switching off before boiling,
check that the flat element
is free from scale - see
“descaling”.
lYour kettle is fitted with a filter to
hold back limescale particles.

descaling
lRegular descaling of the flat element
will improve the performance of your
kettle. If the kettle is not descaled
regularly the build up of limescale
may result in the following:
lproblems may be experienced
with the kettle switching on and
off during use or switching off
before boiling.
lthe kettle may take longer to boil.
lthe flat element may be damaged.
Please note: Failure to descale your
kettle may invalidate your guarantee.
lWhen limescale starts to build up on
the heating element, buy a suitable
descaler and descale your kettle.
After descaling, boil with fresh water
several times and discard. Clean
any descaler off the kettle - it can
damage the parts.
lSome regions of the country have
chalky water. This makes boiled
water look cloudy and leaves a
deposit on the side of the kettle. This
is normal but can be removed with
regular cleaning.
lAlternatively, to reduce limescale
build up, use filtered water to fill your
kettle.
service and customer
care
lIf the cord is damaged it must,
for safety reasons, be replaced
by KENWOOD or an authorised
KENWOOD repairer.
