CLEANING &
MAINTENANCE
• Unplug your kettle and allow it to cool before
cleaning.
• Wipe the kettle and base of unit with a soft,
damp cloth.
• Be sure that the electric kettle socket is kept dry.
• Dry all parts after every use.
• Never immerse kettle or power base in water.
• Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorised service representative.
REMOVABLE SCALE FILTER
• This kettle features a mesh filter to remove scale
deposits and clean water.
• The filter can be removed by grasping it and
pulling upward. Run under hot water and rub
with a clean cloth or brush. Replace the filter; it
will snap back into place.
DECALCIFICATION
• Decalcification refers to removing mineral
deposits, which may form in the interior and on
heating plate of the kettle over time. This can
result in discolouration that can look the colour
of rust. Please note this is NOT rust, the interior
of the kettle is stainless steel and will not rust.
• To get the best performance from your Signature
Kettle, decalcify your unit from time to time.
Frequency will depend on the hardness of your
tap water and how often you use your kettle.
• We suggest using a kettle descaler in order
to dissolve these deposits or scale. Follow the
directions on the descaler package.
• If a commercial descaler is not available, fill
the kettle with enough white vinegar to cover
the bottom by about 1cm. Heat the vinegar
to a boil. Repeat this with cooled vinegar until
all deposits are removed. When the descaling
process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse
out several times with clean water.
