IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Always follow basic safety precautions when using your kettle.
Read all instructions.
• Do not immerse the kettle, base, cord, or plug
in water or other liquids.
• Closely supervise children near the kettle.
Do not allow children to use or play with this
kettle.
• Unplug the kettle when it is not being used
and before cleaning. This will avoid electric
shock and prevent moisture from causing
a short circuit in the power base while it is
plugged in.
• Allow to cool before putting on or taking o
parts, and before cleaning.
• Do not use the kettle if it is malfunctioning,
broken or chipped, or if the power cord or plug
is damaged in any way. Do not try to repair
the kettle. Contact Customer Support (see
page 10).
• Using accessory attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer may
result in fire, electric shock, or injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Place the kettle on a dry, flat surface. Do not
place the kettle on or near heat sources such
as stovetops, ovens, radiators, etc.

INSTRUCTIONS
Plug & Cord
• 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.
• This kettle has a 3-prong grounding plug.
Always plug in to a grounded electrical outlet.
Do not modify the plug in any way.
• This kettle uses a short power-supply cord to
reduce the risk of entangling or tripping. Use
extension cords with care.
• Any extension cord must also be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord.
• The marked electrical rating of an extension
cord should be at least as high as the rating of
the kettle (see page 3).
• Always make sure the lid is closed while the
kettle is operating. Do not cover the spout
opening while the kettle is operating. Do not
cover the slits near the On/O Switch.
• To disconnect, use the On/O Switch to turn
the kettle o, then remove the plug from the
wall outlet.
• Only use the kettle as directed in this manual.
• Household use only.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.
Do not touch the base or glass parts of
the kettle during or immediately after
operation.
• Do not fill the kettle above the “MAX“
line. This may cause water to boil over
and may cause scalding.
• Always handle with care when there
is hot water inside the kettle to avoid
scalding.
CAUTION!

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Descaling the Kettle
1. Unplug the kettle and allow it to cool
before cleaning.
2. Wipe the kettle and base with a soft,
damp cloth. Make sure that the electric
socket on the underside of the kettle is
kept dry.
3. Dry all parts after every use.
You should descale the kettle at least once
a week if you use it frequently. Descaling
removes any mineral deposits that have
built up inside the kettle. Always descale
the kettle before and after storing for long
periods of time.
1. Unplug the kettle and pour out all
water. Make sure the kettle is cool.
2. Squeeze half a lemon into the kettle,
or add ½ US cup / 118 mL of distilled
vinegar into the kettle.
3. If the kettle has thick scale buildup,
scrub the kettle’s inner walls with a
non-scratch scrub sponge.
4. Add 2 US cups / 473 mL of water. Boil
the mixture.
5. Pour out the mixture, then wipe o any
remaining scale with a non-abrasive
cloth, sponge, or cleaning brush.
6. Repeat as needed.
Note:
Never immerse kettle or power base in
water.
Note: For quick descaling, add 3 US tbsp / 44 mL
of baking soda to ½ US cup / 118 mL of vinegar
into the kettle. Swirl the mixture around until it
coats the walls of the kettle, wipe with a non-
scratch sponge, and pour the mixture out. This
method will only work for a thin layer of scale.
Note: Do not use steel wool, as this can scratch
the kettle.
