will switch o ).
- To turn the kettle o before the water boils, you may move
the ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position, or simply lift the
kettle from its base it will switch o and the switch will
return to the OFF position automatically.
Pouring
- Remove the kettle from the power base and carefully pour
out the water. Do not tilt the kettle suddenly or pour water
out at too sharp an angle.
- When you lift the kettle from the base, you may see
moisture on the top surface of the base. Condensation on
the base is perfectly normal, and should not be a cause for
alarm.
SAFETY DEVICES
1) Automatic ON/OFF switch:
Your kettle is tted with an ON/OFF switch which
automatically switches o once the water has boiled. If the
kettle has just boiled, wait a minute or so before re-boiling
the kettle. Do not attempt to hold the ON/OFF switch in
the on position or adjust the switch mechanism.
2) Safety cut-out:
If the kettle is switched ON with too little or no water, it is
protected against damage by a safety cut-out which will
switch o the power. If this cut-out operates, disconnect
the kettle from the mains supply and leave to cool down
before relling with cold water (otherwise the element
could be damaged).
3) If kettle is lifted from base while operating (ON), it will
automatically switch o.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the kettle
- Allow the kettle to cool down fully and disconnect the
appliance from the mains before cleaning.
- Do not immerse the kettle or base in water.
- Use a soft dampened cloth to wipe the outside of the
kettle and dry with a soft, dry cloth.
- DO NOT use metal polish or harsh scouring agents.
- Ensure that all connectors and sockets are kept dry.
Scale
Scale is mainly calcium carbonate (chalk), a harmless, naturally
occurring mineral found in most water supplies. “Hard” water
contains more of this mineral than “soft” water.
When the water is heated, the minerals in the water solidify,
making the water appear cloudy. These minerals form a thin
lm on the walls, element and on the surface of the water.
The water may look like it has white coloured pieces of plastic
oating on the surface. On traditional kettle elements, scale
forms a hard white “crust” which adversely aects performance
and reduces the life of the element.
As soon as you notice a lm forming on the water, or, when
cleaning the lter, if you notice a lm on the walls or the
element, simply rinse the kettle and wipe it out.
Scale lter
Your kettle is tted with a scale lter to prevent loose particles
of scale being poured into your beverage. This lter is both
removable and washable.
The frequency with which you will need to clean any scale
deposits from your lter will depend on the hardness of water in
your area and how often you use the kettle. You should remove
and clean the water lter when you notice any deposits being
left on the lter or if the pouring eciency is impaired.
Removing the scale lter
- Allow the kettle to cool down fully.
- Disconnect the appliance from the mains electrical supply.
- Make sure that your hands are clean and free from soap,
cream or anything which might taint the water.
- Empty the kettle and remove the lter as shown in g. 1.
- Rinse under a tap whilst brushing with a soft brush (g. 2).
- Replace the lter (g. 3).
To clean the scale lter
It is vital to clean and descale regularly in order to maintain
good working order.
- Use descaler for kettles.
When limescale starts forming on the heating element,
buy a suitable descaler and descale according to the
instructions given on the descaler pack. After descaling,
boil the kettle repeatedly with fresh water and rinse
thoroughly to completely eliminate all residues of descaler
which could damage the appliance. If the lter requires
descaling, remove and immerse in the same descaling
solution.
- Make sure electric parts are completely dry before using
the kettle.
