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.
• using a de-scaler specifically for plastic kettles:
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Empty your kettle and rinse 5 or 6 times.
