Remove any packaging and promotional material from your kettle and position it on a stable, secure, dry and level work surface away from the edge.
Before connecting to a power source, make sure your mains supply voltage is the same as the one indicated on the appliance. Connect the plug to a suitable power outlet and make sure that the power cord does not overhang the work surface. Excess power cord can be stored in the power base.
Remove the kettle from the power base and open the lid. Fill your kettle to the maximum mark and close the lid.
Place your kettle back onto the power base. Switch your kettle on, allow it to boil then discard the water. Repeat twice. This will remove any residue left over from the manufacturing process.
If this kettle is filled above the maximum level mark, hot water may be ejected from the spout during boiling. Beware of steam coming from the spout or lid especially during refilling. Never open the lid when the kettle is boiling.
You can even set a temperature that is lower than the current temperature while the kettle is cooling, and the kettle will let you know when it is ready! For example, if the kettle has boiled and is indicating 100 degrees you can press (for example) 90 degrees and its light will be permanently on. When the water has cooled to 90 degrees your kettle will play a short tune and the illumination will flash to indicate the water is ready.
If the kettle jug is removed from the base and you attempt to use the base unit the kettle will sound an error tone, and the base unit lights will pulse 3 times. To use the kettle place the jug back onto the base.
This function allows you to mute all sounds.
The mute function can be activated by holding down the stop button for 3 seconds. There will be a sound after 3 seconds to confirm the mute setting has been activated.
To deactivate the mute function, hold the stop button for 3 seconds. There will be a sound to confirm the mute setting has been deactivated.

A Breville kettle, if used correctly, is a very energy efficient device. Why not try some of these energy saving tips:
Only boil the water you need. Overfilling your kettle by one cup is the equivalent to using an energy saving light bulb for one hour!
It is not always necessary to re-boil your kettle. For example, one litre of water will still be at 90°C after five minutes - the perfect temperature for a cup of coffee.
Only heat the water to the temperature required for your chosen beverage.
If the kettle is operated with insufficient water a built-in fail-safe device will automatically switch it off.
Unplug your kettle and allow it to cool. When it has cooled down sufficiently the safety device will reset itself.
Always unplug the kettle from the mains supply socket and allow it to completely cool down before cleaning or descaling it. Do not immerse the kettle, power base or power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
Before removing or refitting the filter, switch off the kettle and empty it. Allow it to cool completely, then unplug the power base from the mains supply socket. Never operate the kettle without the filter fitted.
