CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Never immerse the kettle body, base, or power cord in water or place in a dishwasher.
WARNING: Do not use chemicals or abrasive cleaners internally or externally.

Unplug the kettle and allow to cool down before cleaning.
Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the kettle and base. Only use nonabrasive cleaning materials.
The scale filter can be easily removed. Open the lid, then grasp the filter and slide it out by pulling upwards.
The filter can be cleaned by running under a hot water tap and rubbing with a cloth or brush.
To replace the filter, slide it back into place at the back of the spout until it snaps in.

DESCALING
Your kettle will not work properly if it is not descaled regularly. Regular descaling can increase the life of the kettle, allowing it to boil water faster and with less energy. Scale is a naturally occurring buildup of mineral deposits caused by impurities in water, especially hard water. For best performance, descale the kettle every 4-8 weeks or whenever scale buildup is present inside. Descaling can be completed with a descaling agent specifically designed for kettles. Follow the directions on the descaling agent package,

OR

Fill the kettle with equal parts water and white vinegar.
Let sit for 30 minutes.
Discard solution and rinse kettle thoroughly with clean water.
Repeat this process until all deposits are removed.
