Is the exterior safe to touch while it's hot?

How often should I descale the kettle?

Descaling frequency depends on your water hardness. Generally, it's recommended to descale every 1-2 months to maintain performance and prevent buildup.

What does the red illumination ring indicate?

The red illumination ring clearly indicates when the kettle is in operation (heating).

Does the kettle have an automatic shut-off feature?

Can I keep the water hot after boiling?

This model's primary function is rapid boiling to a selected temperature. It does not have a keep-warm function.

Troubleshooting

Kettle does not turn on.

Ensure the kettle is correctly seated on its 360° swivel base, and the base is plugged into a functional power outlet. Check that the power switch has been activated.

Water boiling is slow.

Check for significant mineral buildup inside the kettle. Descale the kettle according to the care instructions. Ensure the power outlet is providing adequate voltage.

Kettle shuts off before boiling.

This may indicate the dry-run protection has activated because the water level was too low. Ensure the kettle is filled with sufficient water. If the issue persists with adequate water, contact customer support.

Leaking from the spout.

Ensure the lid is properly closed. Check the spout for any blockages or damage. Pour slowly and steadily.

Display is not working.

Ensure the kettle is properly connected to the power base. Unplug the base, wait 30 seconds, and plug it back in. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the kettle on a stable, level surface near a power outlet.
  2. Remove all packaging materials.
  3. Before first use, fill the kettle to the maximum line, boil, and discard the water. Repeat this process 2-3 times to clean the interior.

Compatibility:

This kettle operates on standard household electrical outlets. Ensure your outlet can support the 3KW power requirement.

Care:

  • Exterior: Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Interior: Descale regularly to prevent mineral buildup. Use a commercial descaler or a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:2 ratio). Fill the kettle, let it sit for 1 hour (or boil and let sit), then discard the solution and rinse thoroughly. Boil fresh water and discard to remove any residual taste.
  • Lid and Spout: Ensure these areas are clean for optimal pouring and steam release.
