WARNING: TOO LITTLE WATER MAY DAMAGE THE HEATING
ELEMENT AND OVERFILLING MAY CAUSE THE BOILING WATER TO BE
EJECTED.
WARNING: TAKE CARE WHEN MOVING THE URN AS THE WORK
SURFACE MAY BE SUBJECT TO RESIDUAL HEAT AFTER USE.
Place the unit on a dry, level and heat-resistant surface, away from the edge of the work surface.
Do not use the unit on the floor.
For first time use, it is recommended that you fill the urn to the maximum level mark with fresh tap
water, then boil and empty. Repeat this process at least two times to clear the urn of any dust or
materials from the manufacturing process. Do not drink this water.
1. Open lid and fill with water, ensuring you do not exceed the maximum level.
2. Ensure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging the power plug into the socket.
3. Replace the lid and switch the unit on. The BOIL indicator light will illuminate and the water
will become hot, and begin to boil.
4. The BOIL indicator light will turn off once the water is boiled and the KEEP WARM indicator
light will illuminate. This indicates that the urn is now preserving heat.
5. The urn will continue to switch on/off as required, to maintain the water temperature.
6. After use, please ensure you switch off and unplug the unit.
This unit is fitted with an automatic shut-down feature, which serves as a boil-dry
protection device. It will automatically shut-down once it detects no water inside the urn. If
this feature has activated, press the reset button at the base of the unit to restart the
appliance.
