WARNING: RISK Of FIRE

OR ELECTRIC SHOCK

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product’s

enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of fire or electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or animals, or tripped over.

NOTICE

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

The Cuisinart TEA-100 is a versatile and innovative electric kettle designed specifically for tea enthusiasts. With its modern aesthetics and user-friendly functions, it not only enhances the tea brewing experience but also blends seamlessly into any kitchen.

One of the standout features of the TEA-100 is its ability to boil water at various temperatures, catering to the unique requirements of different tea types.

This flexibility ensures that each cup of tea is brewed perfectly, extracting the best flavor and aroma from the leaves.

The TEA-100 is equipped with a rapid-boil system, which not only heats water quickly but also ensures a consistently precise temperature. This technology is crucial for maintaining the integrity of flavors, especially for specialty teas that require specific steeping conditions. Additionally, the kettle features a built-in tea infuser, allowing users to brew loose leaf teas directly in the kettle or to steep tea bags for added convenience.

The user interface of the Cuisinart TEA-100 is intuitive, boasting an LCD screen that clearly displays the selected temperature and time. The kettle also comes with a programmable timer feature, enabling users to set their preferences in advance. This means that tea lovers can wake up to perfectly brewed tea or have it ready upon returning home.

Safety is paramount in the design of the TEA-100. It includes automatic shut-off and boil-dry protection mechanisms, preventing the kettle from overheating or being used when there is no water inside. Its ergonomic handle ensures a secure grip, making pouring effortless.

In terms of maintenance, the stainless steel construction not only looks sleek but is also resistant to rust and staining. The wide mouth of the kettle makes it easy to clean, ensuring that tea residues can be removed without hassle.
