the appliance.
3. Allow the appliance to dry fully after cleaning before using.

How To Boil Water

1. To fill with water, remove the lid and pour
fresh water to below the "MAX" water level
mark, which is 1 liter. Do not exceed the
"MAX" water level mark indicated on the
kettle. (Figure 1)
2. Put the lid back on the kettle with ribbed
spout strainer lined up with spout. Lift the
plunger up and turn clockwise to have the
axle of the plunger clipped on the lid.
3. Position the power base on a flat, heat
resistant surface, as close as possible to a
power outlet.
4. Place the kettle on the base and plug the
electric cord into an electric outlet. (Figure 2)
5. Turn the switch ON by pressing the ON/OFF
button ( ). Once the temperature indicator
lights up make sure the light is marked on
195°F.

How To Make Coffee

Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee
For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground coffee
measurements.
Suggested Coffee Measurements chart
The taste of coffee is personal, but it is recommended to use
2 tablespoons per "cup" of water (average cup 5oz) use
more or less coffee grounds according to taste.
Tip: Grinding fresh coffee beans is an important step in
brewing a great cup of coffee. It is recommended that the
grind should be coarse than an auto drip, this minimizes
the amount of fine grinds in the bottom of your cup. Some
grinders have a "French Press" or "Percolator" setting to
indicate coarse grind. The proper grind should look similar to
bread crumbs.
