4. Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove all packaging materials and ensure all components (kettle body, power base, user manual) are present.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, fill the kettle with water to the MAX line. Add 3 tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice. Boil the mixture, then let it sit for 5-8 hours or overnight. Discard the water and rinse the kettle thoroughly. Repeat if necessary.
- Placement: Place the power base on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure the power cord is not dangling or in contact with hot surfaces.
5. Operating Instructions
- Fill the Kettle: Press the button on the handle to open the lid. Fill the kettle with fresh water, ensuring it is between the MIN (0.5L) and MAX (1.7L) water level indicators. Do not overfill or underfill.
- Place on Base: Close the lid securely. Place the kettle body onto the power base. The kettle is cordless and can be rotated 360 degrees on the base.
- Start Boiling: Plug the power base into a standard electrical outlet. Flip the ON/OFF switch located on the handle downwards. The blue LED indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the kettle is heating.
- Automatic Shut-Off: The kettle will rapidly heat the water. Once the water reaches boiling point, the kettle will automatically shut off, and the blue LED light will extinguish.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your kettle.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
- Interior Cleaning (Descaling): Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. To descale, mix 3 tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice with water, fill the kettle to the MAX line, boil, and let it sit for 5-8 hours or overnight. Discard the water and rinse thoroughly. Repeat if necessary.
- Filter Cleaning: The filter in the spout can be removed for cleaning. Rinse it under running water and gently brush away any deposits. Ensure it is properly reinserted before use.
- Storage: When not in use, ensure the kettle is clean and dry. The power cord can be rolled and stored at the bottom of the base.
- Important: The kettle body is for hand washing only. Do not immerse the kettle body or power base in water or any other liquid.
