Troubleshooting
Kettle won't turn on or boil water.
Ensure the power base is securely plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Check that the kettle is correctly seated on the 360° power base and that the power switch is in the 'on' position. If boil dry protection has activated, allow the kettle to cool down before attempting to boil again.
Water takes a long time to boil.
Check if there is limescale buildup inside the kettle. Descale the kettle regularly, especially in hard water areas. Ensure you are not overfilling the kettle beyond the maximum fill line, as this can increase boiling time.
Kettle switches off before boiling.
This could be due to excessive limescale buildup around the heating element or temperature sensor. Descale the kettle thoroughly. Also, ensure the lid is properly closed, as an open lid can affect the auto-shutoff mechanism.
Kettle is leaking.
Check that the pull-off lid is correctly and firmly seated. Ensure you are not filling the kettle beyond the maximum water level indicator, as overfilling can cause water to escape during boiling or pouring. Inspect the 'perfect pour' spout for any obstructions or damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove the kettle and its base from the packaging.

- Cord Management: Unwind the power cord to the required length and utilize the cord storage feature beneath the base to keep excess cord tidy.

Compatibility
This kettle is compatible with standard household electrical outlets. Ensure your power supply matches the voltage specified on the kettle's rating label.
Care
- Exterior Cleaning: To maintain the stylish mocha brown finish, wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the surface.
- Interior Cleaning/Descaling: Limescale can build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. Regular descaling is recommended to maintain performance and extend the kettle's lifespan. Use a proprietary descaling solution suitable for kettles, following the product's instructions carefully. Rinse thoroughly after descaling.
- Storage: When not in use, ensure the kettle is cool and dry before storing. The cord storage in the base helps keep your countertop neat.
