IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, 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
(on the bottom of the kettle and base) corresponds with the voltage in your home. If this is not the case,
contact your dealer and stop using the kettle.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch a hot surface.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
To avoid damaging the heat element, do not operate the appliance without anything in it.
Use the kettle on a firm, flat surface out of reach of children. This will prevent the kettle from overturning
and avoid damage or injury.
To protect against 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 boiled, avoid contact with steam from the spout.
Always take care to pour boiling water slowly and carefully without tipping the kettle too fast.
Be careful refilling when the kettle is hot.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has
been damaged in any manner.
The appliance is not a toy. Do not let the children play it.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
The appliance is not a toy.
Do not touch the hot surface. Use the handle or the button.
The attached base cannot be used for other than intended use.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot water.
The kettle is for household use only. Do not use outdoors.
The use of accessories which are not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire,
electric shock or personal injury.
Unplug the kettle from the power outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the kettle to cool
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
To disconnect, turn any control to “off,” then unplug plug from power outlet.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use.
The kettle can be used only with the stand provided.
If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may spill out.
Always ensure the lid is closed and do not lift it while the water is boiling. Scalding may occur if the lid
is removed during the brewing cycles.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
NOTES ON THE PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a
polarized power outlet one way only. If the plug does not fit fully into the power outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
NOTES ON THE CORD
a) A short power cord (or detachable power cord) is provided to reduce risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
c) If a long detachable power cord or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power cord or extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded-type 3-wire cord;
and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled by children or tripped over.

BEFORE USING YOUR KETTLE
If you are using the kettle for the first time, clean your kettle before use by boiling the Max capacity of water twice
and discarding the water twice. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
NOTE: The max capacity of of kettle is 1.7L (57 ounces).
USING YOUR ELECTRIC KETTLE
Place the kettle on a flat surface.
To fill the kettle, remove it from the power base and open the lid by pressing the lid-release button.
Then fill the kettle with the desired amount of water and close the lid. The water level must be within the
Min and the Max level. Too little water will cause the kettle to switch off before the water has boiled.
NOTE: Do not fill the water beyond the maximum level, as water may spill out of the spout when boiling.
Ensure that the lid is firmly in place before plugging into a power outlet.
Position the kettle on the power base.
Connect the plug into a power outlet. Press down on the switch. The indicator will light up and the kettle
will start to boil the water. The kettle will switch off automatically once the water has boiled. Wait 30
seconds before pressing the switch again to reboil the water. You may shut off the power by lifting the
switch up or by lifting the kettle off the power base at any moment to stop the boiling process.
NOTE: Ensure that the switch is free of obstructions and that the lid is firmly closed. The kettle will not
turn off if the switch is obstructed or if the lid is open.
Lift the kettle off the power base and then pour the water.
NOTE: Pour water from the kettle carefully, as boiling water may cause scalding. Do not open the lid while
water in the kettle remains hot.
The kettle will not reboil until the switch is pressed again. The kettle may be stored on the power base
when not in use.
NOTE: Always disconnect the power supply when not use.
BOIL-DRY PROTECTION
Should you accidentally let the kettle operate without water, the boil-dry protection function will automatically
switch the power off. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool before filling with cold water for reboiling.
