cleaning
Always unplug the kettle from the mains supply socket and allow it to
completely cool down before cleaning or descaling it. Do not immerse the kettle,
power base or power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
• Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a damp cloth and then polish with a soft
dry cloth. Do not use steel wool pads or harsh/abrasive cleaners.
• Descale your kettle to keep it working efficiently. Use a proprietary descaling product
following the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Please note that when using the
BRITA
®
filter cartridge properly and regularly, you would need to descale your kettle
less often.
• When descaling the kettle using a descaling product, you must remove the BRITA
®
filter cartridge and the filter funnel. After descaling, thoroughly rinse the kettle then
refit the filter funnel and the BRITA
®
filter.
• Always follow the manufacturers instructions carefully when descaling the kettle.
• Each time the filter cartridge is replaced, wash the filter funnel in warm, soapy water,
rinse thoroughly and dry before preparing and fitting the new filter cartridge.
