Descaling
IMPORTANT: As this appliance is
fitted with a concealed element, it
must be descaled regularly. The
frequency of descaling depends on
usage and the hardness of the
water in your area.
Excessive scale can cause the
appliance to switch off before
boiling and may damage the
element, invalidating the warranty.
It is essential that regular descaling
takes place.
Remove hard scale using a
proprietary descaling product
suitable for stainless steel, glass or
plastic.
For stainless steel kettles, please
follow the instructions carefully.
Alternatively, use citric acid crystals
(available from most pharmacies)
as follows:
1
Fill the appliance

full, boil, then
unplug the appliance (remove the
cordless kettle from the base unit)
and stand it in an empty sink or
bowl.
2
Gradually add 50gm of citric acid
crystals to the water, then leave the
kettle to stand. Do not use a more
concentrated solution.
3
As soon as the effervescence
subsides, empty the appliance and
rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
4
Wipe the outside of the appliance
thoroughly with a damp cloth to
remove all traces of acid which
may damage the finish.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the
electrical connections are
completely dry before using the
appliance.
