Functions
VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The electronic control panel offers four different
settings for optimal tea and coffee brewing:
Green
Tea
Oolong
Tea
Coffee Boil /
Black
Tea
80°C 90°C 95°C 100°C
NOTE
This product is not calibrated for commercial or
scientific use. Temperatures may vary +/-3 °C
degrees, being within range for optimal brewing
for each type of tea or coffee.
OPTIMAL BREWING
Tea varieties are grown and produced in many
different environments and require different
water temperatures to allow their unique flavour
and aroma to develop during brewing. To
bring out the optimal quality and taste of more
delicate tea leaves, a lower temperature will
produce a better flavoured cup of tea.
For example, steeping green or oolong teas
in boiling water may scald the tea leaves and
result in a bitter, astringent brew. Brewing
the tea for too long may also result in a bitter,
unpleasant taste; while brewing for too short a
period may leave the tea bland. For best results
always follow the specific directions on the tea/
coffee packet. To bring out the optimal taste
and quality of your favourite tea or coffee,
we recommend that you use your Breville
MultiTemp™ Kettle and the corresponding
temperature.
KEEP WARM FUNCTION
The Breville MultiTemp™ Kettle offers a
convenient KEEP WARM function that can
be used before, during or on completion of
the water heating cycle. When the water has
reached the selected Celsius temperature, the
KEEP WARM function will hold the selected
temperature for 20 minutes. If the 100° button is
selected when using the KEEP WARM function,
the boiled water will remain at approximately
95° Celsius for 20 minutes.
To activate the KEEP WARM function, first
press the desired water temperature button
from the four options on the control panel,
then press the KEEP WARM button, followed
by the START/CANCEL button to commence
heating the water. Alternatively, the KEEP
WARM button can be activated at any time
during the heating cycle and/or within one
minute after the heating cycle has completed.
If the kettle is removed from the power base
during the KEEP WARM function, the kettle will
automatically switch off.
NOTE
If the temperature setting is changed to
a higher setting during the KEEP WARM
function, the START/CANCEL button
surround will illuminate in red and heating
will start automatically. If the KEEP WARM
function is not selected within one minute
after the heating cycle has completed, the
boiling process will need to start again.

discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will
be ready for use.
TO CLEAN THE EXTERIOR
The exterior of the kettle and power base
should be wiped with a damp cloth then
polished with a soft, dry cloth.
NOTE
Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or abrasive
cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the
