This document describes the 1.7 Litre Nordic Kettle, model SK14610 (available in all colours), manufactured by Swan. This appliance is designed for household and similar applications, providing a convenient way to boil water.
The Swan Nordic Kettle is an electric appliance primarily designed for boiling water. It operates by heating water contained within its body using an internal heating element. The kettle is placed on a dedicated stand, which provides the electrical connection to the mains supply. Once the power switch is pressed, the heating process begins, and the kettle will automatically switch itself off once the water has reached boiling point. This automatic shut-off feature ensures safety and prevents over-boiling. The kettle is designed for ease of use, allowing users to fill it either via the spout or by opening the lid. Its primary function is to quickly and efficiently provide boiled water for various purposes, such as making hot beverages or for cooking.
The Swan Nordic Kettle incorporates several features to ensure safe and efficient operation. Before initial use, all packaging should be removed. It is crucial to ensure that the correct plug adaptor is used if operating in a country that does not use the UK 13 Amp socket system; if unsure, a qualified electrician should be consulted.
To operate the kettle, it should be filled with water, ensuring the water level is between the MIN and MAX lines on the water gauge. It is explicitly stated that the kettle should not be overfilled past the MAX level, as this poses a scalding risk due to potential ejection of boiling water. After filling, the lid must be firmly closed. The kettle is then placed on its base, connected to the mains supply, and the power switch is pressed down. For the first use, it is recommended to discard the water from the initial boil.
The appliance is designed for use with the provided stand only. Spillage on the connector should be avoided to prevent electrical hazards. Users should be aware that the heating element surface will be subject to residual heat after use, so caution is advised. Always verify that the voltage indicated on the rating label matches the mains voltage in your home to prevent incorrect operation and potential damage or injury.
This kettle is suitable for use by children aged 8 years and above, provided they receive proper supervision and instruction on safe usage and understand the associated hazards. However, cleaning and user maintenance should not be performed by children unless they are over 8 years old and supervised. The appliance and its cord must be kept out of reach of children under 8 years.
The kettle should always be operated on a smooth, even, and stable surface, and never placed on a hot surface. It is not suitable for outdoor use and should only be used for its intended purpose. The appliance should not be carried by its power cord. It is important not to leave the appliance unattended during use. Always unplug the unit when not in use, before cleaning, or when adding or removing parts. To disconnect from the mains, grip the plug itself, rather than pulling on the cord.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended or supplied by the manufacturer is discouraged, as it may lead to injuries, fire, or electric shock. The cord should not hang over the edge of a table or counter where it could be pulled inadvertently. It should also be kept away from hot surfaces, gas or electric burners, or heated ovens. The appliance should not be used on a gas or electric cooking top or near an open flame. While the use of an extension cord is not recommended, if one is necessary, it must be suited to the appliance's power consumption to prevent overheating. The extension cord should also be positioned to avoid being pulled by children or animals, or causing trips.
The appliance must never be switched on via an external timer or any separate remote control system.
Proper maintenance is essential for the longevity and optimal performance of the Swan Nordic Kettle. Damage caused by excessive lime scale build-up is not covered by the product warranty.
For households in hard water areas, regular de-scaling of the kettle is necessary. De-scaling tablets, powders, or liquids, widely available in supermarkets, are recommended for this purpose. Regular de-scaling ensures the kettle provides many years of faithful service and prevents damage caused by lime scale, which can also increase boiling time and electricity consumption.
For cleaning the external surfaces of the kettle, a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution is sufficient. Abrasive or strong chemical cleaners should not be used. It is crucial not to immerse any part of the product in water for cleaning.
Before any cleaning or maintenance, always ensure the product is unplugged from the mains supply and is completely cool.
Regularly check the power cord and plug for any damage. If the cord or plug is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified person to avoid electrical hazards. The appliance should not be used if it has been dropped or damaged in any way; in such cases, it should be taken to an authorised service agent for examination and/or repair. In case of technical problems, the product should be switched off, and no attempt should be made to repair it yourself. Instead, return it to an authorised service facility for examination, adjustment, or repair, always insisting on the use of original spare parts. Failure to comply with these precautions and instructions could affect the safe operation of the product.
