INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing our product.
In doing so, you have opted for an effective high-
performance appliance.
If the instructions on the correct use of this appliance
are not observed, the manufacturer shall assume no
responsibility for any resulting damage.
The operating instructions may refer to different
models: any difference is clearly identified.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Carefully wipe the outside of the appliance to remove
any dust that may have accumulated. Dry with a dry
cloth. Do not immerse the supply cord in water or other
liquids. If you are using the kettle for the first time, it is
recommended that you clean it before use by boiling a
full kettle of water twice and discarding the water.
OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE
Use the kettle only with its included base.
1. To fill the kettle, remove it from the power base
and open the lid by pressing the lid opening
button, fill with the desired amount of water, and
then close the lid. Alternatively, the kettle may be
filled through the spout. The water level should
not exceed the max marks or sit below the min
level. Too little water will cause the kettle to switch
off before the water has boiled.
The max capacity of the kettle is 1.7L. Do not
add water over the maximum level, as it may
spill out of the spout when boiling. Ensure that the
lid is firmly in place before connecting the plug into
a power outlet.

2. Position the kettle on the power base.
3. Connect the plug into a power outlet. Press down
the switch: the indicator in the water gauge will
light up. Then start boiling the water. The kettle
will switch off automatically once the water has
boiled.
4. Lift the kettle from the power base and then pour
the water.
5. The kettle will not boil again until the switch is
pressed again. The kettle may be stored on the
power base when not in use.
Ensure that the switch is free of obstructions
and the lid is firmly closed. The kettle will not
turn off if the switch is constrained or if the lid is
open.
Be careful when pouring the water from your
kettle as boiling water may cause scalds. Do
not open the lid while the water in the kettle is hot.
BOIL-DRY PROTECTION
Should you accidentally let the kettle operate without
water, the boil-dry protection will automatically switch
off the power. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool
down before filling with cold water.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect the appliance from the power outlet
before cleaning.
1. Never immerse the kettle, power cord or power
base in water and never allow moisture to get in
contact with these parts.
2. Wipe the outside of the body with a damp cloth or
cleaner. Never use a poisonous cleaner.
3. Remember to clean the filter on a regular basis.
For easier cleaning, detach the filter by pulling it
upwards. Then replace it after cleaning.
Do not use chemical, steel, wooden or
abrasive cleaners or brushes to clean the
outside of the kettle to prevent any gloss loss.
REMOVAL OF MINERAL
DEPOSITS
Your kettle should be periodically descaled, as the
mineral deposits in tap water may form scale on
the bottom of the kettle and cause a less efficient
operation. You can use any commercially available
