Check that the Valve Button is in the raised position, pull back
the Latch, and then open the hinged lid.
Fill the main Reservoir to the MAXIMUM level and close the lid using
a small downward pressure to ensure that the Latch engages fully.
Place the ECO Kettle on its Power Base and plug in the Power Cord
to a standard domestic power socket and switch on.
You are now ready to decide how much water you wish to boil –
from one cup to the full kettle!
To deliver water to the Boiling Chamber, press the Valve Button
until water flows into the Boiling Chamber. Watch the
water level rise in the front window until it reaches the required
mark.
When the valve button is released the valve closes and the
water in the Boiling Chamber is ready to boil.
Always ensure there is enough water to reach the Min Fill mark (approximately
1 cup = 200ml).
Never fill above the Max Boil mark on the Boiling Chamber window
as water may be ejected during boiling.
Switch the ECO Kettle ON by pressing down the On/Off Switch. The
Indicator Light will illuminate to indicate the ECO Kettle is ON.
When the water has boiled, the ECO Kettle will switch OFF automatically.
The water can be brought back to the boil by operating the On/Off
switch again. It may be necessary to wait a few seconds before the
switch can be reset.
Do not hold the switch in the ON position as this will damage
the mechanism.
You can simply stop the boiling process at any time by operating
the On/Off Switch to the OFF position.
If at any time you wish to boil all of the water in the kettle –
including the water contained in the reservoir – simply lock
the valve open by rotating the valve button in the direction of
the arrow when the button is depressed. Do not leave the valve in
the locked position as this will prevent your ECO Kettle from saving
energy and may make the lid seal less effective.
Generally, Valve Open is useful for larger quantities above 1 litre,
and Valve Closed is suitable for smaller quantities – 1 to
5 cups (200ml to 1 litre).
If the ECO Kettle is inadvertently operated without water
in the Boiling Chamber an automatic cut out will operate
to protect your ECO Kettle. This can simply be re-set as follows:
cool the heating element by releasing water from the reservoir into
the boiling chamber. Wait for a short time for the control to cool
sufficiently and the ECO Kettle will then be ready for use again.
And remember, unused water remaining in the Reservoir is available
for use next time – saving water, time and energy!
Top up the Reservoir to the Maximum level from time to time as necessary,
so that your ECO Kettle is always ready to boil the exact amount
of water you require.
To ensure the water in your ECO Kettle does not get stale, start
each day by discarding any remaining water and refilling with fresh.
