Temperature control modes
How an electric kettle lets the user control the water temperature: a single setting that boils to 100 °C, a set of discrete preset temperatures (e.g. 70/80/90/100 °C for different teas), or a fully variable target set to the degree. A token category recurring across kettles (L11); growing (L13).
