Cleaning and Storage

Always switch off and disconnect the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.

Also make sure the kettle has cooled down if recently in use. Wipe down the exterior of the kettle with a damp cloth. Use only water when cleaning the exterior as solvents could damage the finish.

WARNING: DO NOT immerse the kettle base, switch area, power base or power supplcord in water or any other liquid.

Cleaning the filter

Slide the filter out from the spout for cleaning.

Take care when cleaning the filter as the mesh can be damaged, use a soft brush or sponge to clear the mineral deposits.

Descaling/Removing Mineral Deposits

Due to using tap water, your kettle may appear discoloured inside from mineral deposits over time. This is not rust and can easily be managed by following the below instructions.

WARNING: To prevent damage to the appliance do not use alkaline cleaning agents or metal scourers when cleaning; use a soft cloth and mild detergents.

To remove the mineral deposits you can purchase kettle descaler products from most leading supermarkets, department stores and hardware stores. Be sure to read the instructions before use.

Alternatively you can use everyday household products to clean your kettle as well.

1. Open the kettle lid and fill with 3 cups of white vinegar and top up with water to

maximum level. Allow to stand overnight. DO NOT BOIL.

2. Remove the solution, refill with fresh water and bring to the boil then discard the

water. Repeat and this should remove any build ups.

Storage

Ensure the kettle is turned off, unplugged, clean and dry before storing it. Store the cord in the base and make sure the lid is closed and the kettle is correctly attached to the base.

Do not store anything on top of the kettle.
