to use your kettle

  1. Fill the kettle by removing the lid. The water level must be between 'MAX' and 'MIN' (250mls) on the water level gauge inside the kettle (A).
    • If you live in a hard water area we recommend that you use filtered water in order to maintain the appearance and efficiency of your kettle.
    • Be economical: do not boil more water than you need.
    • To improve the quality of your drinks always use fresh water.
    • Empty the kettle after each use.
    • Rinse out with fresh water if the kettle has not been used for more than 2 days.
  2. Check the lid is fitted correctly.
  3. Plug in and switch on. The power on light will come on.
  4. Your kettle will boil and switch off automatically. To re-boil, wait a few seconds - the on/off switch needs time to reset.
    Note - To interrupt the boiling ensure that the switch is in the off position before removing from the powerbase.
    • If you experience problems with your kettle switching on and off during use or switching off before boiling, check that the flat element is free from scale - see "descaling".
    • Your kettle is fitted with a filter to hold back limescale particles.
    • If you find drops of water under your kettle, do not worry - it is just condensation.

boil-dry protection

  • If you switch on with too little water, your kettle will cut out automatically. Switch off, remove from the powerbase and let it cool down before re-filling. When it has cooled down, the switch will reset itself.

care and cleaning

  • Before cleaning, unplug your kettle and let it cool down.

the outside and powerbase

  • Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry. Do not use abrasives - they will scratch the metal and plastic surfaces.

the inside

  • Wipe with bicarbonate of soda on a damp cloth. Rinse thoroughly.
  • Even though your kettle comes with a filter, you still need to clean the inside (and the filter) regularly.

the filter (B+C)

cleaning the filter

  1. Remove the lid.
  2. Lift the filter out away from the spout area (B).
  3. either rinse under the tap or use a soft brush or when descaling your kettle, drop the filter in too. Rinse thoroughly.
  4. Place the filter back in the spout area and push down to secure (C).

descaling

  • Regular descaling of the flat element will improve the performance of your kettle. If the kettle is not descaled regularly the build up of limescale may result in the following:
    • problems may be experienced with the kettle switching on and off during use or switching off before boiling.
    • the kettle may take longer to boil.
    • the flat element may be damaged.

Please note: Failure to descale your kettle may invalidate your guarantee.

  • When limescale starts to build up on the heating element, buy a suitable descaler and descale your kettle. After descaling, boil with fresh water several times and discard. Clean any descaler off the kettle - it can damage the parts.
  • Some regions of the country have chalky water. This makes boiled water look cloudy and leaves a deposit on the side of the kettle. This is normal but can be removed with regular cleaning.
  • Alternatively, to reduce limescale build up, use filtered water to fill your kettle.
