SCALE FILTER
Always boil water with the scale filter in place just behind
the spout
(D)
. Lime scale forms over time when water is
heated. Though scale is natural and harmless, it may produce
a powdery substance or mineral-like chunks that can get into
your hot beverages and affect the taste. While the concealed
heating element in this kettle is designed to help reduce scale
buildup, the filter helps prevent particles from pouring into
your beverage.
Care and Cleaning
This appliance contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service
personnel.
1. Before cleaning, be sure the base is unplugged and the kettle has cooled
completely. Empty any remaining water from the kettle.
2. Pull out the scale filter for cleaning. Wash the filter in warm soapy water and
rinse or place it in the utensil holder of the dishwasher.
3. Wash the inside of the kettle with soapy water and rinse. NEVER IMMERSE THE
KETTLE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS or place in a dishwasher.
4. Wipe the exterior of the kettle and base with a damp cloth or sponge and dry.
The concealed heating element at the bottom of the interior may discolor. This
will not affect performance. Do not use abrasive soaps, cleansers, or scouring
pads.
5. Over time, the kettle may heat up but will not boil, depending on your use
and the hardness of the water in your area. When this happens, it is time for
descaling. Use a scale/lime remover and follow its manufacturer's directions.
