5. When the settings are as desired, press
the Power button to start heating. The
Heat Water icon will start blinking,
indicating that heating is underway.
Once water reaches the temperature
setting, the blinking Keep Warm icon
will appear in the display, indicating the
temperature at which the water will be
kept. If the Heat Water setting is 212°F,
the display will pass to the blinking Boil
Extend icon before it passes to the Keep
Warm icon.
Note: The Boil Extend function is for
operation at high altitude locations, where
water can begin to boil before it reaches
the normal boiling temperature of 212°F.
The extra 3 to 6 seconds that can be
added to heating are so that water may
heat to 212°F before the unit switches to
Keep Warm.

Fig. 3
are canceled. The kettle reverts to the default settings once it is placed back onto
the Power Base.
CAUTION: Be very careful when pouring water from kettle as boiling water can scald
you. Also to avoid scalding, do not open the kettle lid while the water in the kettle is hot.
EMPTY-STOP-OFF FUNCTION
The kettle will turn off automatically if it boils empty. If this occurs, unplug the
kettle and wait for it to cool down before using it again.
