise the kettle will not
automatically switch off after use.
Do not fill with less than 0.5 liter of
water. Do not fill with more than 1.8
liter of water (up to “MAX” indication).
An automatic safety cut-out has been
fitted for protection against overheating.
It will operate if the kettle is switched
on when containing insufficient water.
If the automatic safety cut-out has
operated, switch the kettle off,
disconnect form the power outlet and
allow the kettle to cool down for 5-10
minutes. Then refill with water and
switch on - the kettle will then boil and
cut off as in normal operation.
The kettle may be switched off at any
time by either pushing the switch of the
kettle to the “up” position or by
switching the power off at the power
outlet.
To pour water, lift the kettle from the
power base and pour.
CORDLESS KETTLE:
- Place the power base on a dry, flat
surface.
- Place the kettle on the power base.
The electrical connections will be made
automatically as the kettle slides onto
the power base.
- Plug the cord into an earthed power
socket and switch on by pressing the
switch of the kettle to the “down”
position.
- When the water has boiled, the kettle
will switch off automatically.
After allowing the kettle to cool down
for 30 seconds, the water can be
brought back to the boil by pushing the
switch back to the “down” position.
During the cooling down time do not
force the on/off switch into the “down”
(“ON”) position as this can damage the
operating mechanism.
- Do not remove the kettle from the
power-base without first switching off.
- The kettle may be switched off at any
time by either pushing the switch of the
kettle to the “up” position or by
switching the power off at the power
outlet.
- To pour water, lift the kettle from the
power base and pour.
HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR KETTLE
- Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a
soft, damp cloth or sponge. Remove
stubborn spots with a cloth moistened
with mild liquid detergent. Do not use
abrasive scouring pads or powders.
Never immerse the kettle in water or
other liquids. Since this kettle has
concealed heating element, is it
important to keep the bottom clean,
between the decalcification you may use
a washing-up brush or sponge.
- From time to time, depending on the
nature of your water supply, a limescale
deposit is naturally formed and can be
found mostly adhered to the heating
element and reduce the heating
capacity.
The amount of limescale deposited (and
subsequently the need to clean or
descale) largely depends on the water
hardness in your area and the frequency
with which the kettle is used.
- Limescale is not harmful to your
health. But if poured into your beverage
it can give a powdery taste to your
drink. Therefore, the kettle should be
descaled periodically as indicated below.
DESCALING:
Descale the kettle regularly with normal
use at least twice a year.
- Fill the kettle up to the “MAX” with a
mixture of one part acetic acid and two
parts water. Switch on and wait for the
appliance to switch off automatically.
- Let the mixture remain inside the
kettle overnight.
- Throw the mixture away the next
morning.
- Fill the kettle with clean water up
to〝MAX〞and boil again.
- Discard this boiled water to remove
any remaining scale and vinegar.
- Rinse the inside of the kettle with
clean water.
THE WARRANTY DO NOT COVER

observed.
- If the appliance has not been properly
maintained, if force has been used
against it or if it has been damaged in
any other way.

WARNING
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
