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
finish. Dry and polish with a soft cloth.
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 the power base in water or any other liquid.
Ensure the electric kettle socket is kept dry.
DESCALING
To limit scale build-up, we recommend you use only filtered or low-calcium water.
During use, lime deposits will form on the inside of your Cuisinart Jug Kettle. To get
the best performance from the 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.
