IF YOUR KETTLE BOILS DRY

The heating element is protected by two automatic safety devices. If your kettle is acci- dentally switched on without being filled with water, or is allowed to boil dry, the kettle will automatically switch off. You should:

1.Turn the kettle OFF, unplug the kettle and wait about 20 minutes for the element to cool down.

2.Refill the kettle, then use as normal and check that the kettle functions correctly.

IF YOUR KETTLE DOES NOT WORK

Make these simple checks before calling the toll-free customer assistance number:

•Have you switched the power switch button to ON ( l ) position?

•If the kettle heats but does not boil, it might need descaling.

•Has the kettle been accidentally switched on without being

filled with water or allowed to boil dry? Turn the kettle OFF, wait 20 minutes and try again.

•Is the kettle cord firmly plugged into the outlet and the kettle firmly seated in the base?

CLEANING YOUR KETTLE

1.With kettle unplugged, empty any remaining water and rinse. Allow kettle to cool. The mesh filter may be removed by pressing inward through the spout with a finger. The filter will drop into kettle cavity.

To insert the filter into the spout, position the filter with tabs toward spout and press filter until it fits into place.

2.To avoid scale/lime deposit build-up, empty kettle after each use.

3.Wipe the exterior of kettle with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or powders as they may scratch the smooth surface of the kettle.

NEVER IMMERSE THE KETTLE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS.
