OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING YOUR KETTLE
If you are using the kettle for the first time, it is
recommended that you clean your kettle before
use by boiling a full kettle of water twice and
then discarding the water.
OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE
1. To fill the kettle, remove it from the power
base and open lid by lifting lid handle, fill with
the desired amount of water to the water
level. 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. Position the kettle on the power base.
3. Connect the plug into a power outlet. Move
the switch below the handle down. The
indicating light will light up. Then start to boil
the water. The kettle will switch off
automatically once the water has boiled. You

7

can shut off the power by moving the switch
button up at any moment during boiling.
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
carefully pour the water.
NOTE: operate carefully when pouring the water
from your kettle, as boiling water will scald.
5. The kettle will not re-boil when the switch is
in the up position. Allow to cool for 15~20
seconds before re-opening 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.
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to
operate without water, the boil-dry 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 before cleaning. Never immerse the kettle
or cord in water, or allow moisture to contact

build-up, use a De-scaler recommended for
plastic kettles.

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 this procedure and
then the kettle will then be ready to use.
