MAINTENANCE AND CARE

SCALE FILTER
Scale, or calcium, is a natural substance that forms when
hard water is boiled. The filter serves to retain the calcium
in the water kettle.
CLEANING AND REMOVAL OF THE FILTER
It is important to clean the filter regularly. The filter clips
into the lid and can be removed by pulling it downwards
from the lid. It can be cleaned by gentle brushing with a soft
brush under running water.
KETTLE CLEAN AND DECALE
Remove scale using either a proprietary de-scaling product
suitable for plastic kettles (following the instructions
carefully), or citrid acid.
We recommend using citric acid as follows:
Boil 1 litre of water, then unplug the kettle and stand it
in an empty sink or bowl. Add 50gm of citric acid crystals
gradually, then leave the kettle to stand.
As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the kettle and
rinse it thoroughly with cold water. Wipe the outside of the
kettle thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove all traces of
citric acid which may damage the finish.
Do not use a more concentrated solution. Ensure that the
electrical connections are completely dry before using the
kettle. Citric acid crystals are available at most chemists.
– Failure to de-scale may invalidate the guarantee.
– Never use chemicals, steel wool or abrasive agents to
clean the exterior of the kettle.
– Only clean the appliance using a damp cloth.
– Never immerse the item in water: remember this is an
electrical applicant.
