TROUBLESHOOTING
KETTLE SWITCHES OFF BEFORE BOILING WATER
If your kettle switches off before water boiling, you need to descale the kettle.
Should you boil the kettle without sufficient water, the device will cut out/switch off
automatically. Switch on the kettle again as outlined in the paragraph below.
SAFETY CUT-OUT DEVICE
Allow the kettle to cool down for 5 minutes before refilling it with water. Turn the ON/
OFF switch into ON position, after 15 minutes the kettle will switch on automatically
and begin to boil water.
STRANGE TASTE FROM THE WATER
Usually a plastic taste appears after using the device for the first time. Filling , boiling
and emptying the kettle a few times, should take away the taste.
If plastic taste does not disappear, fill the kettle with water up to “Max” mark and add
2 teaspoons of Bicarbonate of Soda. Boil and pour out this water.
LIMESCALE DEPOSITS
Periodic descaling will maintain the best performance of the kettle. Descale interval
depends on the hardness of your local water supply. To remove limescale use a suitable
propriety kettle de-scaler which is available from leading supermarkets, department
stores and hardware stores.
