Russell Hobbs RHK2

BEFORE USE
Remove all packaging from the kettle and its stand. Before using the kettle for
the first time, fill to the MAX mark, boil, then discard the boiled water. Do this
three times, then rinse the kettle out with cold water. This should remove any
dust, residues, etc. from the kettle.
HOW TO USE
Positioning
Position the stand on a flat stable surface, as close to a wall socket as possible.
Route the power cord so that it does not overhang the work surface, and cannot
be caught accidentally.
Opening the lid
Warning: If the kettle has just boiled, it will be full of steam, which will escape
as soon as the lid is opened. Keep your hands, face, etc. clear of the area above
the kettle.
Check that the switch is in the ‘Off’ (up) position.
Remove the kettle from the stand and set it down on a flat stable surface.
Grasp the lid knob then lift the lid up and away from the kettle, to prevent the
steam swirling round your hand.
Filling
Remove the kettle from the stand. Remove the lid and fill the kettle via the
lid aperture. Fill with at least 2 cups of water, but do not allow the water level
to rise above the MAX mark on the
inside of the kettle.
Do not overfill the kettle. If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may be ejected.
Check that the filter is in place. Replace the lid, and check it is fully closed,
otherwise the kettle may not switch off when it boils.

Switching on
Check that the switch is in the ‘Off’ (up) position.
Plug the stand into the wall socket. Switch the socket on.
Gently position the kettle on the stand, taking care not to spill any water.
Press the switch down. The Power-on indicator light will light up, and the
kettle will start to heat up.
When the water has boiled the kettle will switch off automatically, the switch
will return to the ‘Off’ position and the light will go out.
The kettle can be switched off at any time before the water boils by pressing
the switch up.
