- Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
- Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the heating cycle.

Setup
- Unpack the Kettle: Carefully remove all packaging materials, stickers, and accessories from the kettle and its base.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, fill the kettle with fresh water to the MAX level. Boil the water, then discard it. Repeat this process 2-3 times to remove any manufacturing residues.
- Cord Management: Adjust the length of the power cord by winding it under the base and wedging the cord into the designated notch for a tidy countertop.
- Placement: Place the power base on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, away from water splashes and other sources of heat.

Operating Instructions
- Fill the Kettle: Open the lid by pressing the button on the handle. Fill the kettle with the desired amount of fresh water. Ensure the water level is between the 'MIN' and 'MAX' marks on the clear water window. Close the lid securely.
- Place on Power Base: Place the kettle firmly onto its cordless 360° power base.
- Turn On: Plug the power base into a suitable electrical outlet. Press the ON/OFF switch located on the handle downwards. The indicator light on the base will illuminate, signaling that the kettle is heating.
- Boiling Process: The kettle will begin to heat the water. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, the kettle will automatically switch off, and the indicator light will extinguish. This kettle also features boil-dry protection, which will automatically shut off the kettle if it is accidentally switched on without sufficient water.
- Pouring: Carefully lift the kettle from its base using the cool-touch handle. Pour the hot water slowly and steadily.
- Re-boiling: If you need to re-boil water, ensure there is sufficient water in the kettle and press the ON/OFF switch again.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Always unplug the kettle and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Hand wash only the interior of the kettle; do not immerse the power base in water.
- Removable Filter: The kettle features a removable mesh filter. Periodically remove and rinse the filter under running water to remove any scale buildup. Reinsert the filter securely before next use.
- Descaling: Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. To descale, fill the kettle with a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar (or a commercial descaling solution). Bring to a boil and let it stand for at least 30 minutes (or as per descaler instructions). Discard the solution and rinse the kettle thoroughly several times with fresh water.

Troubleshooting
