strong tea.

the bottom of the pot, taking care to ensure that the washer at the bottom of the rod
is correctly centered in the hole.

the light will go off.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

„ „
The combination of limestone and tannin (brown deposit) from your tea in your kettle
can lead to impaired performance (tea not infused properly or not hot enough).
Furthermore, the taste of the tea can flavor the appliance and is likely to impair the
taste of the various varieties you may brew later
To avoid this happening, the whole kettle needs to be cleaned after each use.
To clean your kettle:
–
„
Unplug it.
–
„
Let it cool down.
–
„
Rinse the inside of the glass pot with a wet sponge and wipe the plastic parts with
a wet cloth.
–
„
Put the brewing basket and lid under hot water using your usual dishwashing liquid.
–
„
Always check that the electrical connections remain dry.
„ „
DO NOT USE scouring pads or any abrasive liquid, especially on the bottom
heating assembly, as this could damage your kettle.
