IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
• CAUTION: Do not touch the base or the
glass portions of the kettle while the kettle
is operating or immediately after operation.
These components get hot and may cause
burns or other personal injury.
• CAUTION: Do not fill the kettle above the
“MAX“ line. Doing so may cause the water to
boil over during operation and may result in
scalding.
• CAUTION: Always handle with care when
there is hot water inside the kettle. Failure to
do so may result in burns or scalding.
• Use the kettle with the specified voltage
(120V, 60Hz).
• Do not allow children to use or play with
this kettle. Always keep this kettle and its
components out of reach from children.
Supervise when children are nearby.
• Do not use the kettle if the kettle is
malfunctioning, if it is broken or chipped, or if
the power cord or plug is damaged in any way.
Immediately discontinue use and contact
Customer Support (see page 10).
• Always unplug the kettle when it is not being
used and before cleaning. This will prevent
moisture from causing a short circuit in the
power base while it is plugged in.
• Do not let the cord (or any extension cord)
hang over the edge of a table or counter. Do
not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces.
• Your kettle has a polarized plug (one prong
is wider than the other), which fits into a
polarized outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature to reduce the risk of electric shock. If
the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, do not use the plug in that outlet.
Do not bypass this safety feature.
• This kettle uses a short power-supply cord to
reduce the risk of entangling or tripping. Use
extension cords with care.
Always follow basic safety precautions when using your kettle. Read all instructions.
