clean any part of the kettle with harsh or abrasive cleaners.
•
Do not submerge any part of the base, mains cable or kettle in water
or any other liquids.
Decalcification of your kettle
•
The frequency of the decalcification depends on the hardness of the
water in your area and how often the appliance is used
•
If the kettle switches off before it boils or has a white deposit building
up inside then it probably needs to be decalcified.
•
Do not use vinegar but a commercially available decalcification agent;
carefully follow the quantities recommended in the instructions of the
agent.
