Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the kettle and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, fill the kettle with clean water up to the MAX fill line. Boil the water, then discard it. Repeat this process 2-3 times to remove any manufacturing residues.
3. Placement: Place the power base on a dry, flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure it is away from the edge of the counter and out of reach of children.
4. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the specifications of your kettle (120V/60Hz).

Operating Instructions

1. Fill the Kettle: Remove the lid and fill the kettle with fresh, cold water. Do not fill below the MIN mark or above the MAX fill line (1.0L). Overfilling may cause boiling water to spill out.
2. Secure the Lid: Place the lid back onto the kettle securely.
3. Place on Base: Position the kettle firmly onto the power base.
4. Start Boiling: Press the ON/OFF switch located on the power base. The indicator light will illuminate, signifying that the kettle is heating.
5. Automatic Shutoff: The kettle will automatically turn off once the water reaches a rolling boil. The indicator light will extinguish.
6. Pouring: Carefully lift the kettle from its base using the handle. The gooseneck spout allows for controlled and precise pouring, ideal for pour-over coffee or tea.
7. Re-boiling: If you need to re-boil water immediately after it has shut off, wait a few seconds for the internal thermostat to reset, then press the ON/OFF switch again.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your kettle.

• Before Cleaning: Always unplug the kettle from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the finish.
• Interior Cleaning (Hand Wash): The interior of the kettle can be cleaned by hand. Use a soft sponge and mild dish soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly.
• Descaling: Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. To descale:
1. Fill the kettle with a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts water.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil and then let it stand for at least 30 minutes, or longer for heavy deposits.
3. Discard the mixture and rinse the kettle thoroughly with fresh water several times.
4. For stubborn deposits, a non-abrasive descaling solution designed for kettles can be used following the product's instructions.
• Storage: When not in use, store the kettle in a dry place. You can wrap the power cord around the base for neat storage.
