Getting the best from your new water filter
kettle...
Safety first
Always pour water slowly and carefully to prevent the
splashing of scalding water.
Empty the water out of the kettle after first boiling
To clean away any deposits that are left in the kettle after the
manufacturing process.
Filling your water filter kettle
When filling your filter kettle, the water must cover the
element. The minimum is 1 cup or 30cls. Do not overfill
past the maximum mark as the filtration will be impaired.

PLEASE NOTE: It is quite normal to see black particles in the
bottom of the cartridge pack and in the top compartment
when in use. Please be assured that these particles are not
harmful to you or your filter kettle and you should not be

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The use of any electrical appliance requires the following
common sense safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of injury or death and secondly the
danger of damage to the appliance. These are indicated in
the text by the following two conventions:
WARNING: Danger to the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance!
In addition, we offer the following safety advice.
Location
• Always locate your kettle away from the edge of the
worktop.
• Ensure that the appliance is used on a firm, flat surface.
• Do not use the appliance outdoors, in a bathroom, or near
water.
• Do not place the kettle on a highly polished surface as
damage may occur.
• WARNING: Do not place the appliance onto a metal tray
or metal surface whilst in use.
Mains lead
• The mains lead should reach from the socket to the base
unit without straining the connections. Reduce the length of
the lead by storing the excess in the cord storage facility in
the base unit.
• Do not let the mains lead hang over the edge of the worktop
where a child could reach it.
• Do not let the lead run across an open space e.g. between a
low socket and a table.
• Do not let the lead run across a cooker or other hot area
which might damage the cable.

Personal safety
WARNING: To protect against fire, electric shock and
personal injury, do not immerse cord, plug and appliance

Always keep the top of the cordless base dry, especially
around the connection area. If wet, disconnect the power
supply before drying. Allow to dry thoroughly before
reconnection to the power supply.
Always pour hot water slowly and carefully without tipping
the appliance too fast to prevent splashing and spillage.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance
containing hot liquid.

Always close the lid securely, otherwise the kettle may not
switch off automatically and may spit out boiling water.
