Hints & Tips
Always use fresh, cold water each time you boil.
N.B. For your safety, always close the lid when the kettle is in use.
If the kettle is accidentally switched on without a sufficient water level, a boil dry
mechanism will automatically switch the kettle off.
For best results, empty the kettle after each use. Do not leave water standing in the
kettle. This is to help prevent build up of hard water limescale.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Always unplug the appliance from the mains outlet before cleaning.
Allow to cool before cleaning the appliance.
Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a clean damp cloth to preserve its original
high quality finish. Dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Clean the water filter with a soft, clean, damp cloth once a month or as necessary.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring agents of any kind on the interior or exterior
of the kettle.
WARNING! Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or other liquid. Ensure the
electric kettle socket is kept dry.

Descaling

To get the best performance from your Cuisinart Multi-Temp Jug Kettle, we recommend
descaling it from time to time. Frequency depends on the hardness of your tap water
and how often you use your kettle.
We suggest use of a kettle descaler in order to dissolve the scale. Simply follow the
manufacturer's guidelines on the packaging.
Alternatively pour in enough white vinegar to cover the bottom of the kettle by about
2cm. Bring the vinegar to the boil; you may need to repeat this several times with
cooled vinegar to remove the build-up completely. When the kettle is descaled, empty
the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water. Take care not to inhale fumes.
