Before first use

Remove any promotional material attached to your kettle. It is recommended that before the first use the kettle is filled to the maximum level, boiled and water discarded. Your kettle will only operate when positioned on the power base with the On/Off switch in the On position. The kettle will automatically switch off once the water has boiled.

Operation of your kettle

1.To fill the kettle, remove it from the power base and open the lid by pressing the lid release button. Fill with the desired amount of water. Always fill the kettle between the minimum and maximum marks on the water window. Too little water will result in the kettle switching off before the water has boiled.

2.Ensure that the lid is locked firmly into place. Place the kettle firmly onto the power base. Plug the power cord into 110V power outlet.

3.Press the On/Off switch to the ‘On’ position. The power ‘On’ light and the water guage will illuminate.

Always fill the kettle between the minimum (Min) and the maximum (Max) marks on the exterior of the kettle. Too little water will result in the kettle switching “Off” before the water has boiled. Filling above the maximum mark on the exterior of the kettle may result in boiling water splashing from the kettle.

Note

This kettle must only be used with the power base supplied. Use caution when pouring water from your kettle, as boiling water will scald. Do not pour the water too quickly.

Note

The kettle will automatically switch ‘Off’ once the water has boiled. Lift the kettle from the power base and pour the water. Take care to hold the kettle level, especially when filled to the maximum level. To re-boil it may be necessary to wait for a few seconds to allow the control to reset.

The kettle may be stored on its power base when not in use. Remove the power cord from the power outlet.

Safety boil dry protection

The kettle is fitted with a safety device, which protects against overheating should the appliance be operated with insufficient water. If this occurs the kettle will stop heating. Switch ‘Off’ at the power point and allow kettle to cool before refilling. The safety device will automatically reset when the kettle has cooled down.

For additional safety your kettle is fitted with an additional thermal cut out. In the event of overheating, the kettle will automatically shut down to prevent further damage. Should this occur, take your kettle to an authorised Breville Service Center.
