OPERATING THE
APPLIANCE
1Wherever possible fill through the
spout, as this helps to free the filter
from limescale build-up.
• If your kettle has a viewing window,
you can easily see the amount of
water in the kettle.
• If no viewing window, open the lid to
see the water level. Do not fill above
the maximum marker inside the kettle.
• Ensure that you put the minimum
requirement of water in the kettle, 1
cup 25cls.
• Boil only as much water as you need
as this saves electricity.
2Place the appliance on the base unit,
ensuring the appliance locates on to
the 360˚ connector.
• The 360˚ connector allows the
appliance to be located at any
position. - ideal for left and right
handed users and convenient
positioning on worktop.
3Plug in and switch on at the wall
socket.
4Switch the appliance on.
5When the water boils the appliance
will switch off automatically.
• If you are using the appliance for the
first time, pour away the boiled water
and refill.
6Lift the appliance from the base unit
by the handle ensuring you hold the
appliance level.
• To re-boil, switch to ON again. If the
appliance has just switched off wait a
minute or so before switching it back
on again.
• If you do not put in enough water, or
switch on the appliance when it is
empty, the safety cut-out will switch off
the power automatically. If this
happens, refill and wait a few minutes
for the element to cool, then use as
normal.
FILTER REMOVAL
1Open the lid.
2Lift the filter upwards from the location
using the tab provided.
3To refit the filter, slot it into the side wall
guides and press down firmly. Ensure

DESCALING
IMPORTANT: As this appliance is fitted
with a concealed element it must be
descaled regularly. The frequency of
descaling depends on usage and the
hardness of the water in your area.
Excessive scale can cause the
appliance to switch off before boiling
and may damage the element
invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling
takes place.
Remove hard scale using a proprietary
descaling product suitable for stainless
steel,glass or plastic.
For stainless steel kettles please follow
the instructions carefully.
Alternatively use citric acid crystals
(available from most pharmacies) as
follows:
1Fill the appliance 3/4 full, boil, then
unplug the appliance (remove the
cordless kettle from the base unit) and
stand it in an empty sink or bowl.
2Add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the
water gradually, then leave the kettle
to stand. Do not use a more
concentrated solution.
3As soon as the effervescence
subsides, empty the appliance and
rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
4Wipe the outside of the appliance
thoroughly with a damp cloth to
remove all traces of acid which may
damage the finish.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the electrical
connections are completely dry before
using the appliance.
