Operation Manual

Safety boil dry protection

The kettle is fitted with a safety device, which protects against overheating should the

appliance be operated with insufficient water. If this occurs the kettle will stop heating and

a continuous tone will sound, indicating a dry boil error has occurred.

The START/CANCEL and KEEP WARM button surrounds will also flash in red. Switch off

at the power outlet and allow kettle to cool down before refilling. The safety device will

automatically reset when the kettle has cooled sufficiently.

WARNING: This appliance is designed for boiling or heating of drinking quality water

only. Never use it to heat or boil any other liquids or foodstuffs. Never insert tea or coffee

into the kettle. The lid should always be locked securely into the closed position before use.

Care and cleaning

Always unplug the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.

CAUTION! To avoid damage, do not use any chemicals, disinfectants, steel wool, abrasive

cleaners or hard or sharp utensils to clean the appliance. Handle with care. Do not place

or immerse the kettle base, power base or power cord in any liquids. Do not spill any

liquids on the kettle base, switch area, power base or power cord. Do not place the kettle

or power base in an automatic dishwasher.

Removal of mineral deposits

Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the kettle interior and water window to discolour

over time. Mineral deposits may be removed by using a proprietary kettle descaler availa-

ble from most leading supermarkets, department stores and hardware stores.

Alternatively:

1. Fill the kettle until two-thirds full with 1 part vinegar and 2 parts water. Boil and allow to

stand overnight.

2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle with clean water, bring to boil and

discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will be ready for use.

Cleaning the kettle

The outside of the kettle should be wiped with a damp cloth then polished with a soft, dry

cloth.

NOTE: The filter could become damaged with time, so please check regularly and replace

if found damaged.

NOTE: Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or out-

side of the kettle.

WARNING: To prevent damage to the appliance, do not use alkaline cleaning agents

when cleaning. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent.
