Depending on the water hardness in your area, scale may build up inside the
kettle over time. Scale may affect the performance of the kettle. Descale the
kettle regularly by following the instructions in the user manual.
We recommend the following descaling frequency:
-
Once every 3 months for soft water areas (up to 18dH).
-
Once every month for hard water areas (more than 18dH).
Use white vinegar (4% acetic acid) in step 6. Rinse the kettle and then boil
twice (steps 10-12) to remove all vinegar.
