Cleaning Your Appliance
• Unplug the appliance and allow kettle to cool down before cleaning.
• Clean the outside of the appliance, including the base with a soft damp cloth.
• Clean the inside of the kettle regularly with a mild dish cleanser or descaler.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers.
• After cleaning, dry the kettle and the base thoroughly.
When mineral scale builds up in your kettle, it can affect temperature
consistency and slow down heating time. To ensure optimum performance,
Bonavita recommends descaling the kettle when mineral build-up is visible
inside the kettle.
Note: Vinegar many not effectively descale the kettle and can be difficult to
thoroughly rinse. Vinegar may also leave behind an odor that could affect
future uses. Bonavita recommends using a descaler.
HOW TO USE DESCALER:
1. Follow the instructions on the descaler.
2. Pour into kettle.
3. Bring solution to boil.
4. Let vessel cool for 15 minutes, then discard solution.
5. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
STORAGE
Clean and dry the appliance before storing. Store the kettle in its box or in a
clean, dry place. Never wrap the power cord around the kettle. Always use the
cord storage on the bottom of the base.
