The kettle offers a 1.7 litre capacity and a 2400 W heating element, a water level indicator, overheat protection and a removable limescale filter in the spout. The body mixes plastic and stainless steel and is finished in pastel blue for a distinctive kitchen accent. Cordless use on a 360° swivel base and a keep-warm function add convenience for regular tea or beverage preparation.

How to use

Fill the kettle to the required level using the water level indicator and place it on the 360° base. Select the desired temperature using the thermostat or preset temperature controls, then press start. The kettle will heat to the chosen temperature and either automatically switch off at boiling or maintain the selected temperature until the keep-warm function times out. Remove the kettle from its base for pouring; the removable filter helps reduce limescale in the spout. Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning and follow routine descaling as needed.

Usage recommendations

For optimal flavour with delicate teas, choose a lower temperature setting (for example 70–80°C for many green teas) and use the keep-warm feature sparingly to avoid prolonged reheating. Descale regularly depending on water hardness and empty the kettle after prolonged non-use to preserve the appliance and water quality.
