Descaling
After some time, the boiling process will re-
sult in limescale being deposited in parts of
the kettle (depending on the hardness of the
water used). You should remove this at regu-
lar intervals, because otherwise the power
consumption of the device will increase.
1. Pull the limescale filter 1 off upwards
from the kettle 2. If there is limescale
residue in the limescale filter 1, place it
in the kettle when descaling.
2. Fill the limescale remover into the ket-
tle 2. Use a commercially available li-
mescale remover, e.g. limescale
remover for coffee machines. Comply
with the instructions on the packaging
of the limescale remover. You can find
the next steps in the instructions of the li-
mescale remover. Rinse the kettle multi-
ple times after descaling, if necessary.
3. After descaling, rinse the limescale fil-
ter 1 well. Slot it into the intended fitting
in the kettle 2 and press it downwards.
Time intervals for descaling
The intervals for descaling are dependent
on the hardness of the water, and how often
you use the device. Where the hardness of
the water is medium or high, we recommend
descaling monthly.
If using tap water, you can find out the hard-
ness of the water in the area where you live
by inquiring at your local waterworks.
