Cleaning and Maintenance:
CLEANING YOUR KETTLE
.Unplug it.
.Let it cool down and clean it with a damp sponge.
·Never immerse the kettle,its base,the cord or the electric plug in water: the electrical
connections or the switch must not come into contact with water.
·Do not use scouring pads.
CLEANING THE FILTER
.The removable filter consists of a mesh to retain the particles of scale and prevent
them falling into your cup when pouring. This filter neither treats nor removes the
hardness of the water. It thus conserves all the qualities of the water. With very hard
water, the filter can clog very quickly (10 to 15 uses). It is important to clean it
regularly. If it is wet, put it under a running tap, if dry, then brush it gently. Sometimes
the scale will not detach itself, it will then need descaling.
·To remove the anti-scale filter, lift the kettle off its base and allow to cool. Never
remove the filter when the appliance is full of hot water.
De-scaling
De-scale regularly, preferably at least once a month or more frequently if your water is
very hard.
To de-scale your kettle:
Using white vinegar:
.Fill the kettle with 1/2 liter of vinegar.
.Leave to stand for 1 hour without heating.
Using citric acid:
-Boil 1/2 liter of water.
-Add 25g of citric acid and leave to stand for 15 min.
Using a de-scaler specifically for plastic kettles:
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions
·Empty your kettle and rinse 5 or 6 times. Repeat if necessary.
To de-scale your filter:
.Soak the filter in white vinegar or diluted citric acid.
·Never use a de-scaling method other than that recommended.
Please use and keep the kettle and its supply
