5.1 Keep-warm function
The "KEEP WARM" function is meant to keep the boiled water warm for a long
period of time. Set the desired temperature using the "+" and "-" buttons. Press
for the "KEEP WARM" button to start. The kettle activates the keep warm function
for 30 minutes and maintains the configured temperature after reaching the target
temperature. This is indicated by the (Keep warm) symbol shown in the display
above the temperature display.
5.2 Toggling between °C / °F
Press and hold the "KEEP WARM" button to change between °C and °F.
6. Descaling and cleaning
•
We recommend to descale the kettle at regular intervals depending upon the
intensity of use.
•
Before cleaning, pull out the power plug and wait until the appliance cools
down completely.
•
Please use only commercially available descaling agents based on citric acid to
descale the water container.
•
For the appropriate dosage, please refer to the specifications on the package
or insert of the descaling agent.
•
The heating plate should not be specifically cleaned. Do not use any hard
objects on the heating plate.
•
Use only a damp cloth for cleaning the kettle externally.
•
Do not use any abrasive items like wire brush or steel sponge.
•
Never use any cleaning agents which may corrode the surface or present a
health risk if consumed!
•
Never immerse the appliance, the power cable or the plug in water or in any
other liquid to prevent risk of electric shock.
•
For appliances with anti-scale filter in front of the pouring opening, proceed
as follows: Open the lid and press the plastic tab of the anti-scale filter down
to remove the filter. Rinse the filter thoroughly using warm water and then
replace it back into its position. When replacing, ensure that the anti-scale
filter sits properly in the guide rail.
Use a quick descaler for particularly stubborn limescale deposits or signs of flash
rust. Once limescale is formed, iron and oxidised iron particles get deposited in
the lime layer. This often produces a reddish colour giving the impression that
the actual material is rusting. However, if it is not promptly taken care of, this
rust caused by the oxidised iron particles in the lime can actually attack the kettle
material.
