Instructions for use
The recommendations for care and use apply to all Le Creuset kettles.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove labels and all protective packaging before use.
Wash kettle in hot water then fill with clean water and bring to the boil and discard this water.
HEAT SETTINGS
Match kettle base to size of of ring/burner.
DO NOT
Never heat up an empty kettle.
Never fill beyond level marked on the outside of the kettle.
Don't tip kettle upside down when pouring as water may spill from the lid.
Don't leave kettle simmering for long periods on any heat source– it may boil dry which will damage the base enamel.
Don't bang kettle down onto hob or work surface. Repeated knocks may damage the enamel.
RECOMMENDATIONS
We recommend using an oven glove or cloth when opening the whistle as it may be hot.
Avoid leaving water in kettle when not in use, a build up of scale may occur and reduce efficiency.
A gentle de–scaler may be used periodically, if required.
Use on Aga/Rayburn stoves
Do not leave kettle on simmering plate– always use fast plate.
If plate has been open, close to allow plate to recover heat before heating kettle.
