CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR KETTLE
1. Unplug the kettle and allow to cool.
2. Once kettle is completely cool, gently wipe down exterior with a damp cloth or paper
towel.
3. Rinse the inside with water.
WARNING: Never immerse the kettle, its base, cord or plug in water or any other
liquids. The electrical connections and the on/off switch must never come into contact
with water or any other liquids.
4. Dry completely.
DESCALING
For the best tasting hot water, descale the kettle regularly to remove any mineral deposits
that may accumulate over time and cause discoloration. Descaling is recommended at least
once a month, or more regularly if your water is very hard.
TWO METHODS TO DESCALE:
• To descale with white vinegar: Fill the kettle with .4L water and .4L white vinegar. Press
on/off switch to boil. Once water comes to a boil and kettle shuts off, let stand for one
hour. Empty the kettle and rinse with water five to six times. Repeat if necessary.
• To descale with a descaling solution: Follow manufacturer's package instructions.
*Never use a descaling method other than recommended.
