Press "lid open" button and fill kettle with water. Be careful
to not exceed the "max" marker. Set kettle on base, plug into
outlet, and turn the switch on. It will illuminate indicating
activity. Set the temperature dial to maximum position to
produce boiling water for black tea. To make green tea, set the
dial within the green range of color. Place at the beginning
of the green range for the delicate Japanese teas and further along the range for the heartier Chinese
teas. Ideal water temperature being subjective, let your taste buds guide you in selecting an optimal
setting.
