or when descaling your kettle,
drop the filter in too. Rinse

4 To re-fit the scale filter, slide it in
until it rests on the notch under the
spout .
descaling
G
When limescale builds up on the
heating element, buy a suitable
descaler and descale your kettle.
Limescale makes your kettle take
longer to boil and can make the
element burn out. After descaling,
boil with fresh water several times
and discard. Clean any descaler
off the kettle - it can damage the
parts.
G
Some regions of the country have
chalky water. This makes boiled
water look cloudy and leaves a
deposit on the side of the kettle.
This is normal but can be removed
with regular cleaning.
G
Alternatively, to reduce limescale
build up, use filtered water to fill
your kettle.
