Clean your electric kettle before first use

1. Wash the inside of the kettle and lid with mild
detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly. Do not
immerse the kettle or power base in water or any other
liquid. These items are not dishwasher safe.
2. Fill the electric kettle with fresh water to the "MAX"
water level mark on water window. Boil the water,
following the directions below for use of your specific
kettle.
3. When the water and unit have cooled, discard the
water. Rinse with cold water and repeat.
4. Your electric kettle is now ready for use.

Using your Detachable Base Electric Kettle

1. Position the power base on a flat, heat resistant
surface, as close as possible to a power outlet.
2. Follow cord routing in power base according to exit
patterns. Proper cord routing will result in the power
base laying flat when kettle is placed on base. DO not
operate kettle if power base is not flat. If power base
is not flat, remove kettle from power base and repeat
cord placement instructions.
3. To fill with water, open the lid. Fill the electric kettle
with water to the desired level.
NOTE: Do not exceed the "MAX" water level mark
indicated on the electric kettle.
4. Place kettle back on power base. Plug the electric
cord into an electric outlet. Turn the switch ON by
pushing down on the on/off switch. The on/off light
will illuminate to indicate the unit is on. The water will
heat and the electric kettle will switch off automatically
when the water has boiled.
NOTE: Ensure the ON/OFF switch is clear of
obstructions and the lid is firmly closed. The electric
kettle will not turn off automatically if the ON/OFF
switch is constrained, or if the lid is left open.

5. Carefully lift the kettle from the power base and pour
the hot water.
NOTE: The kettle will not re-boil until the on/off
switch is again switched ON. Wait 15-20 seconds,
allowing kettle to cool down, then switch ON.

Filter removal / cleaning / refitting

Important: The kettle must be switched off, disconnected
from the power outlet and allowed to cool down
completely prior to removing or refitting the filter. Do not
use excessive force, as this might damage the filter or the
lid.
1. Empty the kettle and open lid.
2. Hold lid open with one hand and grip the top part of
the filter with index finger and thumb. Caution: Keep
fingers clear of mesh. Pressing into mesh may damage
filter.
3. To remove filter simply pull upwards. This will disengage
the filter from its guides (see illustration).
4. To clean the filter, rinse under a tap while brushing it
gently with a soft brush.
5. To refit filter, once again hold lid open with one hand
and filter with index finger and thumb. Gently push filter
back into the kettle until it fits
snugly in its guides. Be sure to
fit the bottom lip of the filter
snugly in the center guide.
This will center the filter in the
spout, ensuring a good fit.
6. Rinse out kettle with fresh water
and it's ready for use.
