PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AROUND CHILDREN

To prevent burns or other personal injuries to children, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AROUND CHILDREN

Always supervise children.

Do not allow children to operate or be near the Kettle, as the outside surfaces are hot during use.

Do not allow cord to hang over any edge where a child can reach it. Arrange cord to avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement.

USING YOUR KETTLE

First Use: Remove all packaging from the kettle and the power base. Before using

wash all loose parts in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry. NOTE: We recommend that the kettle be boiled two to three times and emptied after each occasion, to remove any residues from the manufacturing process.

1.Place appliance on dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.

2.With switch in the “OFF” position, plug cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet only.

3.Filter must be in place to activate auto-shut off feature and for proper operation. Fill the kettle, taking care not to splash the electrical contacts on the bottom of the unit, and observing the MIN and MAX levels. If the electrical contact area of the kettle is splashed, it should be dried or left to dry before use.

4.Fit the kettle onto the power base. Plug the power base into the electrical outlet and depress the switch into the “ON” position. The red power indicator will illuminate. When the kettle has finished boiling, the automatic cut-off system will switch the kettle to the “OFF” position.

Always ensure the water fill does not exceed the MAX level and is above the MIN level as indicated on or inside the kettle body.

Only use the kettle for boiling water.

Do not operate the kettle dry. Always use with water.

The kettle body can only be used with the complementing power base, and vice versa: These parts cannot be interchanged with other types or brands of kettles available.

Ensure the power is switched off before removing the kettle from the base.

Use extreme caution when pouring as boiling water can cause scalding.

Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.
