Using Your Electric Kettle

BEFORE FIRST USE: Fill kettle to
MAX indicator on water level window
and bring to a boil until kettle shuts off
automatically. Discard water and
repeat. Rinse out kettle 2 or 3 times.
The kettle is now ready for use.

before filling.
2. Fill kettle with required amount of
water. Ensure that water level is
between MIN and MAX on the
water level indicator. If using the
mesh filter, it must be in place.
If kettle is overfilled, boiling water may spit out of the spout.
If Heating Element Discolors
It is normal for stainless steel heating elements to discolor. This does not affect
the performance of the kettle. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners as
this may damage the stainless steel surface.
