Troubleshooting
Kettle does not turn on.
Ensure the kettle is correctly placed on its base and the base is plugged into a working power outlet. Check that the power switch is in the 'on' position and that the power indicator light is illuminated. If the issue persists, try a different power outlet.
Kettle switches off before boiling.
This may indicate the boil-dry protection has activated. Ensure there is sufficient water in the kettle (above the minimum level indicated by the water level window). Allow the kettle to cool completely before refilling and attempting to boil again.
Water is leaking from the spout.
Ensure the lid is fully closed and the kettle is not filled beyond the MAX line. Check that the spout is clear of any obstructions. If leaking persists, contact customer support.
Water tastes unusual or has white deposits.
This is likely due to limescale buildup. Follow the descaling instructions in the 'Care and Cleaning' section. Ensure the removable filter is clean and correctly inserted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Place the kettle on a stable, flat surface near a power outlet.
- Before first use, fill the kettle to the maximum level (`MAX`) with fresh water, boil, and discard the water. Repeat this process twice to remove any manufacturing residues.
- Ensure the kettle is properly seated on its 360-degree base.
Compatibility:
- Designed to operate on standard household electrical outlets (voltage specification typically found on the product base or power cord).
- Ensure the power cord is fully extended and in good condition.
Care and Cleaning:
- Exterior: Wipe the silver exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the finish.
- Interior: Regularly descale the kettle, especially in hard water areas. Remove the lid and the removable filter. Fill the kettle with a mixture of one part white vinegar to two parts water, or use a commercial kettle descaler. Let it stand for 30-60 minutes (or as per descaler instructions), then boil the mixture. Discard the hot liquid and rinse the kettle thoroughly with fresh water. Boil a full kettle of fresh water and discard it to remove any lingering taste.
- Filter: Rinse the removable filter under running water after each use and during descaling. Ensure it is dry before reinserting.
