USING YOUR KETTLE
1. Put the stand on a stable, level surface.
2. Plug the stand into the wall socket.
3. Put the kettle on the stand.
4. Move the switch to I.
5. The light will come on and the kettle will start to heat up.
6. When the water boils the kettle will switch off.
7. To switch off manually, move the switch to O, or simply lift the kettle off the stand.
GENERAL
Note: When you lift your kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. This is normal and is caused
by the steam used to switch your kettle off automatically.
BOIL DRY PROTECTION
If your kettle boils dry, a safety cut-out device will automatically switch it off. If this happens,
unplug your kettle and allow it to cool down until the cut-out resets itself. Allowing your kettle
to boil dry will shorten the life of the element.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Unplug the stand and let the kettle cool before cleaning.
2. Wipe all surfaces with a clean damp cloth.
3. Open the lid.
4. Put a finger into the spout, and press on the centre of the filter to push it into the body of
the kettle.
5. Lift or tip it out of the kettle.
6. Rinse the filter under a running tap while brushing with a soft brush.
7. Fit the bottom of the filter into the guides at the bottom of the spout.
8. From inside the kettle, press the filter into the spout
9. Close the lid.
Descale regularly, (at least monthly).
Use a proprietary descaler. Follow the instructions accompanying the descaler.
Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
