8.2 Descaling
In order to remove scale deposited inside the kettle and on the heating
element, prepare a water and vinegar solution (1 part of vinegar per 2
parts of water). Pour the solution into the cordless electric kettle and heat
it up, but DO NOT BOIL THE SOLUTION! Leave the solution in the cordless
electric kettle for ca. 1 hour, and then pour it out, fill the cordless electric
kettle with water up to the maximum level and boil the water. Pour the
water out and remove deposit residues with a damp cloth. If water at your
location leaves lots of scale, frequent descaling is recommended. Do not
perform descaling with the use of chemicals intended for coffee makers
or irons.
Attention! Descaling frequency depends on the quality and type of water
used. Descaling should be performed when you notice that more than ¼ of
the heating element surface is covered with scale.

centre representative or a properly qualified individual in order to avoid electrocution.
