Sound Levels; Before Using For The First Time - Russell Hobbs RHOK3123 Classic Satin Owner's Manual

SOUND LEVELS

Because the OPTEC™ DISC heating element boils water more
rapidly than the traditional type of heating element, you may find
that this Kettle is louder than many other Kettles. This is normal, and
should not be cause for alarm.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove all packaging from the Kettle and its Power Base. Remove
any labels from the outer stainless steel surfaces.
1. Make sure the ON/OFF Switch on the Kettle is in the OFF (0)
upper position. Fill the Kettle with water up to the MAX
Water Guide.
2. Gently position the Kettle over the power connector
and centered on the Power Base, taking care not to
spill any water.
3. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.
4. Press the ON/OFF Switch down ( I ) to turn the Kettle ON.
5. When the water has boiled, the Kettle will turn itself OFF
automatically and the Switch will return to the OFF (0) position.
6. Discard the boiled water and allow the Kettle to cool. Rinse out
with cold water. Repeat steps 1 through 6 at least three times, to
remove any manufacturing dust, etc.
EASY-TO-USE POWER BASE WITH 360° ACCESS
With the specially designed Power Base and central Power
Connector, you can set the Kettle on the Base at any angle,
from any position.
Position the Power Base on a flat, heat-resistant surface, as close to
an electrical outlet as possible. Shorten the power cord to suit by
wrapping excess power cord in the Cord Storage area underneath
the outer rim of the Power Base.
FILLING THE KETTLE WITH WATER
Remove the Kettle from its Power Base, remove Lid. Fill the Kettle
through the Lid opening. Use at least 350ml (10 fl oz/2 cups) of
water, and DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE BOTTOM OF THE MAX WATER
GUIDE INSIDE THE KETTLE.
CAUTION: When refilling, take care when lifting the Lid, as the
Kettle, if hot, may be full of steam. Keep your face,
hands, etc. clear of the opening.
WARNING: DO NOT OVERFILL THE KETTLE. IF THE KETTLE IS OVERFILLED,
THERE IS A RISK THAT BOILING WATER
MAY BE EJECTED.
