The kettle comes complete with boil-dry protection, an on/off switch with indicator light and a hinged lid.
The kettle also contains two plastic cups that can be conveniently stored in the kettle.
USING THE KETTLE
The kettle should be used exclusively for boiling water; never use it with other liquids or ingredients.
First boil a full kettle of water to clean the kettle and discard this water.
Always fill the kettle between the minimum and maximum level markers.
To turn the kettle on, plug it in and press the on button ( I ). The indicator lamp will be illuminated. When
the water boils, the kettle switches itself off automatically and the indicator light goes out. You can also
turn the kettle off by hand by pressing the off button (O).
If the kettle is accidentally switched on when empty, the boil-dry protection will automatically switch it
off. Adding water will then cool the boil-dry protection mechanism enabling you to use the kettle as nor-
mal.
NOTE: Do not fill the kettle higher than the MAX level indicator or boiling water may spray out.
CLEANING
FIRST REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE SOCKET AND ALLOW THE KETTLE TO COOL.
The outside of the PRINCESS ROYAL KETTLE can be wiped down with a damp cloth.
DESCALING
Use a descaling agent suitable for household appliances, such as coffee machines. Follow the instructions
on the packaging. Do not switch the kettle on during descaling, but allow the agent to soak in while the
kettle is still cool. Rinse the kettle several times with clean water.
PRINCESS TIPS
