Troubleshooting

Kettle is slow to boil

Ensure the kettle is placed directly over the heat source and that the flame or heat output is adequate. Check for any obstructions around the base.

Handle feels unstable

Ensure the handle is fully extended and locked into place before lifting. Check for any damage to the hinge mechanism.

Discoloration on the exterior
