ADJUSTABLE TEMPERATURE POUR-OVER KETTLE
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Find balance
Pour-over coffee is a labor of love. It requires precision and
patience to get it just right, but the result is hand-crafted
coffee just the way you like it. At OXO, we love pour-over
coffee, but felt the process could be a bit easier (especially
for that rst cup of the day). That’s why our Adjustable
Temperature Pour-Over Kettle lets you select your exact
water temperature and times the process without a separate
tool. We carefully considered the design of the handle and
weight of the Kettle for a balanced feel while pouring, plus
the gooseneck spout with curved opening provides precision
and control. This Kettle ensures your coffee is the way you
like it every time.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance is
equipped with a power cord that has a grounding wire
with grounding plug. The appliance must be grounded
using a 3-hole properly grounded outlet. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock. If the power outlet is a standard 2-prong
wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
outlet. Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from power cord or use adaptor.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not plug
this appliance into an outlet with a voltage other than
specified on the bottom of Kettle.
SHORT CORD STATEMENT
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected
to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping
over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an
approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the
rating of this appliance.
Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that
it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or tripped over. To avoid an
electrical circuit overload, do not use any high wattage
appliance on the same circuit as this appliance.

the “keep-warm” function begins
automatically and will hold the water
temperature steady for 30 minutes.
NOTE: Boiling point depends on altitude; at higher elevations,
water boils at lower temperatures. If you live above sea level,
keep in mind you may not be able to reach 212°F/100°C
WARNING: If Kettle is filled to the max line and you select
212°F/100°C while you live at high altitude, hot water may splash out
of the spout when trying to reach temperature

The Particulars of Boiling Water
7. If you remove Kettle during the “keep-
warm” period, return the Kettle to the
base within 60 seconds to continue
keeping the water at your selected
temperature, otherwise the “keep-
warm” function will automatically be
canceled.
8. When ready, lift Kettle from base and
pour slowly to prevent water coming
out of the lid. The handle and bottom
of the Kettle are designed to stay cool
after boiling to protect your hands,
and the insulated bottom allows you to
place the Kettle on any surface when
you’re done pouring.
NOTE: Unless canceled, water will be held at your selected
temperature for 30 minutes in the “keep-warm” function. After
30 minutes, your Kettle will automatically turn off.
CAUTION: Do not put empty Kettle back on base when in “keep-
warm” mode. Be sure to turn Kettle off before returning empty
Kettle to base.
Count-Up Timer Mode
When the Kettle has reached the desired
temperature it will go into keep-warm mode.
To help keep track of your pour-over
process without the need for an additional
timer, the OXO On Pour-Over Kettle
features an integrated count-up timer.
1. To enter Timer Mode, press and hold
the OXO button for 1 second. The
“0:00” clock icon will appear and timer
will start.
2. Once in Timer Mode, the count-up timer
will start. The timer will continue to run
until you press the OXO button to stop
the timer. Once the timer is stopped it
will automatically return to keep-warm
mode. To ensure optimum pour-over
coffee extraction, the coffee grounds
should be in contact with 195-205°F
water for 3-4 minutes.
NOTE: The timer max is 10 minutes.
3. When in keep-warm mode, simply press
the OXO button to turn off the Kettle
CAUTION: The Kettle appliance is very hot during use. Do not
touch Kettle surface. Beware of burns! Use the handle for liftng,
carrying and pouring. If you need extra support, use an oven mitt.

power cord and empty excess water
from the Kettle. Use the cord wrap
under the base for tidy storage.
NOTE: The Kettle is designed to remember your last temperature
setting
WARNING: Do not open the lid during and after operation. This
may result in hot or boiling water splashing from the Kettle. Pour
all hot water from the Kettle before opening the lid to refill.
Safety Boil Dry Protection
• The Kettle is tted with a safety device
which protects against overheating
should the appliance be operated with
insufcient water. If this occurs, the
Kettle will stop heating.
• Allow Kettle to cool for approximately
20 minutes before relling. The safety
device will automatically reset when the
Kettle has sufciently cooled.
WARNING: This appliance is designed for boiling and heating
drinking-quality water only. The lid should always be locked
securely into the closed position before use.

Troubleshooting Descaling
YOUR KETTLE WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY IF IT IS NOT DESCALED REGULARLY.
The warranty is voided if descaling is not carried out in accordance with these instructions.
Scale is a naturally occurring buildup of mineral deposits caused by impurities in water
or use of hard water. The ideal descaling cycle depends on water hardness. Descale the
Kettle every 60 uses. Regular descaling can also increase the service life of the Kettle,
allowing it to boil water faster with less energy.
1. Fill Kettle with water to about 2/3 of
the max line.
2. Bring solution to a boil.
3. Add descaling solution to ll Kettle
to max line. (Descaling solution is
available where household cleaning
products are sold. We recommend
using OXO On Descaling Solution,
available at OXO.com and major
retailers that sell OXO On products.
Follow the recommended use for
solution to water ratio.)
4. Let sit for 15 minutes. Discard solution.
5. Rinse Kettle with fresh water. Let dry
thoroughly.
You have questions, we have answers. For more information, call OXO Customer Service

The Kettle will be able to turn on again in a few minutes,
after it cools back down to a safe temperature.
Question/Problem Explanation/Solution
Your Kettle might need to be descaled. See pg. 12 for
descaling instructions.
Check your altitude; your boiling point may be lower
than 212°F. The Kettle cannot reach temperatures higher
than your altitude’s boiling point.
