FAQs
What is the capacity of the kettle?
The kettle has a capacity of 1.7 litres, which can serve up to 7 cups.
Can the toaster handle thick slices of bread?
The toaster is designed for standard bread slices. Very thick or large slices may not fit optimally, and results may vary.
How do I descale the kettle?
Fill the kettle with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:2 ratio) or use a commercial descaler. Boil the mixture, let it stand for a few minutes, then discard and rinse thoroughly. Alternatively, use the rapid boil function to heat water and add descaler as per product instructions.
What do the Defrost, Reheat, and Cancel buttons do?
The 'Defrost' button toasts frozen bread, 'Reheat' warms up already toasted bread without further browning, and 'Cancel' stops the toasting cycle immediately.
Is the kettle base able to swivel?
Yes, the kettle comes with a 360° cordless base, allowing for easy placement and lifting from any angle.
How often should I clean the toaster's crumb tray?
It is recommended to empty the crumb tray after every few uses, or whenever it appears full, to maintain performance and prevent potential hazards.
What is the warranty period for this set?
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's official documentation for specific warranty details, as this can vary.
Troubleshooting
Kettle not switching on
Ensure the kettle is correctly seated on its base and the base is plugged into a working power outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on.
Kettle is boiling slowly or stopping mid-cycle
The kettle may require descaling. Follow the care instructions for descaling. Ensure the power supply is adequate.
Toaster not toasting evenly
Ensure bread slices are centered in the slots. Try adjusting the browning setting. Clean the crumb tray as it may be affecting heat distribution.
Toaster elements not heating
Check that the toaster is plugged into a working power outlet and that the lever is fully depressed. If the issue persists, the appliance may need servicing.
Excessive smoke from toaster
This can happen during the first few uses. If it continues, ensure the crumb tray is clean and not overflowing. Reduce the browning setting if toast is burning.
