IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces or hot
water. Use handles or knobs. Care
must be taken since burns can occur
from touching hot parts or from spilled
hot liquid.
3. To protect against fire, electric shock,
and personal injury, do not immerse
cord, plug, power base, or electric
kettle in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near
children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use
and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts
and before cleaning.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped
or damaged in any manner. Call our
toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or

Other Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household
use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This product is
vided with either a polarized (one
pro
wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug
to reduce the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized or
grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the plug by modifying the
plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have
an electrician replace the outlet.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter or touch hot surfaces,
including the stove.
10. Do not place electric kettle on or near
a hot gas or electric burner or in a
heated oven.
11. To disconnect electric kettle, turn any
control to OFF (O) and then remove
plug from wall outlet. Never pull on
the cord to remove the plug from an
outlet as this can damage the cord and
cause a risk of fire and electric shock.
12. Do not use appliance for other than
intended use.
13. Do not use for other than heating
water. Other liquids or food will
contaminate the interior and void
warranty.
14. Do not allow kettle to boil dry.
15. To avoid circuit overload, do not
operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
16. Scalding may occur if the lid is opened
during the heating cycle.
17. Be certain kettle lid is securely in place
during operation and when pouring
hot water. Do not use force when
placing lid on kettle.
The length of the cord used on this
appliance was selected to reduce the
hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping
over a longer cord. If a longer cord is
necessary, an approved extension cord
may be used. The electrical rating of
the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the rating of the appliance. If
the appliance is of the grounding type, the
extension cord must also be a grounding-
type, 3-wire cord. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
