CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Removing limescale deposits
■Limescale deposits inside the kettle may negatively aect its lifetime, so it
is important to regularly remove it based on how frequently the kettle is
used. During standard use (3 to 5 times per day), we recommend water scale
deposits be removed:
– once per month in areas with hard and very hard water;
– once every two to three months in areas with soft and medium hard
water.
■To remove limescale deposits it is possible to use:
– 8% white vinegar, generally available in stores. Fill the kettle with 1 litre of
water and¼ litre of vinegar. Bring the solution to aboil and leave it to act
in the kettle for 2 hours.Then empty the kettle and before further use, boil
clean water in it four to ve times.
– citric acid. Boil 1l of water in the kettle, into the boiled water, add 30 g of
citric acid and allow the solution to act for about 30 minutes. Then empty
the kettle and before further use, boil clean water in it four to ve times.
2. Cleaning the outer surface
■Before cleaning, disconnect the power cord from the power socket, empty
out the kettle and allow it to cool down.
■To clean the external parts of the kettle, use a dry cloth or a cloth lightly
dipped in aweak solution of neutral kitchen detergent. After applying the
detergent, wipe the surface with alightly damp cloth and then wipe dry.
■To clean the base, use only adry cloth.
■ For cleaning, never use steel wool, cleaning products with an abrasive eect,
petrol and other solvents.
