6. DESCALING

For best performance, descale regularly. The amount of scale that develops depends on the hardness
of your water and how frequently the kettle is used. Descale regularly, preferably at least once a month,
more often if your water is very hard. Keep in mind that you may have to descale more often than
indicated based on your water.
To descale your kettle or filter:
Always unplug the base and allow the kettle to cool before cleaning.
Use plain white vinegar at room temperature. When descaling the kettle, fill with 2 cups of white vinegar
and leave for one hour without heating.
For the filter, remove the filter from the spout, and soak with 1 cup of white vinegar for one hour in a
small cup or bowl.
Rinse kettle and filter very well with room temperature water multiple times until completely clean.
Repeat if necessary and allow to dry before next use.
The warranty excludes kettles which have stopped working or do not work properly due to
lack of descaling.
