ADDITIONAL WARNINGS FOR KETTLES:

1.The kettle is fitted with a dry-operation cut-out, that switches off the kettle if it has boiled dry. If this happens allow the kettle to cool down for approximately 15 minutes, and then fill the kettle with cold water. This will reset the cut-out so that the kettle can be used again.

2.Do not overfill. Check the water level gauge when filling.

3.Ensure the lid is closed properly before switching on, to prevent water splashing out when boiling. Do not open the lid while the kettle is boiling.

4.After the kettle has boiled it may need a few minutes to cool down before re-boiling .

5.Take care when pouring. Pour slowly and do not over-tilt.

6.Make sure the kettle is always used on a flat surface.

7.Water will remain hot for a considerable amount of time after boiling and will present a scalding hazard. Take care and keep away from children.

8.The outside surface of the kettle will become hot during use. To avoid injuries only use the handle.

9.Take care to avoid contact with the steam coming from the lid or spout.
