USING YOUR APPLIANCE
1. Open the lid by pressing the lid opening button on the handle; fill with the
desired amount of water to the water 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.
2. Connect the plug into a power outlet. Press the switch downwards on the
handle. Light inside the water kettle will light up. Then start to boil the water.
The kettle will switch off automatically once the water has boiled. You can
shut off the power by pressing the switch upwards at any moment during
boiling water.
3. Take the plug out of the outlet. Lift the kettle then pour the water.
4. The kettle will not re-boil until the switch is pressed downwards.
Allow to cool for 30~40 seconds before reopening to boil water.
5. Should you accidentally allow the kettle to operate without water; the boil-
dry protection will automatically switch it off. If this occurs, allow the kettle
to cool before filling with cold water and re-boiling.
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. This water kettle is equipped with an overfill safety
feature. This will make sure that in case of overfilling the kettle the water will
not come in contact with electrical components of the kettle ensuring no unsafe
situations can occur. In case of overfill the water will be lead through the inner
side of the kettle and will exit the kettle at the bottom, away from the electrical
element.
NOTE: Ensure that switch is clear off obstructions and the lid is firmly closed.
The kettle will not turn off if the switch is constrained.
NOTE: operate carefully when pouring the water from your kettle as boiling
water will scald.
