2. Place kettle on Power Base (Fig. 3). Rotate
kettle as needed so the spout faces away from
you.
NOTE: Both Power Base and kettle can be
rotated by 360 degrees to allow the plug to
connect easily with the power outlet. Excess
cord length can be stored in the Power Base and
secured with cord storage hooks.

on the control panel will ash once with a“beep”
sound indicating the kettle is powered on. The

TEMPERATURE PRE-SETS
Dierent types of tea and tisanes have various optimal brewing temperatures to extract
maximum avor without scalding or burning the leaves. Brewing at a higher temperature than
recommended can result in a bitter avor. Your kettle has 6 pre-programmed settings, clearly
labeled with the temperature and type of beverage so you can easily steep the perfect cup of tea
or coee.

Be very careful when pouring water from the kettle as both the hot water
and steam can scald you. To avoid injury, do not open the lid or touch
the exterior of the kettle except for the cool-touch handle and control panel
