Boil-Dry Protection; Cleaning And Maintenance - Salton SCK02 Instructions And Warranty

BOIL-DRY PROTECTION


Should you accidentally switch on an empty kettle - the boil-dry protection will
automatically switch off the power. If this occurs, allow the kettle to cool down
before filling with cold water.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE


Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use
and before cleaning.

Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, or hold it under a
running tap to clean.

To remove stubborn spots/marks, wipe the surfaces with a cloth slightly
dampened in soapy water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse and dry with a
clean, dry, soft cloth.

Unplug the base from the electrical socket, and let the kettle cool down before
cleaning.

Wipe the kettle, inside and out, with a damp cloth. You may use a little household
detergent, but if you do, rinse well.

Wipe the base with a damp cloth.

Keep all connectors and sockets dry.

Do not immerse the kettle or kettle base in liquid.

Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
We recommend that you descale your kettle regularly, even in soft water areas. Lime
scale may be white, coloured, or even rusty-looking, but it is normally visible. Phosphate
scale is not generally visible, but there is always a build-up, even in soft water areas.
Any build-up of scale causes overheating, which reduces the life of the element, and
may trigger the boil-dry cut-out to engage. So, even in a soft water area, descale at least
monthly, to help keep your kettle in working order.
To descale your kettle:

Use a descaler suitable for plastic products (all kettles have plastic parts). Follow
the instructions on the descaler, then rinse several times, fill, boil and discard the
water, to remove all chemical residues.
