Note: This appliance is equipped with a safety device that automatically interrupts the heating in case it inadvertently switched on when it is empty, with little water or with too many deposits of limestone. In this case, remove the kettle from the base and allow it to cool completely before filling it again with water. If necessary, carry out the descaling. Avoid in any cable to operate the kettle when it is empty or with a little water because this would cause a shorter duration of the heating element.

Maintenance

• Disconnect the plug from the socket and let the appliance cool down well before cleaning it.
• To clean, open the appliance and remove food residues from the plates.
• For cleaning of the plates, use a sponge or a soft cloth dampened with hot water; do not use steel wool or other abrasive items which could damage the non-stick coating.

• In the case of normal use (up to 5 times per day), we recommend that you remove the lime and to make this operation about once a month:
• Fill water to the kettle to three-quarters of its maximum capacity, and bring to a boil.
• After you have turned off the kettle, pour white vinegar up to the maximum level.
• Let the solution for a few hours or the whole night.
• Empty the kettle and risciacquatelo carefully.
