Care and maintenance
• Always unplug the appliance from the wall socket before cleaning.
• Never submerge the kettle in water.
• Clean by wiping with a soft cloth moistened with water and possibly a little
washing-up liquid.
• Avoid using solvents and abrasive cleaning agents. Dry carefully after cleaning.
• Clean the filter located in the spout of the kettle regularly. The filter can be lifted up
when the lid is open. Rinse the filter in warm running water and let it dry.
Slide the filter back into the grooves in the spout.
Descaling
Because of 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 1 dl of white vinegar (not regular vinegar) with 3 dl cold water or follow the
directions included with the descaling agent.
2. Pour the mixture into the kettle and turn it on. Let the mixture boil twice.
Thereafter, pour the mixture away.
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 boil.
4. Pour out the water and repeat this process 3 times. The kettle is now ready to
use again.
The kettle should be descaled after 2-3 months daily use or whenever it has visible
limescale deposits.
