SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - Your electric kettle needs no special care other than
cleaning. See warranty section in this booklet for service details. Do not attempt to repair it
yourself. For household use only. WARNING: To prevent personal injury or property damaged
caused by fire, always unplug this and other appliances when not in use.
Electric Cord Statement - CAUTION: Your electric kettle has a short cord as a safety
precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming
entangled with the cord. Do not allow children to be near or use the electric kettle without close
adult supervision. If you must use a longer cord set or an extension cord when using this electric
kettle, the cord must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over the edge of a countertop, tabletop
or surface area where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. To prevent electric shock,
personal injury or fire, the electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same or more
than the wattage of the electric kettle (wattage is stamped on underside of base).
To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.
Important Safety Instructions - This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider that the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do
not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
