Descaling
Due to the natural occurrence of calcium in water, limescale deposits may form in
the kettle after some use. Limescale deposits might lengthen the time needed for
water to boil. For descaling, use a mixture of water and white vinegar (acetic acid) or
a special descaling agent that can be purchased at most supermarkets.
1. Mix 100 ml of white vinegar (12%, not regular vinegar) with 300 ml cold water or
follow the directions included with the descaling agent.
2. Pour the mixture into the kettle and turn it on. Boil up the mixture 2 times, and then
pour it out.
3. In order to remove the last remnants of limescale and descaling agent, the kettle
should be filled to the max mark with fresh cold water. Turn the kettle on and let it
come to the boil.
4. Pour out the water and repeat this process 3 times. The kettle is now ready to be
used again.
The kettle should be descaled after 2–3 months of daily use or whenever it has visible
limescale deposits.
