Before first use, fill the Electric Kettle to the maximum level, then boil and discard the water.
NOTE: The Electric Kettle is designed for water only. Do not put any other liquids or substances in the Electric Kettle.
Before cleaning always disconnect the Electric Kettle from electrical outlet. Make sure the Electric Kettle has cooled completely.
The Electric Kettle features a removable mesh filter that traps scale deposits for cleaner water. The filter will need to be cleaned periodically — more often if you have hard water.
NOTE: If calcium deposits remain on the filter, let it stand overnight in a solution of water and white vinegar. Rinse the filter thoroughly and replace in the Electric Kettle.
To get the best performance from your Electric Kettle, decalcification will be necessary. Calcium deposits may form on the interior metal parts of the Electric Kettle. The cleaning interval will depend on the hardness of the water you put in the Electric Kettle.
