Important safety instructions

The use of any electrical appliance requires the following common sense safety rules.

Primarily there is danger of injury or death and secondly the danger of damage to the appliance. These are indicated in the text by the following two conventions:

WARNING: Danger to the person!

IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance! In addition we offer the following safety advice.

Location

•Always locate your kettle away from the edge of the worktop.

•Ensure that the kettle is used on a firm, flat surface.

•Do not use the kettle outdoors or in a bathroom.

•WARNING: Do not place the kettle onto a metal tray or metal surface whilst in use.

Personal safety

•Always pour hot water slowly and carefully without tipping the kettle too fast to prevent splashing and spillage.

•Extreme caution must be used when moving a kettle containing hot water.

•Do not touch hot surfaces, use handles or knobs.

•Always close the lid securely, otherwise the kettle may not switch off automatically and may spit out boiling water.

•Avoid contact with steam from the spout when the water is boiling or just after it has switched off.

•Take care if opening the lid for re-filling when the kettle is hot.

•Do not fill above the MAX mark, otherwise boiling water may be ejected.

•Do not hold the switch in the on position or tamper with the switch to fix it in the on position as this may cause damage to the switch-off mechanism.

•Unplug from the outlet before cleaning.

•Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.

Mains lead

•The mains lead should reach from the socket to the base unit without straining the connections. Reduce the length of the lead by storing the excess in the cord storage facility in the base unit.

•Do not let the mains lead hang over the edge of the worktop where a child could reach it.

•Do not let the lead run across an open space e.g. between a low socket and table.

•Do not let the lead run across a cooker or toaster or other hot area which might damage the cable.

•Do not place the kettle where the mains lead could fall into a sink.

Children

•Children do not understand the dangers associated with operating electrical appliances. Never allow children to use this appliance.

Other safety considerations

•To protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury do not immerse cord, plug or kettle in water or any other liquid.

•Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Ring the helpline number for advice on examination and repair.

•The use of attachments or tools not recommended or sold by Morphy Richards may cause fire, electric shock or injury.

•Do not attempt to connect any other appliance to the base unit or this appliance to another base unit.

•Do not tamper with the connector in any way.
