Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.
[. . . ] 8 Route the cable so it doesn't overhang, and can't be tripped over or caught. 9 Unplug the stand when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. 10 Check the lid is fully closed before switching the kettle on, or it may not switch off. [. . . ] 16 When it boils, it'll switch itself off, and the lights will go out. 11 12 13 14 15
boiling
general
18 Remove the kettle from the stand before pouring. 19 To avoid the risk of splashing, pour slowly and don't over-tilt the kettle. 20 Don't tilt the kettle backwards water might get on to the control area. If this happens, let the kettle dry before use sit it somewhere warm for 12 hours. 21 Don't worry if you see moisture on the stand it's the steam used to switch off automatically, which then condenses and escapes via vents under the kettle. Again, don't worry it's due to the bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
using with insufficient water
23 This will shorten the life of the element. 25 To reset the boil-dry cut-out, remove the kettle from the stand, and sit it on the work surface till it's cold. You may use a little household detergent, but if you do, rinse well to avoid tainting the water. 33 Don't use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
care and maintenance
descale regularly even in soft water areas
34 Limescale may be white, coloured, even rusty-looking, but it's normally visible. 35 Phosphate scale isn't generally visible, but it's there, even in soft water areas. 36 All scale causes overheating, which reduces the life of the element, and may trigger the boil-dry cut-out. 37 So, even with soft water, descale regularly, to help keep your kettle in working order. 38 Use a descaler suitable for plastic products (all kettles have plastic parts). 39 Follow the instructions on the descaler, then rinse several times, fill, boil and discard the water, to remove all chemical residues. , Products returned under guarantee with faults related to scale will be subject to a repair charge. [. . . ] If it's not working, read the instructions, check the plug fuse and main fuse/circuit breaker. If that doesn't solve the problem: Pack carefully, with a note of your name, address, day phone number, and what's wrong. If under guarantee, say where and when purchased, and include proof of purchase (till receipt). [. . . ]
