GREAT BRITISH DESIGN, INNOVATION
AND EXCELLENCE SINCE 1912
Since the turn of the 20th century, Tower has been designing,
developing and manufacturing housewares and small
appliances used by millions of households throughout the
UK and beyond. During the 1960s, the rise in popularity
of pressure cooking saw Tower become the UK’s largest
producer of pressure cookers, right through into the late
1980s. In recent years the Tower brand has been reborn with
an exciting and varied range of housewares and electrical
appliances that have quickly reinstated the brand’s richly
deserved status as a household name.

1. Remove the parts from the packaging.
2. Clean your kettle by going through several boiling cycles, using clean water
with each cycle and filling the kettle to its upper marking. The water will
reach boiling point after approximately 5 minutes. The kettle switches off
automatically.
3. Discard the boiled water. Wait for the kettle to cool, then rinse it with cold
water.
4. Your appliance is now ready for normal use.
5. Dispose of the packaging in a responsible manner.
1. Fill the kettle using either the spout or lid. Open the lid by pressing the
corresponding button at the top of the unit’s handle.
2. The water level must be between the MAX and MIN fill lines.
3. Check that the lid is closed correctly.
4. Ensure that the base unit and the base of your kettle are not wet.
5. Place the kettle onto the base unit and plug it in.
6. Switch the kettle on by pushing the On/Off switch located underneath the
handle to the On position. The indicator light inside the switch will illuminate
to indicate the kettle is turned on.
Note: The ON/OFF switch will also automatically return to the OFF position when
it is finished boiling.

7. Your kettle will begin to boil and will switch off automatically when it is done.

and boiling.
