level through the lid. Close the lid.
The water level must always cover the lowest mark on the gauge. Do NOT fill

Boiling the Kettle
g
Before first use or after storage:
Fill the kettle with fresh water. Boil the water. Pour away the boiled water.
Repeat this two or three times. The kettle is now ready for use.
Switch on the power at the wall socket.
The kettle ON/OFF switch is located below the handle.
Press this down to switch the kettle on. The water gauge
will illuminate showing the kettle is operational.
When the water has reached the desired temperature, the kettle will switch off
automatically. You can stop the boiling at any time by lifting the switch up.
To re-boil, depress the switch again. If the water is very hot, it may be
necessary to wait until the switch resets.
Always ensure the lid is tightly fitted and never lift it while the kettle is boiling
or you run the risk of scalding. If the lid is not correctly fitted while boiling, the
automatic cut-out will not operate and you may boil the kettle dry.
After boiling, switch off the appliance at the mains.
The kettle may now be safely removed from its base and the boiled water
poured out. Always take care to pour boiling water slowly and carefully
without tipping the kettle too quickly. Never leave hot water in the kettle while
it is unattended.
After use, replace the kettle on its base.
