BEFORE USING THE KETTLE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Remove all the packaging from the kettle and its power base.
Before first use, fill the kettle to MAX, boil, discard the water, and then rinse the inside of
the kettle. Do this three times, to clean thoroughly.
Position the kettle as close to the wall socket as possible. Wind any excess cord around the
cord storage area underneath the power base. Guide the cord length you require through
the gap in the base.

HINTS AND TIPS
• Only use this kettle to heat water.
• Only heat the amount of water you need to use.
• Clean and descale regularly even in soft water areas.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1. Plug the base into the socket and switch on. Take the kettle off the base, open the lid
and fill the kettle through the lid opening, not the spout.
2. Do not fill the kettle beyond the maximum level. Do not use the kettle without at least
2 cups of water in it.
3. Press the ON/OFF switch down, the indicator light will show your water is heating.
4. When the kettle has boiled, the switch will click up and the light will switch off.
5. If the kettle is lifted from the base while operating, it will automatically switch off.
SAFETY CUT-OUT: The heating element in your kettle is protected against damage by
a safety cut-out device which will automatically switch the kettle off if it is accidently
switched on and allowed to boil without any water. If this occurs, disconnect the kettle
from the mains supply and allow the kettle to cool before filling with cold water. The
kettle may then be operated normally.
OPENING THE LID
• Remove the kettle from the
power base.
• Holding the handle of the kettle firmly
with one hand, hold the pull on the
lid with the other, pull up and towards
the handle to open.
WARNING: The kettle will be hot
to touch when it is heating and for
some time after it is has boiled. Avoid
touching it and use the handle and lid
pull to open. Steam will escape
as soon as the lid is opened.

Problem Possible cause Solution
The kettle won’t light up when
switched on.
Not switched on at plug or not
securely on the base.
Check the power is switched on
and that kettle is on the base
properly.
The kettle does not switch off. The lid is not securely closed. Ensure the lid is properly closed.
The water is cloudy. Some drinking water has limescale
which goes cloudy when being
boiled.
This is perfectly normal.
Drinks made with water from the
kettle leave a scum in the cups.
The kettle may need descaling. Follow the descaling instructions in
this manual.
The kettle spits water when it boils. The kettle has been overfilled. Make sure you only fill with water
up to the MAX level.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Following are some common problems that can occur when using the kettle. Please
review the problems, their possible cause and any corrective action that should be taken.

CARE AND CLEANING
• Unplug the kettle, take it off the base and allow it to cool completely before cleaning
and storing.
• Periodically check all parts before use.
• Never immerse the kettle, base or cable in water or any other liquid.
• Wipe the kettle, inside and out, with a damp soft cloth. You may use a little mild
detergent, but if you do, rinse well with clean water to avoid tainting when kettle
next used.
• Don’t use harsh or abrasive, or alkaline cleaning agents or solvents.
• Ensure that connectors and sockets are kept dry.
WATER FILTER
The internal filter inside the spout can be pulled out to allow it to be cleaned.
WARNING: Do not operate the kettle without the water filter.
• Make sure hands are clean.
• Remove the kettle from the power base and ensure it is cold.
• Open the lid. Hold the top of the filter, pull up and out of the kettle. Rinse under
running water while brushing it with a soft brush. Rinse the kettle out with
fresh water.
• Insert the filter into the slots inside the spout and push it back into place.
10
DESCALING
• Limescale may be white, coloured, even rusty-looking, but it’s normally visible on the
walls and floor of the kettle. Phosphate scale isn’t generally visible, but it’s there, even in
soft water areas.
• All scale causes overheating, and reduces the kettle’s life.
• Even with soft water, descale regularly, to help keep your kettle in working order. Use a
descaler suitable for plastic products (all kettles have plastic parts).
• When descaling has finished, rinse and boil the kettle several times, discard
the water.
• Store the kettle with the power cable loosely coiled or stored in the base. Never wrap it
tightly around the base or kettle.
MINIMISING SCALE
• Empty the kettle after each use; do not allow water to stand in the kettle overnight.
• Use filtered water instead of tap water.
• Descale the kettle regularly, at least once a month. In areas of very hard water descaling
you may need to do this more often.
