GENERAL
 Always remove the kettle from the stand before pouring.
 To avoid the risk of splashing, pour slowly and do not over-tilt the kettle.
 Do not tilt the kettle backwards; water might get on to the control area. If this
happens, let the kettle dry thoroughly before use – place it somewhere warm for
12 hours.
 When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. Do not worry – it’s
the steam used to switch the kettle off automatically, which then condenses and
escapes via vents under the kettle.
 You may see some discolouration on the floor of the kettle. Again, do not worry –
it’s due to the bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
USING WITH INSUFFICIENT WATER
 This will shorten the life of the element. A boil-dry cut-out will switch the kettle off
should there not be sufficient water in the kettle when in use.
 To prevent the kettle cycling on and off, remove the kettle from the stand and let
it cool before replacing it on the stand.
 Place the kettle on a stable and dry work surface until it is cold.
 Don’t fill it the kettle until it is cold, or it may spit hot water and steam.
