Your kettle will boil and switch off automatically. To re-
boil, wait a few seconds - the on/off switch needs
time to reset.
Note - To interrupt the boiling ensure that
the switch is in the off position before
removing from the powerbase.
G
If you experience problems with your kettle
switching on and off during use or switching
off before boiling, check that the flat
element is free from scale - see
“descaling”.
G
Your kettle is fitted with a filter to hold back limescale
particles.

If you find drops of water under your kettle, don’t
worry - it is just condensation.

If you switch on with too little water, your kettle will
cut out automatically. Switch off, remove from the
powerbase and let it cool down before re-filling. When

descaling
G
Regular descaling of the flat element will improve the
performance of your kettle. If the kettle is not
descaled regularly the build up of limescale may result
in the following:
G
problems may be experienced with the kettle
switching on and off during use or switching off
before boiling.
G
the kettle may take longer to boil.
G
the flat element may be damaged.
Please note: Failure to descale your kettle may invalidate
your guarantee.
G
When limescale starts to build up on the heating
element, buy a suitable descaler and descale your
kettle. After descaling, boil with fresh water several
times and discard. Clean any descaler off the kettle -
it can damage the parts.
G
Some regions of the country have chalky water. This
makes boiled water look cloudy and leaves a deposit
on the side of the kettle. This is normal but can be
removed with regular cleaning.
G
Alternatively, to reduce limescale build up, use filtered
water to fill your kettle.
