manual abstract
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13 amp capacity.Should this plug not fit the socket outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug, following the procedure outlined below. Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly disposed of, (having removed the fuse) and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent danger. If the plug is a moulded-on type the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover. N.B. We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be switched off when the machine is not in use. IMPORTANT: the wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: GREEN AND YELLOW EARTH BLUE NEUTRAL BROWN LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size. Only 13amp replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to B.S. 1362 should be fitted. This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the suppression of radio interference.

Refer to page 7. “Removing the scale filter” • Fill the kettle and boil. • The boiled water should be discarded and the kettle rinsed out with cold water. This procedure should be carried out three times, to remove any manufacturing dust, etc. • After the kettle has been rinsed out, re-fit the filter (fig. 3). 21 3 IN USE Power base with 360° access With the specially designed power base and central connector, you can now set the kettle on the base at any angle, from any position. • Release cord from storage base and adjust length by winding around the base to give the correct cord length to reach the plug socket to be used (fig. 4). • Do not leave loose cord hanging over the edge of work surfaces. Filling • Remove the kettle from the base unit before filling. • Open lid and fill kettle to desired level. Do not fill with less than 0,25 litre of water to prevent the kettle running dry while operating; misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element. Do not fill with more than 1,7 litres of water (up to the MAX indication located inside the kettle) (fig. 5). If the kettle is overfilled, there is a risk that boiling water may be ejected causing burns. 5 4 CORD EXIT MIN 0.25 litres 5 MAX 1.7 litres Kettle UK 29-06-2001 8:33 Pagina 6 Switching on • Plug the power base into the mains socket. • Place kettle on power base. • Press the ON/OFF switch down (fig. 6) to switch the kettle on. • The pilot lights will switch on. • The kettle will automatically switch off once the water is boiled (the ON/OFF switch will click upwards and the lights will go out). • To turn the kettle off before the water boils, you may move the 0 I 6 ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position, or simply lift the kettle from its base - it will switch off and the switch will return to the OFF position automatically.
