Getting the best from your new kettle...
Safety first
Always pour water slowly and carefully to prevent the
splashing of scalding water.
Empty the water out of the kettle after first boiling
To clean away any deposits that are left in the kettle after
the manufacturing process.
Descale as appropriate for the hardness of the water in
your area
It is important to descale as the performance of the kettle
for auto switch-off will be impaired.
Fast boil kettles perform differently
If your kettle is a fast boil model, it may sound louder
during boiling, and switch off suddenly with no after noise -
this is normal.
