SAFETY GUIDE
Please follow all the safety precautions listed below for
safety and to reduce the risk of injury or electrical shock.
● Do not touch the body of the kettle when it is hot. Always
hold the appliance by the handle when using it.
● Always ensure the lid is closed when in use. Failure to
close the lid will prevent the thermostat from switching off
and cause the kettle to boil dry.
● Keep the appliance well away from hot surfaces, and
objects that can be damaged by heat.
● Ensure there is at least 20 cm space left to operate the
kettle and that steam can escape safely. Never use the
kettle under a cupboard or shelf where the steam may
damage the surface.
● Avoid contact with the steam from the spout when the water
is boiling or just after it has switched off.
● Be careful when opening the lid for re-filling when the kettle
is hot.
● Ensure that the kettle cannot fall into water.
● Do not fill or pour water from the kettle while it is on the
base.
● Disconnect the kettle at the mains supply before filling or
emptying the jug, before cleaning any of its components,
and when it is not in use.
● Do not immerse the connecting cord in water or other
liquids.
● Do not allow liquids to come into contact with the body
connector of the kettle, its base or the connecting cord.
● Do not let the connecting cord overhang the edge of the
work surface or allow it to touch hot surfaces or sources of
heat or flame.
