interior metal parts of the Electric Kettle. The
cleaning interval will depend on the hardness
of the water you put in the Electric Kettle.
Fill the Electric Kettle with white vinegar
to the .25 L mark. Add water to the .75 L
mark. Boil (100º C/ 212º F) and allow to
stand overnight.

located behind the spout inside Electric
Kettle. Grasp the top of the filter to
remove.
