knobs.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not place or immerse cord, plugs, or appliance,
including the power base, in water or other liquid.
4. WARNING: The plug must be fully inserted into kettle. To ensure full insertion, verify
the marking on the plug is not visible. A loose contact may cause overheating.

malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Do not attempt to replace or
splice a damaged cord. Return appliance to the manufacturer (see warranty) for
examination, repair or adjustment.
