Before first use

Remove any packaging and promotional material from your kettle and position it on a
stable, secure, dry and level work surface away from the edge.
Before connecting to a power source, make sure your mains supply voltage is the same
as the one indicated on the appliance. Connect the plug to a suitable power outlet and
make sure that the power cord does not overhang the work surface. Excess power cord
can be stored in the power base.
Remove your kettle from the power base. Fill your kettle to the maximum mark and close
the lid.
Place your kettle back onto the power base. Press the BOIL button, allow it to boil
then discard the water. Repeat twice. This will remove any residue left over from the
manufacturing process.
