especially during relling. Never open the lid when the kettle is boiling.
1. With the kettle switched off, plug the power base into a suitable power outlet.

base.

pouring it.
Energy saving hints and tips
A Breville kettle, if used correctly, is a very energy efcient device. Why not try these
energy saving tips:
• Only boil the water you need. Overlling your kettle by one cup is the equivalent to
using an energy saving light bulb for one hour!
• It is not always necessary to re-boil your kettle. For example, one litre of water will
still be at 90°C after ve minutes - the perfect temperature for a cup of coffee.
