or attempt to cook any food in this appliance.

Clean your electric kettle before first use
1. Wash the inside of the kettle and lid with mild detergent and water. Rinse each
thoroughly. Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or any other liquid.
These items are not dishwasher safe.
2. Fill the electric kettle with fresh water to the “MAX” water level mark. Plug power
base into power outlet. Place kettle into power base. Turn the switch ON by
pressing down on ON/OFF switch. ON/OFF light will turn on indicating kettle is ON.

Let the water boil.
3. When the water and unit have cooled, discard the water. Rinse with cold water
and repeat.
4. Your electric kettle is now ready for use.
Using your Electric Kettle
1. Position the power base on a flat, heat resistant surface, as close as possible to
a power outlet.
2. Follow cord routing in power base according to exit patterns. Proper cord routing
will result in the power base laying flat when kettle is placed in base. DO not
operate kettle if power base is not flat. If power base is not flat, remove kettle from
power base and repeat cord placement instructions.
3. To fill with water, remove the lid. Fill the electric kettle with water to below the
“MAX” water level mark. NOTE: Do not exceed the “MAX” water level mark
indicated on the electric kettle.
4. Plug the electric cord into an electric outlet. Turn the switch ON by pushing
down on the on/off switch. The indicator light will light to indicate the unit is on. The
water will heat and the electric kettle will switch off automatically when the water
boils. NOTE: Ensure the ON/OFF switch is clear of obstructions and the lid is firmly
closed. The electric kettle will not turn off automatically if the ON/OFF switch is
constrained, or if the lid is left open.
5. Carefully lift the kettle from the power base and pour the hot water.
6. The kettle will not re-boil until the on/off switch is again switched ON. Wait 25
seconds, allowing kettle to cool down, then switch ON.
IF THE KETTLE DOES BOIL DRY
If the kettle is operated in accordance with instructions for use, it is unlikely that the
kettle will boil dry. However, in the event that the kettle does boil dry, it is protected by
a boil dry, fail-safe device which will switch the kettle off automatically on sensing a
boil dry situation and keep it switched off until the kettle is refilled with at least the
minimum amount of water. Always allow the kettle to cool for half an hour before
reuse if the kettle has boiled dry.
Care and cleaning of your electric kettle

1. Mineral deposits in tap water may cause scale deposits to form inside the electric
kettle after frequent use. To remove this scale build-up, fill the kettle with a solution
of 3 cups of white vinegar and 3 cups water. Let sit overnight.
2. Empty the vinegar solution from the electric kettle. Remove any stain remaining
inside by rubbing with a damp cloth.
3. Fill the electric kettle with clean water. Place kettle on power base and bring to a
boil, then discard water. Repeat and the electric kettle will be ready to use.
4. The electric kettle will not operate again until the on/off switch is pressed
downward.
5. Always remove kettle from power base and disconnect power base from electrical
outlet before cleaning. Do not immerse kettle or power base in water or other
liquid.
6. The outside of the electric kettle can be wiped with a soft damp cloth.
NOTE: Never use any chemical, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean any
part of the kettle, including the power base.
