Using the kettle
With the specially designed power base and central connector, you can now set the kettle on the base at any angle, from any position.
•Release cord from storage base and adjust length by winding around the base to give the correct cord length to reach the plug socket to be used (fig. 4).
•Do not leave loose cord hanging over the edge of work sur- faces.
Filling
•Remove the kettle from the base unit before filling.
•Remove the lid and fill the kettle to the desired level.
Do not fill with less than 0,3 litre of water (min level) to prevent the kettle running dry while in use; misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element.
Do not fill with more than 1,7 litres of water (max. level).
If the kettle is overfilled, there is a risk that boiling water may overflow and cause burns.
•To close the lid, push it onto the kettle body until it clicks firmly into place.
•The water level indicator enables you to see the quantity of water in the kettle.
