liquids on the appliance. Do not immerse the kettle base, switch area, power base
or power cord in water to avoid risk of electric shock. Always keep the table or
counter clean and dry and immediately wipe off spilled liquids or condensate.
Do not place the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
1. Wipe the outside of the kettle with a damp cloth. In the same way, the power
base may be cleaned. Make sure not to spill or drip any liquids on the power
base.
2. Dry with a soft dry cloth. Polish the stainless steel parts with a soft cloth, when
required.

DECALCIFYING THE WATER CONTAINER

CAUTION: Never use abrasive cleaners, any chemicals, disinfectants, cleaning
pads or any sharp utensils (i.e. metal scouring pads) for cleaning. Handle the kettle
and power base without violation. Never place the appliance or any part of it in an
automatic dishwasher.
Depending on the water hardness in your residential area, mineral deposits build
up in the water container, causing decolouration and increasing energy loss. The-
refore we recommend to decalcify the water container regularly. We suggest using
Gastroback Premium descaler (Art.-No.: 98175).
1. Fill 100 ml Premium Descaler into the kettle. The bubble formation is part of the
chemical process of lime solution. The discaler attacks the lime immediately and
dissolves it.
2. Fill the kettle then completely with warm water and let the solution act over time
(possibly overnight). Thereby do not heat the kettle in any case!
3. Empty the solution from the kettle and rinse thoroughly with tap water.
4. After that the kettle will be ready for use.
