Before Using for the First Time

1. Boil a kettle of water following the Operating Instructions described in this Instruction Manual.
2. Discard the boiled water. Your kettle is now ready for use.

Operating Instructions

CAUTION: Do not immerse power base, power cord, or plug in water or any other liquid.
1. Position the power base on a stable, level surface near an electrical outlet. Unwind the power cord from
the cord storage area located beneath the power base. Make sure the cord exits through the cord exit
slot on the side of the power base.
2. Check that the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF (up) position.
3. Remove the kettle from the power base. Remove the lid. Fill with fresh, cold water to the desired level.
The kettle yields up to 6 cups (1.5 liters) of water. Add water but do not fill above the MAX water level.
Wipe excess water off the kettle.
CAUTION: Never add water above the MAX water level. This could cause boiling water to splatter out.
NOTE: If the kettle is accidentally switched ON without sufficient water, a boil-dry protection device
will automatically turn the unit OFF. (See Boil-Dry Protection explanation in this Instruction Manual).
4. Check to be sure the sealing ring is properly assembled onto the lid. Close the lid and press down
gently until it snaps into position to ensure it is fully closed. Otherwise the kettle may not turn OFF
after boiling.
CAUTION: To avoid the risk of splashing while pouring hot water, make sure the lid is securely closed
onto the kettle before operation.
5. Place the kettle on the power base, taking care not to spill any water.
6. Plug the power cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet. Press the ON/OFF switch down to the ON position.
The ON/OFF switch button will illuminate. Water will begin heating immediately.
7. When a rolling boil is reached, the ON/OFF switch will then turn off; the switch will lift (up)
automatically and the kettle will turn OFF.
NOTE: The kettle can be turned OFF any time during the heating process by lifting the ON/OFF
switch up.
WARNING: This appliance generates heat and escaping steam during use. Proper precautions must be
taken to prevent the risk of burns, fires, or other injury to persons or damage to property. Keep hands
and face clear of the area above the kettle.
8. Grasp the handle and carefully lift the kettle from the power base before pouring.
CAUTION: Always check that the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF (up) position before removing it from
the power base.
CAUTION: To avoid a risk of splashing, make sure the lid is securely closed onto the kettle before
operating. Pour slowly and be careful to not over-tilt the kettle.
CAUTION: Do not touch hot surfaces!
9. To reheat, check the water level to ensure it is above the MIN water level. If necessary, add more
water before returning the kettle to the power base.
10. Allow at least 30 seconds before pressing the ON/OFF switch down to the ON position.
11. When not in use unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Allow the unit to cool completely
before cleaning. Empty the kettle after each use. Do not allow water to sit in the kettle overnight.
