SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS
For your protection, this unit is equipped with
a 3-conductor cord set that has a molded
3-prong grounding-type plug, and should
be used in combination with a properly
connected grounding-type outlet as shown in
Figure A.
A short power-supply
cord is provided
to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an
adapter, shown in Figure B, may be obtained
so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with
a 3-prong plug. As shown in Figure C, the
adapter must be grounded by attaching its
grounding lug under the screw of the outlet
cover plate.
Longer extension
cords are available and
may be used if care is
exercised in their use.
If a long extension cord
is used, the marked
electrical rating of the
extension cord must
be at least as great
as the electrical rating
of the appliance. The
extension cord should
be a grounding-type
3-wire cord, and the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the
NOTE: Do not remove the grounding prong.
CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must
be determined that the outlet cover plate
screw is properly grounded. If in doubt,
consult a licensed electrician. Never use an
adapter unless you are sure it is properly
grounded.
Note: Use of an adapter is not permitted in
Canada.

BRIEF HISTORY OF TEA
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
1. Easy Grip Lid with Stay-Cool Handle
2. Stay-Cool, Soft-Grip Handle
The origins of tea can be traced back nearly
5,000 years to a legendary emperor of China,
an herbalist. It is believed that leaves from
twigs he was burning floated into a kettle of
boiling water. Thus tea was born and soon
flourished throughout southern Asia. As trade
routes expanded, tea made its way to the
West, and today is enjoyed around the world.

THE HEALTH BENEFITS
OF TEA
6. Water Window with Water Level
Markings
Many teas are brimming with healthful
benefits like natural vitamins, minerals,
and antioxidants. Drinking any tea rehydrates
the body, and its antioxidants may offer
protections against a wide range of diseases.
A cup of tea can be a gentle start to the
day, a soothing mid-afternoon break, or a
comfortable way to unwind and relax each
evening – it all adds up to a healthy mind,
body, and spirit.

BEFORE USING FOR THE
FIRST TIME
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Before using your Cuisinart® Cordless Electric
Kettle for the first time, we recommend rinsing
the kettle with water to remove any dust or
residue remaining from the manufacturing
process.

1. Remove the lid from the kettle and add
as much fresh cold water as you need,
watching the water level in the water
window. To avoid boil-over, do not fill
past 1.7L Max fill line.

3. Make sure the kettle is placed on the
power base, then plug in the base.
4. Power the kettle on by pressing the
On/Off switch down until a click is heard.
When the water has boiled the kettle will
automatically switch off.
r Never immerse kettle or power base in
water.
Maintenance: Any other servicing should
be performed by an authorized service
representative.
NOTE: The kettle can be switched off at
any time by pushing the Power switch up.
5. Serve and enjoy. If you wish to bring
water to a boil again, depress the power
switch once more.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to removing mineral
deposits, which may form in the interior of the
kettle and may result in discoloration.
HELPFUL HINTS
To get the best performance from your kettle,
decalcify it from time to time. Frequency will
depend on the hardness of your water and
how often you use the unit.

without a sufficient water level, a boil-dry
safety mechanism will automatically switch
the kettle off.
We suggest using a kettle descaler in order to
dissolve these deposits or scale. Follow the
directions on the descaler package.

while heating water.
Alternatively, fill the kettle with enough white
vinegar to cover the bottom by about ½ inch.
Heat the vinegar to a boil. Repeat this with
cooled vinegar until all deposits are removed.
When complete, empty the kettle and rinse
with clean water.

BEFORE RETURNING YOUR CUISINART®

prove to be defective within the warranty period,
we will repair or, if we think necessary, replace it. To
obtain warranty service, please call our Customer
Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190 or write
to: Cuisinart, 7811 North Glen Harbor Blvd.Glendale,
AZ 85307. To facilitate the speed and accuracy
of your return, enclose $10.00 for shipping and
handling. (California residents need only supply a
proof of purchase and should call 1-800-726-0190
for shipping instructions.) Please be sure to include
your return address, description of the product’s
defect, product serial number, and any other
information pertinent to the return. Please pay by
check or money order. NOTE: For added protection
and secure handling of any Cuisinart® product
that is being returned, we recommend you use a
traceable, insured delivery service. Cuisinart cannot
be held responsible for in-transit damage or for
packages that are not delivered to us. Lost and/or
damaged products are not covered under warranty.
Your Cuisinart® Cordless Electric Kettle has been
manufactured to the strictest specifications and has
been designed for use only in 120 volt outlets and
only with authorized accessories and replacement
parts. This warranty expressly excludes any defects
or damages caused by attempted use of this unit
with a converter, as well as use with accessories,
replacement parts or repair service other than those
authorized by Cuisinart. This warranty does not
cover any damage caused by accident, misuse,
shipment or other than ordinary household use. This
warranty excludes all incidental or consequential
damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of these damages, so these exclusions
may not apply to you. You may also have other
rights, which vary from state to state.
This warranty is available to consumers only. You are
a consumer if you own a Cuisinart® Cordless Electric
Kettle that was purchased at retail for personal,
family or household use. Except as otherwise
required under applicable law, this warranty is not
available to retailers or other commercial purchasers
or owners. We warrant that your Cuisinart® Cordless
Electric Kettle will be free of defects in materials and
workmanship under normal home use for 3 years
from the date of original purchase.
We recommend that you visit our website,
complete your product registration. However,
product registration does not eliminate the need
for the consumer to maintain the original proof of
purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits.
In the event that you do not have proof of purchase
date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty
will be the date of manufacture.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service,
California residents have the option of returning a
non conforming product (A) to the store where it
was purchased or (B) to another retail store that
sells Cuisinart® products of the same type. The
retail store shall then, according to its preference,
either repair the product, refer the consumer to an
independent repair facility, replace the product,
or refund the purchase price less the amount
directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage
of the product. If neither of the above two options
results in the appropriate relief to the consumer,
the consumer may then take the product to an
independent repair facility, if service or repair can be
economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the
consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost
of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for
nonconforming products under warranty. California
residents may also, according to their preference,
return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart
for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling
our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-
0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the
repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for
such nonconforming products under warranty.
Important: If the nonconforming product is to
be serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s
Authorized Service Center, please remind the
servicer to call our Consumer Service Center at
1-800-726-0190 to ensure that the problem is
properly diagnosed, the product is serviced with the
correct parts, and to ensure that the product is still
under warranty.
