BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Remove all packaging materials.
2. Check that all accessories are complete and the appliance is
not damaged.
3. Clean all parts to remove any dust or manufacturing residue.
4. If you are using the kettle for the first time, it is recommended
that you should clean your kettle before use by boiling the
Max capacity of water and then discarding the water twice.
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
NOTE: The maximum capacity of this kettle is 1.5L.
FILTER REMOVAL
1. Open the lid.
2. Lift the filter upwards from its holder.
3. To refit the filter, slide it into the side wall guides of the filter
holder until it clicks into place.
WARNING: Unless the filter is fitted correctly, the kettle lid may
not close and lock securely.
USING YOUR KETTLE
1. Wherever possible, fill through the spout, as this helps to free
the filter from limescale build-up. The integrated water level
indicator allows you to easily see the amount of water in the
kettle.
Always ensure that the level of water in the kettle is filled to at
least the minimum level shown on the water gauge.

2. Place the kettle on the base unit, ensuring the kettle locates
on to the 360° connector. The 360° connector allows the kettle
to be located at any position. Ideal for left and right handed
users and for convenient positioning on the worktop.
3. Plug in and switch on at the wall socket.
4. Switch the kettle on. The ‘power on’ light will illuminate.
5. Fast boil kettles perform differently, if your kettle is a fast boil
model, it may sound louder during boiling, and switch off
suddenly with no after noise - this is normal.
6. When the water boils the kettle will switch off automatically.
If you are using the kettle for the first time, pour away the
boiled water and refill.
7. Lift the kettle from the base unit by the handle ensuring you
hold the kettle level. To re-boil, switch ON again. If the kettle
has just switched off wait a minute or two before switching it
back on again. If you do not put in enough water, or switch on
the kettle 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.
USING YOUR KETTLE

WARNING: Always disconnect the plug from the mains and allow
the kettle to cool before cleaning.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the appliance do not use alkaline
cleaning agents when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild
detergent.
Wipe the outside with a damp cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outside of the
kettle which may scratch the surface.
CLEANING
1. Fill the kettle 3/4 full, boil, then unplug the kettle (remove the
cordless kettle from the base unit) and stand it in an empty sink
or bowl.
2. Add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the water gradually, then
leave the kettle to stand. Do not use a more concentrated
solution.
3. As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the kettle and
rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
4. Wipe the outside of the kettle 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 kettle.
IMPORTANT: As this kettle 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 kettle 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 kettles.
Alternatively use citric acid crystals (available from most
pharmacies) as follows.
