Cleaning and maintenance

CLEANING YOUR KETTLE
Unplug it.
Let it cool down and clean it with a damp sponge.
• Never immerse the kettle, its base, the cord or the electric plug in water: the electrical connections or the switch must not come into
contact with water.
• Do not use scouring pads.
CLEANING THE FILTER (Fig. 5)
The removable filter consists of a mesh to retain the particles of scale and prevent them falling into your cup when
pouring. This filter neither treats nor removes the hardness of the water. It thus conserves all the qualities of the water.
With very hard water, the filter can clog very quickly (10 to 15 uses). It is important to clean it regularly. If it is wet, put
it under a running tap, if dry, then brush it gently. Sometimes the scale will not detach itself; it will then need descaling.
De-scale regularly, preferably at least once a month or more frequently if your water is very hard.
• Using white vinegar: Fill the kettle with ½ l of vinegar. Leave to stand for 1 hour without heating.
• Using citric acid: Boil ½ l of water. Add 25 g of citric acid and leave to stand for 15 min.
• Empty your kettle and rinse 5 or 6 times. Repeat if necessary.
To de-scale your filter:
Soak the filter in white vinegar or diluted citric acid.
• Never use a de-scaling method other than that recommended.

In the event of problems

THERE IS NO EVIDENT DAMAGE TO YOUR KETTLE
• The kettle does not work or stops before coming to the boil
− Check that your kettle is properly connected.
− The kettle has been switched on without water or an accumulation of scale has caused the overheat cut-out to
operate: allow the kettle to cool and fill it with water. Descale first if scale has accumulated.
Switch it on: the kettle should start working again after about 15 minutes.
• The water tastes of plastic:
IF YOUR KETTLE HAS BEEN DROPPED, IF IT LEAKS OR IF THERE IS VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE POWER CORD, THE PLUG
OR THE BASE OF THE KETTLE
For a child, a burn or scald, even if slight, can sometimes be serious.
As they grow up, teach your children to beware of hot liquids to be found in the kitchen. Position the kettle and its supply
cord well to the rear of the work surface, out of the reach of children.
If an accident does occur, run cold water over the scald immediately and call a doctor if necessary.
• In order to avoid any accident: do not carry your child or baby at the same time as drinking or carrying a hot drink.
