CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Switch the power off and remove the plug from the wall power outlet.
•
Allow the kettle to cool down fully.
•
Wipe over the outside of the kettle and power base with a damp cloth. A mild dishwashing
detergent may be used if required.
•
Keep all connectors and sockets dry.
•
Do not immerse the kettle or power base in liquid.
•
Do not use alkaline cleaning agents or harsh abrasives when cleaning this appliance.
•
Clean the inside of the kettle using the instructions in the "DE-SCALE REGULARLY" section.
DE-SCALE REGULARLY – EVEN IN SOFT WATER AREAS
Water contains minerals that will form deposits on the inside of your kettle, commonly referred to as scaling.
Scaling discolours the internal surfaces and can affect the heating and noise performance.
To maintain the performance of your kettle, it should be de-scaled every three months or so. De-scale
more frequently if you live in a hard water area.
•
Add a commercially available de-scaler to the empty kettle, in accordance with the
instructions on the de-scaler packaging (Available from your supermarket).
•
Fill the kettle with fresh cold water to the MAX level mark on the water gauge.
•
Switch the ON/OFF switch to ON and allow the kettle to boil.
•
Once the water has boiled allow the kettle to cool.
•
Once the kettle has cooled, discard the water into the sink.
RINSE AFTER DE-SCALING
•
Fill the kettle with fresh cold water to the MAX level mark on the water gauge.
•
Switch the ON/OFF switch to ON and allow the kettle to boil.
•
Discard the water into the sink.
•
Rinse 1 or 2 times further with fresh water as required.
NOTE: Products returned under warranty with faults due to scale may be subject to a
repair charge.
WATER FILTER
Scale particles suspended in the water may give it a cloudy or greasy appearance. The filter will
prevent these particles going into your drink. Remove and clean the filter regularly.
CLEANING THE FILTER
•
Check your hands are free from soap, hand cream, or anything which might leave a taint.
•
Switch the power off and remove the plug from the wall power outlet.
•
Allow the kettle to cool down fully.
•
Press the lid lock button to open the lid.
•
Pull the filter up and out of its housing.
NOTE: Take care not to press on the mesh part of the filter – you may damage it.
•
Rinse the filter under a running tap whilst brushing with a soft brush.
•
Rinse the kettle in case scale particles have fallen inside.
•
Turn the filter so the tab at the top of the filter faces the rear of the kettle.
•
Slide it down into the guides in the filter housing. Ensure it is firmly in place.
•
Refill the kettle and close the lid.
Caution: Do not use the kettle without the filter in place – it may spit boiling water.
