Instructions for Use

Before First Use

Before using the kettle for the first time, wipe it clean with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Do not immerse the kettle in water or any other liquid.
Fill the kettle to the max. fill mark and boil the water, following the instructions in the section entitled ‘Using the Chevron Jug Kettle’. After the water has boiled, pour it away. If any slight taste or odour remains in the boiled water, repeat this process.

Note: When using the kettle for the first time, a slight odour may be emitted. This is normal and will soon subside. Allow for sufficient ventilation around the kettle.
Warning: The kettle or any accessories are not suitable for dishwasher use.

Using the Chevron Jug Kettle

STEP 1: Position the power base onto a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface at a height that is comfortable for the user.
STEP 2: Press the lid release button to open the flip-top lid and fill the kettle to the desired water level. The water level must be between the min. fill mark and the max. fill mark on the water gouge.
STEP 3: Close the flip-top lid until it clicks securely shut and place the kettle back onto the power base.
STEP 4: Plug in and switch on the kettle at the mains power supply, then push the power switch to the ‘on’ position until it clicks. The power switch will automatically flip back into the ‘off’ position when the kettle has boiled.
STEP 5: Once the water has stopped boiling vigorously, lift the kettle by the handle and pour out the desired amount of water. Do not pour the water too quickly as this may cause it to trickle down the side of the kettle.

Caution: Allow the kettle to cool thoroughly before touching or opening the flip-top lid.
Do not use the kettle if the power base or any of the electrical connectors are wet. Do not attempt to dry these whilst the kettle is plugged in.
If the power switch will not stay clicked in the ‘on’ position, do not force it to stay down. This may cause excess steam to escape from the flip-top lid, damage to the automatic shut-off mechanism or injury to the user.

The body and flip-top lid of the kettle get very hot during use. Do not touch any part of the kettle except the handle whilst it is in use or filled with hot water.
To avoid spilling water or user injury, wait for vigorous boiling to subside before lifting the kettle or pouring water.
Warning: The flip-top lid may spra1y water if flipped open after boiling – allow the kettle to cool before opening the flip-top lid.

Storage

The kettle must be cool, dean and dry before storing in a cool, dry place.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the kettle; wrap it loosely to avoid causing damage.
