CLEANING
Clean your kettle regularly
to avoid lime­scale build­up.
Lime­scale build­up may
affect the performance of
your appliance.
CAUTION: Risk of burns:
Always allow the kettle to
cool down before clea­
ning.
• Unplug the mains
cable (1) from the socket by
pulling on the plug.
• Wipe down the base (2)
and jug (3) with a damp
cloth.
CAUTION: Risk of
damage to the kettle:
– Do not use any scou­
ring agents, abrasive
cleansers, sponges with
rough surfaces or hard
brushes.
– The kettle is not suitable
for washing in the dish­
washer.
Cleaning the lime­scale
filter
If the lime-scale filter starts
to clog up, causing the
water to flow out on either
side of the filter during pour­
ing, the filter needs to be
cleaned.
Note:
The hardness of the water
in your local area will
determine how often the
lime-scale filter needs to be
replaced.

Remove the lime­scale
filter (8).
• Immerse the lime­scale
filter in regular table vin­
egar.
• Remove any dirt with a
soft nylon brush.
• Rinse the lime-scale filter
with clear water and place it
back in the kettle.
De­scaling the jug
De­scale the jug if lime­
scale build­up is visible.
Note:
The hardness of the water

determine how often the jug
needs to be de­scaled.

approx. 1 litre of water and
press the "100°C" tempera­
ture button (4.4)
• As soon as the kettle
switches off automatically,
fill it up to the maximum fill

fill level indicator (5)) with
regular table vinegar.
• Leave this de­scaling
solution in the jug overnight.
• Empty the jug and then
re-fill and empty it 3 more

mercial de­scaling solutions
to de­scale the jug. In this
case, follow the manufac­
turer's instructions on the
packaging.
