Before Using for the First Time

Read all Important Safeguards and Operating Instructions before using this kettle. Discard the first filling of boiling water to remove any dust and residues from the manufacturing process.

3.Fill with the desired amount of fresh cold water. The kettle has minimum and maximum markings. Never underfill or overfill the kettle.

CAUTION / DANGEROUS: Never fill above the MAX line. If you fill above the max line, boiling water will push out of the pouring spout. This can cause severe injuries and burns.

6.Plug cord into outlet. The display illuminates and shows the kettle symbol and 212ºF (Fig. 3a).

7.Push the On/Off button (Fig. 2d). The kettle symbol will blink, indicating that the kettle is heating the water. The warmer the water becomes the more you will hear the noise of the water heating up.

9.Lift kettle from base and pour water out slowly. For different settings see chapters 4, 5 and 6.

2. DRY BOIL SHUT-OFF PROTECTION

If you turn the kettle on without water in the kettle, the heater will shut off after a few seconds. The display will go blank. Once the kettle has cooled down, the display will come back on again. This can take several minutes. To speed up this process you can fill some cold water into the kettle. You will hear a clicking noise. This indicates that the thermostat has reset itself. If you place the kettle back on the power base, the display will show the default setting again (Fig. 3a).

Please note: AUTO-OFF. The kettle will always shut-off after the selected temperature has been reached.
