Taurus Cordless Electric Kettle

1. Important Safety Information

Please read all instructions carefully before using your Taurus Cordless Electric Kettle. Keep this manual for future reference.

• Electrical Safety: Do not immerse the kettle, power base, or cord in water or other liquids. Ensure the voltage indicated on the appliance matches your local mains voltage before connecting.
• Hot Surfaces: The kettle's exterior, especially the glass body, will become very hot during and after operation. Always use the handle to lift and pour. Avoid touching hot surfaces.
• Steam Hazard: Be cautious of steam escaping from the spout or lid, especially during boiling. Keep hands and face away.
• Water Only: Only fill the kettle with water. Do not add milk, coffee, tea, or other liquids, as this may damage the appliance or create a safety hazard.
• Boil-Dry Protection: The kettle is equipped with boil-dry protection, which automatically switches off the heating element if the kettle is accidentally switched on without water or if it boils dry. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool down before refilling with cold water.
• Auto Shut-Off: The kettle will automatically switch off once the water has boiled.
• Children and Pets: Keep the appliance out of reach of children and pets. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children.
• Stable Surface: Always place the kettle on a firm, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from the edge of the countertop.

3. Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the kettle and its power base from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, fill the kettle with clean water to the MAX level. Boil the water, then discard it. Repeat this process 2-3 times to remove any manufacturing residues.
3. Position the Base: Place the power base on a stable, flat, dry, and heat-resistant surface near a power outlet. Ensure the cord is not dangling where it can be tripped over.

4. Operating Instructions

1. Fill the Kettle: Press the lid release button to open the lid. Fill the kettle with the desired amount of fresh, cold water. Do not fill below the MIN mark or above the MAX mark.
2. Close the Lid: Close the lid firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure the lid is securely closed before boiling to prevent hot water from splashing out.
3. Place on Base: Place the kettle securely onto the power base. The kettle can be placed in any direction on the 360° swivel base.
4. Switch On: Plug the power cord into a suitable wall outlet. Press the On/Off switch down to the 'On' position. The LED indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the kettle is heating.
5. Boiling Process: The water will begin to heat. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, the kettle will automatically switch off, and the LED indicator light will extinguish.
6. Pouring: Carefully lift the kettle from its base using the handle. Pour the hot water slowly and steadily.
7. Re-boiling: If you need to re-boil, wait a few moments for the internal thermostat to reset before pressing the On/Off switch again.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning

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

• Always unplug the kettle and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the kettle and the power base with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface.
• Interior Cleaning: For the interior, rinse with clean water. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials inside the kettle.
• Descaling: Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. This can affect performance.
• To descale, fill the kettle with a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts water. Let it stand for at least 30 minutes, or boil the mixture if the limescale is severe.
• After descaling, empty the kettle and rinse thoroughly several times with fresh water to remove any vinegar residue.
• Storage: When not in use, store the kettle and its base in a dry place. You can wrap the power cord around the cord storage area under the base.
