This will remove any dust or residue remaining from the manufacturing process. 5. Power "ON". Activate the power "ON" switch by gently lifting up until a "click" is heard (See Fig. 3. ) When the water has boiled, the kettle will automatically switch "OFF". NOTE: The kettle can be switched off at any time before the water boils, simply by lifting the kettle off the base. 6. Pour and Serve. Pour water out slowly. If you wish to reboil the water, you must lift the power "ON" button again. BOILING WATER 1. Open the Lid. HELPFUL HINTS Always use fresh, cold water for each boiling. If the kettle is accidentally switched "ON" without a sufficient water level, a boil-dry mechanism will automatically switch the kettle "OFF". Do not leave water standing in the kettle. NOTE: For your safety, it is recommended that the lid be closed on the kettle whenever kettle is in use. Push the release button on the handle and the lid opens. Fill the Kettle. Fill the kettle with as much fresh, cold water as you will need. [. . . ] We suggest use of a kettle descaler in order to dissolve these chalky deposits or scale. Follow the directions on the descaler package. If a commercial descaler is not available, fill the kettle with enough white vinegar to cover the bottom by about 1/2". You may need to repeat this several times with cooled vinegar to remove the calcium buildup completely. [. . . ]
