Using this tea kettle is a breeze. Just lift the glass knob to open the lid, pour water inside, and place it on the stove. Turn on the heat and wait for the water to boil. When you hear the bubbling sound, your water is ready. Here are some things to keep in mind. Don't overfill the kettle, as it might cause water to spill when boiling. Only use it on stoves that are suitable for enameled steel cookware. To keep your kettle in top shape, wash it with mild dish soap and warm water after each use. Dry it thoroughly to prevent rust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the enamel finish.
