amounts are observed. Close the lid and wipe excess water off outside of ket-
tle. The lid must be in place and closed at all times when using the kettle. This
is necessary for the automatic shut off mechanism to function and to avoid con-
tact with hot steam when grasping the handle. Remove or replace the lid only

bottom of the kettle. Do not tip the kettle as you place it over the connector.The
