Safety instructions
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using.
• Before connecting the kettle to the power supply, check that the
voltage indicated on the appliance (underside the kettle & base)
corresponds with the voltage in your home. If this is not the case,
contact your dealer and stop using the kettle.

touch a hot surface.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a
heated oven.
• Do not operate the appliance without anything in it to avoid
damaging the heat elements.
• Ensure that the kettle is used on a firm and flat surface out of
reach of children, this will prevent the kettle from overturning and
avoid damage or injury.
• To protect against a fire, electric shock or personal injury, do not
immerse cord, electric plugs or kettle in water or other liquids.
• While water is boiling, or just after the water has been boiled,
avoid contacting with steam from the spout.

tipping the kettle too fast.

First use
1. To fill water into the kettle, remove it from the power base and open the lid by
lifting the lid handle, fill with the desired amount of water to the kettle. Always
fill the kettle between the minimum (0.5L) and maximum (1.7L) marks. Too little
water will result in the kettle switching off before the water has boiled.
NOTE: Do not fill the water over the maximum level, as water may spill out of
the spout when boiling. Ensure that the lid is firmly in place before connecting
the power cord to the outlet.
2. Close the lid. Position the kettle on the power base. Make sure the kettle
contact is on the power base completely.
3. Connect the plug into a power outlet. Press down the switch to “I” position
and the switch light illuminates. Then start to boil the water. The kettle
will switch off automatically once the water has boiled and the switch light
extinguishes. You can shut off the power by pressing the switch at any moment
during boiling water.
NOTE: Ensure that switch is clear of obstructions and the lid is firmly closed.
The kettle will not turn off if the switch is constrained or if the lid is left open.
4. Lift the kettle from the power base and then pour the water.
NOTE: Operate carefully when pouring the water from your kettle as boiling
water may result in scald, besides, don’t open the lid while the water in the
kettle is hot.
5. The kettle will not re-boil until the switch is uplifted. Allow to cool for 15~20
seconds before reopening to boil water. The kettle may be stored on the power
base when not in use.
NOTE: Ensure power supply is turned off when kettle is not in use.

Dry Boil Protection
Cleaning & Storage
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to operate without water, the dry boil
protection will automatically switch it off. If this should occur, allow the kettle to
cool before filling with cold water and re-boiling.
Always disconnect the appliance from the power outlet and leave it to cool down
completely before cleaning.
Never immerse the kettle or cord in water, or allow moisture to contact with these
parts.
Removal of mineral deposits
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the kettle interior to discolour .To remove
this build-up, use non-toxic Liquid De-scaler.
Alternatively:
1. Fill the kettle with 3 cups of white vinegar and the remainder of water and allow
to stand overnight. Do not boil.
2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Any stains remaining inside the spout can
be removed by rubbing with a damp cloth, fill the kettle with clean water,
bring to boil and then discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will then be
ready to use.

CAUTION: Do not use chemical, steel, wooden or abrasive cleaners to clean the
