• Always unplug from the electrical outlet when not in use before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.

• At no time, before or during boiling and cleaning immerse unit, plug or cord in water, or any other liquids similarly under running water too – this is to protect against the starting of a fire and electric shock that could induce injury to persons. If the unit, plug or cord should fall into water or other liquids, unplug the cord from the electrical output immediately. DO NOT reach into the water.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

• Unplug your kettle and allow it to cool before cleaning.

• Dry all parts after every use.
• Never immerse kettle or power base in water.

REMOVABLE SCALE FILTER

• This kettle features a mesh filter to remove scale deposits and clean water.
• The filter can be removed by grasping it and pulling upward. Run under hot water and rub with a clean cloth or brush. Replace the filter; it will snap back into place.

DECALCIFICATION

• Decalcification refers to removing mineral deposits, which may form in the interior and on heating plate of the kettle over time. This can result in discolouration that can look the colour of rust. Please note this is NOT rust, the interior of the kettle is stainless steel and will not rust.

• To get the best performance from your Signature Kettle, decalcify your unit from time to time.
  Frequency will depend on the hardness of your tap water and how often you use your kettle.

• We suggest using a kettle descaler in order to dissolve these deposits or scale. Follow the directions on the descaler package.

• If a commercial descaler is not available, fill the kettle with enough white vinegar to cover the bottom by about 1cm. Heat the vinegar to a boil. Repeat this with cooled vinegar until all deposits are removed. When the descaling process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water.
