water filter
13 Scale particles suspended in the water may give it a cloudy or greasy appearance.
The filter will prevent these particles going into your drink. If you see deposits on
the filter, clean it, otherwise the performance of your kettle will drop, your drinks
may contain scale, and the water inside the kettle may look cloudy.
cleaning the filter
14 Check your hands are free from soap, hand cream, or anything which might leave a
taint.
15 Switch the kettle off, and let it cool.
16 Open the lid.
17 Grip the top of the filter, and pull it gently up and out of the kettle.
18 Rinse the filter under a running tap while brushing with a soft brush.
19 Rinse the kettle, in case scale particles have fallen inside.
caution
don’t use the kettle without fitting the filter – it’ll spit boiling water
20 Lower the filter into the kettle, so that the slot in the bottom of the filter rests on the
mount below the spout, and the mounts on either side of the kettle grip the sides of
the filter.
21 Close the lid, and press down to lock it.
