If Kettle Boils Dry: The heating element is protected by two
automatic safety devices. If your kettle is accidentally switched on
without being filled with water, or is allowed to boil dry, the kettle
will automatically switch off. You should:
• Turn the switch to OFF ( ), unplug, and wait about 20 minutes for
the element to cool down.
• Refill the kettle; then use as normal and check that the kettle
functions correctly.
If Kettle Does Not Work: Make these simple checks before calling
the toll-free customer service number:
• Have you turned power switch to ON (l) position?
• If the kettle heats but does not boil, it might need descaling.
• Has the kettle been accidentally switched on without being filled
with water or allowed to boil dry? Wait 20 minutes, and try again.
• Is cord firmly plugged into the outlet and kettle firmly seated in the
base?
Anti-Scale Mesh Filter: Scale is caused by lime and calcium in
hard water. The mesh filter will prevent these suspended particles
from being poured out of the kettle. The filter should be cleaned
periodically to ensure optimum performance. To clean the filter,
unplug kettle and allow to cool. Gently brush filter with a clean, wet
toothbrush. Rinse toothbrush and repeat if necessary.
