cooking.

boiling. The Keep W arm feature can also be turned off at any time if
no longer required.

temperature at approximately 70˚C after boiling.

Off button again. The light in the button will turn off, showing that
the feature is no longer operating.

can be left with the Keep Warm function on for up to 12 hours.
IF THE KETTLE DOES BOIL DRY
If the kettle is operated in accordance with instructions for use, it is
unlikely that the kettle will boil dry . However , in the event that the
kettle does boil dry , it is protected by a boil dry , fail-safe device which
will switch the kettle off automatically on sensing a boil dry situation
and keep it switched off until the kettle is refilled with at least the
minimum amount of water . Always allow the kettle to cool for half an
hour before reuse if the kettle has boiled dry .
If the kettle boils dry when the Keep W arm feature is activated, the
kettle body will remain warm until switched off and allowed to cool.
