Important – Descaling your Kensington Kettle/Reducing Limescale Build up

• To prolong the life of your kettle it is imperative that it is descaled regularly.
• The frequency of the descaling depends on the hardness of the water in your area and how often the appliance is used.
• In extreme hard water areas, descaling your kettle at least once a month is highly recommended also the use of filtered water in your kettle will increase the life expectancy and help prevent excessive lime scale build up.
• If the kettle switches off before it boils or has a white deposit building up inside then it will need to be descaled.
• Do not use vinegar but a commercially available descaling agent; carefully follow the quantities recommended in the instructions of the agent:

1. Fill your kettle to the ‘MAX’ mark on the body or the water quantity recommended by the descaling product.
2. Add a descaling agent to the kettle according to the descaling products instructions.
3. Allow the kettle to boil, switch off and then stand to allow the kettle to soak for approximately 15 – 20 minutes, (if necessary, adjust the standing time to the descaling products instructions).
4. Finally, empty the kettle and refill with fresh clean water and allow to come to the boil and switch off once more, then again pour the water away. Your kettle is now descaled and cleaned.
